τ-additivity

In mathematics, in the field of measure theory, τ-additivity is a certain property of measures on topological spaces.

A measure µ on a space X, defined on a sigma-algebra Σ is said to be τ-additive, if for any upward-directed family ${\mathcal {G}}\subseteq \Sigma$ of nonempty open sets, such that its union is in Σ, the measure of the union is the supremum of measures of elements of ${\mathcal {G}}$ , i.e.:

\mu \left(\bigcup {\mathcal {G}}\right)=\sup _{G\in {\mathcal {G}}}\mu (G)
