Abstract
LetE be a vector lattice of real-valued functions defined on a setX, and ℋ(E):={{f⩾1}:f∈E}. Among others, it is shown that, under some additional assumptions onE, every measure that integrates all functionsf∈E is ϰ(E)-τ-smooth iffX is ϰ (E)-complete. An application of this general result to various topological situations yields some new measure-theoretic characterizations of realcompact, Borel-complete andN-compact spaces, respectively.
