Abstract
Kalton and Roberts [Trans. Amer. Math. Soc., 278 (1983), 803--816] proved that there exists a universal constant such that for every set algebra and every 1-additive function there exists a finitely-additive signed measure defined on such that for any . The only known lower bound for the optimal value of was found by Pawlik [Colloq. Math., 54 (1987), 163--164], who proved that this constant is not smaller than ; we improve this bound to already on a non-negative 1-additive function.
