ABSTRACT:
In this paper we deal with some class of continuous partition
lattices, introduced by A. Bjorner in 1987 as a limit of finite partition
lattices.  We describe the direct way how to construct  the continuous
partition lattice in terms of measurable partitions of the
measure space and present a simple realization of such lattices.
Secondly, we give a representation of continuous
partition lattice in a factor of type II_1  and in the
continuous geometries in the sense of von~Neumann. Thirdly, the
continuous hyperfinite partition lattice is used to state and solve
one natural asymptotical problem.
