### On the Cadlaguity of Random Measures

#### Abstract

We consider finitely additive random measures taking independent values on disjoint Borel sets in $R^k$, and ask when such measures, restricted to some subclass $\mathscr{A}$ of closed Borel sets, possess versions which are "right continuous with left limits", in an appropriate sense. The answer involves a delicate relationship between the "Levy measure" of the random measure and the size of $\mathscr{A}$, as measured via an entropy condition. Examples involving stable measures, Dudley's class $I(k, \alpha, M)$ of sets in $R^k$ with $\alpha$-times differentiable boundaries, and convex sets are considered as special cases, and an example given to show what can go wrong when the entropy of $\mathscr{A}$ is too large.
