A subset B of an algebra A of subsets of a set Ω has property (N) if each B-pointwise bounded sequence of the Banach space ba(A) is bounded in ba(A), where ba(A) is the Banach space of real or complex bounded finitely additive measures defined on A endowed with the variation norm. B has property (G) [(VHS)] if for each bounded sequence [if for each sequence] in ba(A) the B-pointwise convergence implies its weak convergence. B has property (sN) [(sG) or (sVHS)] if every increasing covering {Bn:n∈N} of B contains a set Bp with property (N) [(G) or (VHS)], and B has property (wN) [(wG) or (wVHS)] if every increasing web {Bn1n2⋯nm:ni∈N,1≤i≤m,m∈N} of B contains a strand {Bp1p2⋯pm:m∈N} formed by elements Bp1p2⋯pm with property (N) [(G) or (VHS)] for every m∈N. The classical theorems of Nikodým–Grothendieck, Valdivia, Grothendieck and Vitali–Hahn–Saks say, respectively, that every σ-algebra has properties (N), (sN), (G) and (VHS). Valdivia’s theorem was obtained through theorems of barrelled spaces. Recently, it has been proved that every σ-algebra has property (wN) and several applications of this strong Nikodým type property have been provided. In this survey paper we obtain a proof of the property (wN) of a σ-algebra independent of the theory of locally convex barrelled spaces which depends on elementary basic results of Measure theory and Banach space theory. Moreover we prove that a subset B of an algebra A has property (wWHS) if and only if B has property (wN) and A has property (G).
