Abstract

Based on the Zermelo-Fraenkel system of axioms ZF, we introduce a theory of essential closures. It is a generalization of the concept of topological closures. A typical essential closure collects all points which are essential with respect to a submeasure; hence it is called a submeasure closure. One of our main results states that a “nice” essential closure must be a submeasure closure. Many examples of known and new submeasure closures are discussed and their applications are demonstrated, especially in the study of the supports of measures.
