Abstract

In this paper, we use some methods of combinatorial set theory, in particular, the ones related to the construction of independent families of sets and also some modified version of the notion of small sets originally introduced by Riečan and Neubrunn, to give an abstract and generalized formulation of a remarkable theorem of Kakutani and Oxtoby related to a nonseparable invariant extension of the Lebesgue measure in spaces with transformation groups.
