A signed measure is a countably additive real-valued set function, allowing negative values. A finite signed measure has a variation measure, whose total mass is its total variation norm of a measure.

A signed measure is a generalization of the concept of a measure, which is a mathematical tool used to assign a size or volume to subsets of a given space, particularly in the context of measure theory. While a traditional measure assigns a non-negative value to subsets, a signed measure allows for the assignment of both positive and negative values.
