Normal lattices and coseparation of lattices

Let X be an arbitrary non-empty set, and let ℒ be a lattice of subsets of X such that ∅, X∈ℒ. We first summarize a number of known conditions which are equivalent to ℒ being normal. We then develop new equivalent conditions in terms of set functions associated with μ∈I(ℒ), the set of all non-trivial...
