(b) If M is a σ-algebra on X, then the pair (X, M ) is called a measurable space. If M is understood, then X will be called a measurable space. The members of M are called measurable sets. (c) If (X, M ) and (Y, N ) are measurable spaces and f : X Y satisfies f -1 (E) M for each E N , then f is called (M , N )-measurable. If M and N are understood, we just say f is measurable. Example 13: (a) If X 6= , then M = {∅,X} is the trivial measurable space. (b) If X 6= then M = P(X) is the discrete measurable space. (c) If X = R, ,then M = {∅, {0} , R \{0} , R} is a σ-algebra.

1 Abstract Measure Theory

Def 12: 1 (a) A collection M of subsets of X is a σ-algebra if it has the following properties: i) ∅, X ∈ M , ii)If E ∈ M then Ec ∈ M , and iii) if Ei∞i=1 ⊆ M then ∪∞i=1Ei ∈ M . (b) If M is a σ-algebra on X, then thepair (X,M ) is called a measurable space. If M is understood, then X will be called a measurable space. Themembers of M are called measurable sets. (c) If (X,M ) and (Y,N ) are measurable spaces and f : X → Ysatisfies f−1(E) ∈ M for each E ∈ N , then f is called (M ,N )-measurable. If M and N are understood, wejust say f is measurable.

Example 13: (a) If X 6= ∅, then M = ∅, X is the trivial measurable space. (b) If X 6= ∅ then M = P(X) isthe discrete measurable space. (c) If X = R, ,then M = ∅, 0 ,R \ 0 ,R is a σ-algebra. (e) If X 6= ∅, thenM = E ⊆ X : E or Ec is countable is a σ-algebra.

Lma 14: (Disjoint Dissection) If Ej∞j=1 ⊆P(X) then Fk∞k=1 ⊆P(X) defined by F1 := E1 and Fk = Ek \ (∪k−11 Ej)

we denote this σ-algebra by M (E).Def 17: Let (X, T ) be a topological space. The σ-algebra M (T ) is called the Borel σ-algebra on X. It is denoted by

B(X,T ) or BX . Elements of BX are called Borel sets.Def 18: Let (X, T ) be a topological space. Set Fσ := countable unions of closed sets in X,

Gδ := countable intersections of open sets in X, Fσδ := countable intersections of sets in Fσ, etc.Rmrk: All are subcollections of BX .Prop 19: BR is generated by any of the following : E1 = (a, b) : a < b, E2 = [a, b] : a < b, E3 = (a, b] : a < b, E4 =[a, b) : a < b, E5 = (a,∞) : a ∈ R, E6 = (−∞, a) : a ∈ R, E7 = [a,∞) : a ∈ R, or E8 = (−∞, a] : a ∈ R.

Rmrk: The Borel σ-algebra on R can be generated by E =

(a,∞] : a ∈ R

or E =

. We also haveBR =

E ⊆ R : E ∩ R ∈ BR

Prop 20: Let (X,M ) and (Y,N ) be measure spaces. If N = M (E) for some E ⊆ P(X), then f : X → Y is(M ,N )-measurable if and only if f−1(E) ∈M for all E ∈ E .

Cor 21: If f : X → Y , with X and Y topological spaces, is continuous, then f is (BX ,BY )-measurable.Prop 22: If (X,M ) is a measurable space and f : X → R then, for all a ∈ R, TFAE: (a) f is measurable; (b)

f−1((a,∞)) ∈M ; (c) f−1([a,∞)) ∈M ; (d) f−1((−∞, a)) ∈M ; (e) f−1((−∞, a]) ∈M .Def 23: 3 Let (Yα,Nα)α∈A be a family of measurable spaces. If fα : Xα → Yα is a map for each α ∈ A, then the

σ-algebra or X generated by fαα∈A is the σ-algebra generated byf−1α (E) : α ∈ A and E ∈ Nα

.

Prop 24: Let (X,M ) be a measurable space, and let f, g : X → R be measurable. Then

(a) |f | and f2 are measurable;

(b) αf , α+ f are measurable for all α ∈ R;

(c) If f is never 0, then 1/f is measurable;

(d) the set x ∈ X : f(x) > g(x) ∈M ;

(e) f + g, f − g are measurable;

(f) f · g is measurable;

(g) If g is never 0 then f/g is measurable.

Cor 25: If f : X → C is measurable, then so is sgn(f), where sgn(z) = z/|z| if z 6= 0 and 0 if z = 0.Prop 26: If fj∞j=1 is a sequence of R-valued functions on (X,M ) then g1(x) = sup

measurable.Cor 27: 4 If f, g : X → R are measurable, then x 7→ max f(x), g(x) and x 7→ min f(x), g(x) are measurable.Cor 28: If f : X → R is measurable, then so are f+, f−, and |f |.Def 29: A simple function on X is a measurable function with finite range, which is a subset of R (or C). In particular,

a simple function is bounded. If ϕ : X → R is simple, then Ran (ϕ) = a1, · · · , an, and for each j ∈ 1, · · · , n theset Ej = ϕ−1(aj) is measurable and ∪nj=1Ej = X. The standard representation for ϕ is ϕ =

2 ABSTRACT INTEGRATION Analysis Study Guide

Thm 30: Let (X,M ) be a measurable space. If f : X → [0,∞] is measurable, then there is a sequence ϕj∞j=1 of simplefunctions such that (1) 0 ≤ ϕ1 ≤ ϕ2 ≤ · · · ; (2) limj→∞ ϕj(x) = f(x) for all x ∈ X; and (3), ϕj → f uniformly onany set where f is uniformly bounded. (An analogous result holds if f has complex range.)

Def 31: 5 Let (X,M ) be a measurable space.

(a) A (positive) measure on the σ-algebra M is a function µ : M → [0,∞] with µ(∅) = 0 and if Ej∞j=1 is asequence of mutually disjoint sets then µ(∪∞1 Ej) =

∑j µ(Ej).

(b) A measure space is a triple (X,M , µ) with µ a measure.

Def 32: Let (X,M , µ) be a measure space.

(a) µ is called semifinite if for each E ∈ M with µ(E) > 0 there is a subset F ∈ M such that F ⊆ E and0 < µ(F ) <∞.

(b) µ is called σ-finite if X = ∪∞j=1Ej for some Ej∞j=1 ⊆M and µ(Ej) <∞ for all j ∈ N.

(c) A set E ∈M is called σ-finite if E = ∪∞j=1Ej for some Ej∞j=1 ⊆M with µ(Ej) <∞ for j ∈ N.

(d) µ is called finite if µ(X) <∞.

(e) µ is called a probability measure if µ(X) = 1.

Example 33:

(a) Suppose X is nonempty. Define µ : P(X)→ [0,∞] by µ(E) = card(E) if E is finite, and µ(E) =∞ otherwise.Then µ is semifinite, µ is σ-finite iff X is countable, and E ⊆ X is σ-finite iff E is countable.

(b) Let X be nonempty. Define M = E ⊆ X : E or Ec is countable and µ : M → [0,∞) by µ(E) = 0 if E iscountable and µ(E) = 1 if E is uncountable.

(c) Let (X,M ) be a measure space. Let x0 ∈M be given. Define µ : M → [0,∞] by µ(E) = 1 if x0 ∈ E andµ(E) = 0 otherwise. This is called a point mass or Dirac measure at x0. We denote it by δx0 .

Def 34: If (X,M , µ) is a measure space, then a µ-null set, or null set, in X is a set such E such that µ(E) = 0.Def 35: If statement P is true for all x ∈ E with µ(X \ E) = 0 then we say that P holds almost everywhere in X.Def 36: Let (X,M , µ) be a measure space. The measure µ is called complete if whenever E ∈M is a null set we also

find F ∈M for each F ⊆ E.Thm 37: Suppose that (X,M ) is a measure space. Set N := N ∈M : µ(N) = 0, and

M := E ∪ F : E ∈M and F ⊆ N ∈ N . Then M is a σ-algebra and there exists a unique extension of µ, µ toM , where µ is complete.

Def 38: The measure space (X,M , µ) is called the completion of (X,M , µ).Thm 39: 6 Let (X,M , µ) be a measure space. Then µ has the following properties:

• (Monotonicity) If E,F ∈M and E ⊆ F then µ(E) ≤ µ(F ).

• (Countable subadditivity) If Ej∞j=1 ⊆M then µ(∪∞j=1Ej) ≤∑∞j=1 µ(Ej).

• (Continuity from below) Ej∞j=1 ⊆M and Ej ⊆ Ej+1 for all j then µ(∪∞j=1Ej) = limj→∞ µ(Ej).

• (Continuity from above) If Ej∞j=1 ⊆M and Ej ⊇ Ej+1 and µ(E1) <∞ then µ(∩∞j=1Ej) = limj→∞

µ(Ej).

(a)∫Efdµ =

∫Egdµ for all E ∈M .

(b)∫X|f − g|dµ = 0

(c) f = g µ-a.e.

Def 56: We define L1(X,µ), or just L1(X), L1(µ), or L1, to be the collection of equivalence classes given in Proposition55.

Prop 57: Suppose that µ is a complete measure.

(a) If f is measurable and f = g µ-a.e. then g is measurable.

(b) If fj∞j=1 is a sequence of measurable functions and limj→∞ fj = f exists µ-a.e. x ∈ X then f is measurable.(cf. Proposition 2.6)

3 Some Functional Analysis

Def 64: 12 A seminorm on X is a function ||·|| : X → [0,∞) such that ||x+ y|| ≤ ||x||+ ||y|| for all x, y ∈ X and||λx|| = |λ| · ||x|| for all λ ∈ E and x ∈ X. If a seminorm satisfies ||x|| = 0 if and only if x = 0 then we say ||·|| is anorm on X.

Example 65: 13

(a) Rn is a v.s. The function ||·||p : Rn → [0,∞) defined by ||x||p :=(∑n

j=1 |xj |p)1/p

for p ∈ [1,∞) is a norm onRn. Also, ||·||∞ : Rn → [0,∞) defined by ||x||∞ = max |x1|, · · · , |xn| is also a norm on Rn.

(b) Define ||·||1 : L1(µ) → [0,∞) by ||f ||1 :=∫X|f |dµ. It is easily verified that (L1(µ), ||·||1) is a normed vector

space.

Def 66: Two norms ||·|| and ||·||] on X are equivalent if there are constants C1, C2 > 0 finite such that C1 ||x|| ≤||x||] ≤ C2 ||x|| for all x ∈ X. Equivalent norms induce the same topologies.

Example 67: In Rn, each of the norms ||·||p for p ∈ [1,∞) are equivalent. In RN, the norms ||x||p =(∑∞

j=1 |xj |p)1/p

where x = xj∞j=1 ∈ RN are not equivalent as p varies.Def 68: If (X, ||·||) is a complete normed vector space with respect to the metric ρ||·|| then we call (X, ||·||), or just X,

a Banach space (or a B-space).

Def 69: Let (X, ||·||) be given. Let xj∞j=1 ⊆ X be given. The series∑∞j=1 xj converges to x ∈ X iff lim

N∑j=1

xj = x

with respect to the norm; i.e., limN→∞

||xj || <∞.

Thm 70: (p. 152) A normed vector space is complete iff all absolutely convergent sequences converge in X.Thm 71: The normed vector space (L1(µ), ||·||) is a B-space.Prop 72: 14 The set of simple functions on L1(µ) is dense in L1(µ) with respect to the strong (norm) topology.Def 73: 15 For each p ∈ (0,∞), define Lp(X,µ) by Lp(X,µ) :=

f meas :

∫X|f |p dµ <∞

. Define L∞(X,µ) :=

f measurable : ess supx∈X |f(x)| <∞. Here, for f : X → R measurable, then

ess supx∈X f(x) := infa ∈ R : µ(x ∈ X : f(x) > a) = 0

.

In other words, f(x) ≤ ess supx∈X f(x) a.e. and ess supx∈X f(x) is the smallest number such that this inequalityholds.

Def 74: For each p ∈ (0,∞), define ||·||p : Lp(µ)→ [0,∞) by ||f ||p =(∫X|f |p dµ

)1/p. Define ||·||∞ : L∞(X,µ)→ [0,∞)by ||f ||∞ := ess supx∈X |f(x)|. The triangle inequality is only satisfied if p ≥ 1.

Rmrk: It follows from Minkowski that the functions ||·||p are norms in Lp for p ∈ [1,∞). The case for p = ∞ can beproved directly.

Thm 78: 16 The normed vector space (Lp(µ), ||·||p) is a B-space for all p ∈ [1,∞].Prop 79: For each p ∈ [1,∞], the simple functions are dense in Lp with respect to the norm topology.Prop 80: 17 If 1 ≤ p ≤ q ≤ r ≤ ∞ then Lp ∩ Lr ⊆ Lq and ||f ||q ≤ ||f ||

• We say fj → f uniformly in X if for all ε > 0 there exists an N(ε) ∈ N such that for all n ≥ N(ε) we have|fn(x)− f(x)| < ε.

• We say fj → f pointwise if for each x ∈ X and ε > 0 there is N(ε, x) ∈ N such for j ≥ N(ε, x) we have|fj(x)− f(x)| < ε.

4 Construction of Measures

4.1 Caratheodory’s Approach

Thm (Ulam):20 Suppose that µ is a measure on R such that every subset E ⊆ R is measurable. If µ([n, n+ 1)) <∞for each n ∈ Z and µ(x) = 0 for each x ∈ R, then µ(E) = 0 for all E ⊆ R.

Def 88: A family of sets E ⊆P(X) is a semi-algebra (or elementary family) on X if it has the following properties:

(a) ∅, X ∈ E

(b) If E1, E2 ∈ E then E1 ∩ E2 ∈ E

(c) If E ∈ E then Ec = ∪ni=1Ei where Ei is a finite disjoint sequence of sets in E .

Example 89:

(a) I := open, half-closed, half-open, closed intervals in R.

(b) In := cartesian product of n elements of I.

Notation: I(a, b) will be used to denote any one of the intervals (a, b), (a, b], [a, b], or [a, b), for all a, b ∈ R which makesense. Define I =

I(a, b) : a ≤ b, a, b ∈ R

and In =

∏nj=1 I(aj , bj) : aj ≤ bj for j = 1, · · · , n

.

Def 90: 21 Given n ∈ N, define mn : In → [0,∞] by mn(∏n

j=1 I(aj , bj))

=∏nj=1(bj − aj). When n is understood, we

write m for mn.Def 91: Let E ⊆P(X) be a semi-algebra. A set function µ : E → [0,∞] is called

• monotone if µ(E) ≤ µ(F ) whenever E,F ∈ E and E ⊆ F .

• finitely additive if µ(∪nj=1Ej) =n∑j=1

µ(Ej) whenever Ejnj=1 ⊆ E is a sequence of mutually disjoint sets with

∪nj=1Ej ∈ E .

• countably additive if µ(∪∞j=1Ej) =∞∑j=1

µ(Ej) whenever Ej∞j=1 ⊆ E are mutually disjoint and ∪∞j=1Ej ∈ E .

• countably subadditive if µ(∪∞j=1Ej) ≤∞∑j=1

µ(Ej) whenever Ej∞j=1 ⊆ E and ∪∞j=1Ej ∈ E .

Example 92: It is possible to show that mn is monotone, finitely additive, and countably subadditive (and countablyadditive, but this is hard to show).

Def 93: A family of sets A ⊆P(X) is called an algebra if

(a) ∅, X ∈ A

(b) If E1, E2 ∈ A then E1 ∩ E2 ∈ A

(c) If E ∈ A then Ec ∈ A.

Prop 94: 22 Let C ⊆ P(X) be given. Then there exists a unique smallest algebra A(C) ⊆ P(X) such that C ⊆ A(C)and if F ⊆P(X) is an algebra containing C then A(C) ⊆ F .

Def 95: The algebra provided by Proposition 94 is called the algebra generated by C.Prop 96: Suppose that E ⊆P(X) is a semi-algebra. Then

A(E) =E ⊆ X : E = ∪nj=1Ej for some disjoint sequence Ejnj=1 ⊆ E

Example 97:A(I) = finite unions of intervals in R, and A(In) = finite unions of boxes in Rn.Thm 98: Suppose that µ is a finitely-additive, countably subadditive set function on a semi-algebra E such that µ(∅) = 0.

Then there exists a unique countably subadditive set function µ on A(E) extending µ.Thm 99: Let A be an algebra of sets and let µ : A → [0,∞] such that µ(∅) = 0 be given. Then µ is countably additive

if and only if µ is finitely additive and countably subadditive.Def 100: 23 Suppose that A ⊆P(X) is an algebra. A function µ : A → [0,∞] is a premeasure on A if

(a) µ(∅) = 0

(b) µ(∪∞j=1Ej

)=∞∑j=1

(Ej) whenever Ej∞j=1 is mutually disjoint and ∪∞j=1Ej ∈ A.

Notation: Denote the left-open and right-closed intervals in R by H, so

H := (a, b] : (a, b] ⊆ R ∪

(a,∞) : a ∈ R.

Now, H is a semi-algebra, and BR will be generated by H. Given a function F : R→ R, define F (∞) := limx→∞

F (x)

and F (−∞) := limx→−∞

F (x), provided the limits exist in R.

Prop 101: Let F : R→ R be a non-decreasing function. Define µF : H → [0,∞] by µF ((a, b]) := F (b)−F (a) if (a, b] ⊆ Rand µF ((a,∞)) := F (∞)− F (a) if a ∈ [−∞,∞). Then µF is well-defined. Moreover, if µF is right-continuous, thenµF is countably subadditive.

Prop 102: 24 Let F : R → R be non-decreasing and right-continuous. Define µF : H → [0,∞] as in Proposition 101.

Then µF : A(H) → [0,∞] defined by µF (∪nj=1Ij) =n∑j=1

µF (Ij) whenever Ijnj=1 ⊆ H is mutually disjoint is a

premeasure on A(H).Prop 103: Suppose that µ : H → [0,∞] is finitely additive and µ((a, b]) <∞ for each a, b ∈ R. Then there is a function

F : R → R that is nondecreasing such that µ((a, b]) = F (b) − F (a) for all a, b ∈ R. If µ is countably additive, thenF is right-continuous and µ = µF .

Def 104: 25 An outer measure on X is a monotone countably subadditive set function µ∗ : P(X)→ [0,∞] such thatµ∗(∅) = 0.

Prop 105: Let C ⊆P(X) and ρ : C→ [0,∞] such that ∅, X ∈ C and ρ(∅) = 0. For each E ⊆ X define

µ∗(E) := inf

∞∑j=1

ρ(Ej) : Ej ⊆ C, E ⊆ ∪∞j=1Ej

.Then µ∗ is an outer measure.

Def 106: We call µ∗ in Proposition 105 the outer measure induced by ρ.Def 107: If µ∗ is an outer measure on X then a set A ⊆ X is called µ∗-measurable if µ∗(E) = µ∗(E∩A) +µ∗(E∩Ac)

for all E ⊆ X.

Thm 108: (Caratheodory’s Theorem) If µ∗ is an outer measure on X, then the collection M of µ∗-measurable sets is aσ-algebra. Moreover, the restriction of µ∗ to M is a complete measure.

Prop 109: 26 If µ is a premeasure on an algebra A ⊆P(X) and µ∗ is the outer measure induced by µ then µ∗|A = µand every set of A is µ∗-measurable.

Thm 110: Let A ⊆P(X) be an algebra and let M (A) be the σ-algebra generated by A. Let µ be a premeasure on A.

(a) There is a measure µ on M (A) such that µ|A = µ. (In fact, µ = µ∗|M (A).

(b) If ν is another measure extending µ to M (A), then ν(E) ≤ µ(E) for all E ∈M (A), and µ(E) = ν(E) wheneverµ(E) <∞.

(c) If µ is σ-finite then µ is the unique extension of µ to a measure on M (A).

Rmrk: 27 Recall (Proposition 102) that if F : R→ R is a non-decreasing right-continuous function then µF : A(H)→[0,∞] is a premeasure on A(H). Since µF is σ-finite on R, there is a unique extension of µF to a measure µF onthe σ-algebra generated by A(H), which is BR. Actually, Caratheodory’s Theorem gives a complete measure on theσ-algebra of µ∗F -measurable sets. Usually we use µF for both the measure on BR and the measure on MµF (theµ∗F -measurable sets). The complete measure µF on MµF is called the Lebesgue-Stieltjes measure associatedwith F .

If E ∈MµF , then

µF (E) = inf

Def 114: Let µ be a Borel measure on X and let E ∈ BX be given. The measure µ is outer regular on E if

µ(E) = inf µ(U) : E ⊆ U and U is open.

The measure µ is inner regular on E if

µ(E) = sup µ(K) : K ⊆ E and K is compact.

µ is called regular if it is both inner regular and outer regular on all E ∈ BX .Def 115: A Borel measure µ on X is called a Radon measure if µ is

Thm 116: Let µF be a Lebesgue-Stieltjes measure on R. Then µF is inner and outer regular on all E ∈ BR. In fact,µF is “inner and outer regular” on all E ∈MµF .

Cor 117: 28 If µF is a Lebesgue-Stieltjes measure then it is a Radon measure. In fact, it is a regular measure.Thm 118: Let µF be a Lebesgue-Stieltjes measure. If E ⊆ R, then TFAE:

(a) E ∈MµF .

(b) E = V \N1 for some Gδ set V and µF -null set N1.

(c) E = H ∪N2 for some Fσ set H and µF -null set N2.

Notation: 29 Given E ⊆ Rn, T an n × n matrix over R, and s ∈ Rn, put TE = Tx : x ∈ E and E + s =s+ x : x ∈ E.

Thm 119: If E ∈ L n then E + s ∈ L n and TE ∈ L n for all s ∈ Rn and T ∈ Rn×n. Moreover, m(E + s) = m(E) andm(TE) = |detT |m(E).

Cor 120: If E ∈ L then E + s ∈ L and rE ∈M . Moreover, m(E + s) = m(E) and m(E) = |r|m(E) (for s, r ∈ R).Here rE = rx : x ∈ E.

Rmrk: If µ is another Radon measure on Rn such that µ(E + s) = µ(E) for all s ∈ Rn and all E ∈ BR then there is ac ≥ 0 such that µ = cm.

Example:30 Examples of sets in L :

(a) Consider E = Q ∩ [0, 1] = ∪∞j=1 qj. Thus m(E) = 0 but m(E) = m([0, 1]) = 1. Thus E is topologically“large” but measure-theoretically “small”.

(b) Let ε ∈ (0, 1/2) be given. For each j ∈ N, set Uj = (qj − ε2−j , qj + ε2−j) ∩ [0, 1]. Put U = ∪∞j=1Uj . Then U is

open in the subspace topology. We have m(U) ≤∞∑j=1

m(Uj) =∞∑j=1

ε2−j+1 = 2ε. But m(U) = m([0, 1]) = 1. So

U is an open set with (arbitrarily) small measure.

(c) Consider [0, 1] \ U . This is a closed nowhere-dense set of measure 1− 2ε.

4.2 Hausdorff Measures

We seek a way to measure low-dimensional subsets of Rn32. Note that the Lebesgue measure of a lower-dimensionalsubset of Rn is always 0. There is a continuum of Hausdorff measures in Rn that can be used to provide a refinedmeasure of Lebesgue null sets in Rn.

Let (X, ρ) be a metric space.Def 121: Let p ≥ 0 be given and δ > 0. Define Hp,δ, Hp : P(X)→ [0,∞] by

Hp,δ(E) := inf

∞∑j=1

(diam(Ej))p : E ⊆ ∪∞j=1Ej , diam(Ej) ≤ δ

and

Hp(E) := limδ→0+

Hp,δ(E).

The function Hp is called the p-dimensional Hausdorff (outer) measure.Rmrk: In the definition of Hp,δ, the sets Ej can be required to be open or closed.Rmrk:H0 is the counting measure.Rmrk: In Rn, the n-dimensional volume of an m-dimensional ball b is proportional to (diam(B))m. In fact, the volume

of an m-dimensional ball with the same diameter as an n-dimensional ball C is also proportional to (diam(C))m.Def 122: An outer measure µ∗ on (X, ρ) is called a metric outer measure if µ∗(A ∪ B) = µ∗(A) + µ∗(B) whenever

ρ(A,B) > 0. This is clearly more than disjointness. Recall ρ(A,B) = inf ρ(x, y) : x ∈ A, y ∈ B.Prop 123: If µ∗ is a metric outer measure, then every Borel set is µ∗-measurable.Prop 124: Let A be a Borel set. If Hp(A) < ∞, then Hq(A) = 0 for all q > p. If Hp(A) > 0 then Hq(A) = ∞ for

all q < p. It follows that inf p ≥ 0 : Hp(A) = 0 = sup p ≥ 0 : Hp(A) =∞. This value is called the Hausdorffdimension of A.

Let (X,M ) be a measurable space.Def 140: 36 Let µ, ν be measures on M .

(a) µ and ν are mutually singular, and we write µ ⊥ ν, if there are disjoint sets Xµ and Xν in M such thatX = Xµ ∪Xν and µ(E) = µ(E ∩Xµ) and ν(E) = ν(E ∩Xν) for all E ∈M .

(b) We say that ν is absolutely continuous with respect to µ, and we write ν µ, if for every E ∈M , wehave ν(E) = 0 whenever µ(E) = 0.

(c) ν is diffuse with respect to µ if for each E ∈M we have ν(E) = 0 whenever µ(E) <∞.

Rmrk:

(a) If µ ⊥ ν, then µ(Xν) = 0 and ν(Xµ) = 0.

(b) If ν is diffuse with respect to µ, then ν µ.

(c) If f ∈ L+, then ν : M → [0,∞] defined by

5 DECOMPOSITION OF MEASURES Analysis Study Guide 5.2 Signed Measures

5.2 Signed Measures

Def 153: A signed measure on (X,M ) is a function ν : M → [−∞,∞] such that

(a) ν(∅) = 0

(b) ν takes at most one of the values +∞ or −∞; i.e., ν : M → (−∞,+∞] or ν : M → [−∞,+∞)

(c) If En∞n=1 ⊆ M are mutually disjoint, then ν(∪∞n=1En) =∞∑n=1

ν(En), and the series converges absolutely if

|ν(∪n∈NEn)| <∞.

Rmrk: Positive measures are signed measures.Rmrk: Condition (c) can be simplified to just countable additivity, using a rearrangement of En∞n=1.Example 154:

(a) If µ1, µ2 are positive measures with at least one finite, then ν = µ1 − µ2 is a signed measure.

(b) If f is a measurable function, either∫X

f+ dµ or∫X

f− dµ is finite, then

ν(E) =∫E

f dµ =∫E

f+ dµ−∫E

f− dµ

is a signed measure. Such f are called extended µ-integrable.

Prop 155: Let ν be a signed measure on M . (Continuity from below) If En∞n=1 ⊆ M and E1 ⊆ E2 ⊆ · · · thenlimn→∞

ν(En) = ν(∪n∈NEn). (Continuity from above) If En∞n=1 ⊆ M with E1 ⊇ E2 ⊇ · · · and |ν(E1)| < ∞ then

limn→∞

ν(En) = ν(∩∞n=1En).Def 156: Let ν be a signed measure. A set E ∈M is called

(a) positive if ν(F ) ≥ 0 for all F ∈M with F ⊆ E;

(b) negative if ν(F ) ≤ 0 for all F ∈M such that F ⊆ E;

(c) null if ν(F ) = 0 for all F ∈M such that F ⊆ E.

Example 157: Let f : R → R be an odd function in L1(m). Further suppose f(x) > 0 for x > 0. Define ν by

ν(E) :=∫E

f dm for all E ∈ BR. Then E ∈ BR is a positive set if E ⊆ [0,∞), except possibly some m-null set;

E ∈ BR is a negative set if E ⊆ (−∞, 0], except possibly some m-null set; and E is a null set if m(E) = 0.Prop 158: Let ν be a signed measure on M . Let E ∈M be such that 0 < ν(E) <∞. Then there is a positive subset

F of E such that ν(F ) > 0.Thm 159: (Hahn Decomposition Theorem) Let ν be a signed measure on M . Then there are sets P,N ∈M such that

P ∩N = ∅, P ∪N = X, P is positive, and N is negative.Def 160: A pair of sets P and N satisfying the conclusion of Theorem 159 is called a Hahn decomposition for ν.Thm 161: 41 (Jordan Decomposition Theorem) Let ν be a signed measure on M . There are unique measures ν+ and

ν− on M such that ν = ν+ − ν− and ν+ ⊥ ν−.Def 162: Let ν be a signed measure on M . The decomposition in Theorem 161 is called the Jordan decomposition

of ν. The measure ν+ is called the positive (upper) variation and the measure ν− is called the negative (lower)variation. The positive measure |ν| = ν+ + ν− is called the total variation.

Def 163: Let ν, ω be signed measures on M .

(a) E ∈M is σ-finite (with respect to ν) if it is σ-finite for |ν|.

(b) ν is σ-finite if |ν| is.

(c) ν and ω are mutually singular if |ν| ⊥ |ω|.

(d) ν is absolutely continuous with respect to ω if |ν| |ω|.

Def 164: Suppose that ν is a signed measure on M . Set L1(ν) = L1(ν+) ∩ L1(ν−), and define∫X

f d ν =∫X

f d ν+ −∫X

f d ν−

for all f ∈ L1(ν).Thm 165: (Lebesgue-Radon-Nikodym Theorem) Let ν be a σ-finite signed measure on M and let µ be a positive σ-finite

measure on M . Then there are unique σ-finite signed measures λ, ρ on M such that

λ ⊥ µ, ρ µ, and ν = ρ+ λ

Moreover, there is an extended µ-integrable function f such that d ρ = f dµ. The function f is unique up to a µ-nullset. The decomposition of ν into λ and ρ is unique.

Example 166: 42

(a) Let ν be a σ-finite signed measure. Let P,N be a Hahn decomposition for ν. Then ν(E) = ν+(E)− ν−(E) =∫E

χP d ν+ −∫E

χN d ν− =∫E

[χP − χN ] d |ν|. Thus ν |ν| andd ν

d |ν|= χP − χN .

(b) Let F : R→ R be given by

F (x) =

0, x < 03− e−x, 0 ≤ x < 14− e−x, 1 ≤ x <∞.

Then F is nondecreasing and right-continuous. The Lebesgue-Stieltjes measure µF satisfies is µF (E) =∫E

e−x dµ+ 2δ0 + δ1.

Example 167: 43

(a) If ψ is the Cantor-Vitali function then set

F (x) =

0 x < 0ψ(x) 0 ≤ x < 11 x > 1

which is a continuous, nondecreasing function. If µF is the associated Lebesgue-Stieltjes measure, then it canbe shown that µF ⊥ m.

(b) The measure µ : P(R) → [0,∞] defined by µ(E) := card(E ∩ Z) is singular with respect to m. The measureµ is discrete.

6 Differentiation

We will look at using the LRN Theorem in particular contexts. We first consider the setting where (X,M ) =

(Rn,BRn). In this setting, there are ways of identifyingd νdm

more explicitly.

Def 168: A family Err>0 ⊆ BRn is said to shrink nicely to x ∈ Rn if

(a) Er ⊆ B(r, x) for each r > 0

(b) There exists α > 0 such that m(Er) ≥ αm(B(r, x)) for all r > 0.

Def 169: 44 A measurable function f : Rn → R is locally integrable with respect to m if∫K

|f |dm < ∞ for every

compact set K ∈ BRn . The space of locally integrable functions on Rn is called L1loc(R), or just L1

loc.

andlimr→0+

−∫Er

f(y) dm(y) = f(x)

for each Err>0 ⊆ BRn that shrink nicely to x.Recall that the elements of L1 (and L1

loc) are actually equivalence classes of functions.

Thm 172: Let f ∈ L1loc be given. Then for a.e. x ∈ Rn, lim

r→0+−∫B(r,x)

f dm = f(x). THis means that, given a representative

g for the equivalence class of f , we will find that limr→0+

−∫B(r,x)

g dm = f(x) for a.e. x ∈ Rn. This limit is independent

of the choice of the equivalence class representative. The function

f∗(x) :=

limr→0+

−∫B(r,x)

f dm if the limit exists

0 otherwise

is called the precise representative for the equivalence class f ∈ L1loc.

Def 173: For each f ∈ L1loc (f is a representative of an equivalence class), the set

Lf :=

x ∈ Rn : lim

r→0+−∫B(r,x)

|f(y)− f(x)|dm(y) = 0

is called the Lebesgue set of f , and its points are called Lebesgue points of f .Thm 174: If f ∈ L1

loc, then m(Rn \ Lf ) = 0.Rmrk: Theorem 174 states that f ∈ L1

loc can be identified with the precise representative for a.e. x ∈ Rn. Theorem 171(LD) says that we can replace B(r, x)r>0 with Err>0 that shrink nicely to x.

Thm 175: 45 If f ∈ L1(m), then for each ε > 0 there exists a continuous g : Rn → R such that ||f − g||L1 < ε.Def 176: 46 Let f ∈ L1

loc be given. The Hardy-Littlewood Maximal function Hf : Rn → [0,∞] is given by

Hf(x) = supr>0−∫B(r,x)

|f |dm.

Prop 177: Let f, g ∈ L1loc be given. Then

(i) 0 ≤ Hf(x) ≤ +∞ for all x ∈ R.

(ii) H(f + g) ≤ Hf +Hg.

(iii) H(cf) = |c|Hf for all c ∈ R.

(iv) Hf is lower semi-continuous.

(v) Hf is BRn -measurable.

Rmrk: Recall that a function h : Rn → R is lower semi-continuous if the set x ∈ Rn : h(x) > a is open for eacha ∈ R. Equivalently, h is lower semi-continuous if lim inf

y→xh(y) ≥ h(x).

Observe that χ[0,1] ∈ L1 but Hχ[0,1] /∈ L1. In general, Hf /∈ L1(R) unless f = 0 for a.e. x ∈ Rn.Thm 179: (Chebyshev’s Inequality): Let (X,M , µ) be a measure space. If f ∈ Lp(µ) for some p ∈ [1,∞), then for all

α > 0, µ (x ∈ X : |f(x)| > α) ≤ 1αp||f ||pL1 .

[f ]p := supα>0

(αpµ(x ∈ X : |f(x)| > α))

for p ∈ [1,∞). We say that f is in weak-Lp if [f ]p <∞.Rmrk: [·]p is not a norm, as it does not satisfy the triangle inequality.Rmrk: Lp ( weak-Lp and [f ]p ≤ ||f ||p. Although Hf /∈ L1 in general, it will belong to weak-L1 if f ∈ L1.Thm 181: (Maximal Theorem) There is a constant c > 0 such that for each f ∈ L1 and all α > 0 such that for each

Def 183: 48 A signed measure ν on BRn is regular if

(a) |ν|(K) <∞ for each compact K ⊆ Rn.

(b) |ν|(E) = inf |ν|(U) : U is open and E ⊆ U for all E ∈ BRn .

Rmrk: If ν is positive, then Definition 183 is equivalent to Definition 114.Rmrk: If ν is regular, then |ν| is a Radon measure.Rmrk: If ν is regular, then ν is σ-finite.Rmrk: If d ν = f dm then ν is regular iff |f | ∈ L1

loc.Thm 184: Let ν be a regular signed measure on BRn . Let d ν = dλ+ f dm be its Lebesgue-Radon-Nikodym decompo-

for every family Err>0 ⊆ BRn that shrinks nicely to x.Note: ν regular implies ν σ-finite implies the Lebesgue-Radon-Nikodym Theorem can be used.Thm 185: 49 (Lusin’s Theorem) Let f : Rn → R be a Borel-measurable function. Suppose there is an A ∈ BRn such

that m(A) < ∞ and f(x) = 0 for all x ∈ Ac. For each ε > 0 there exists continuous g : Rn → R such thatsupx∈Rn

For each x ∈ X, setNx := U ∈ B : x ∈ U. Fix x ∈ X. If we say that U . V whenever U, V ∈ Nx and U ⊇ V then Nx is adirected set.

Def 221: A net in X is a function x : A→ X with A a directed set. We denote the function by 〈xα〉α∈A. The set A iscalled the index set.

Def 222: Let (X, T ) be a topological space and let E ⊆ X be given. Let 〈xα〉α∈A be a net. We say

(a) 〈xα〉 is eventually in E if there is an α0 ∈ A such that xα ∈ E whenever α0 . α.

(b) 〈xα〉 is frequently in E if for all α ∈ A there is a β ∈ A such that α . β and xβ ∈ E.

(c) 〈xα〉 converges to a point x ∈ X if for every U ∈ T with x ∈ U , 〈xα〉 is eventually in U . For brevity, wewrite xα → x.

Prop 223: If (X, T ) and (Y,S) are topological spaces and f : X → Y then f is continuous at x ∈ X iff for each net〈xα〉 converges to x we have 〈f(xα)〉 converges to f(x).

Def 224: LetX be a set and (Yα, Tα)α∈A a family of topological spaces. Given a family of mappings fα : X → Yαα∈Athere is a unique weakest topology on X that makes each fα continuous. This topology is called the weak topologygenerated by fα.

Def 225: Let (X , ||·||) be a normed vector space. The weak topology on X is the weak topology generated by X ∗.Convergence in this topology is called weak convergence.

Rmrk: If 〈xα〉 ⊆ X is a net, we say xα → x strongly iff for each ε > 0, eventually ||xα − x|| < ε. On the other hand,xα → x weakly (written xα x) iff f(xα) → f(x) for all f ∈ X ∗. Recall that X can be identified as a subset ofX ∗∗ so each x ∈X can be identified with a linear functional on X ∗.

Def 226: Let (X , ||·||) be a normed vector space. The weak∗ topology on X ∗ is the weak topology generated by X(identified as a subset of X∗∗). Convergence in the weak∗ topology is called weak∗ convergence.

Rmrk: If 〈fα〉 ⊆X ∗ is a net, then fα → f weak∗ (written fα ∗ f) iff fα(x)→ f(x) for all x ∈X .

Def 227: 61 A subnet of a net 〈xα〉α∈A is a net 〈yβ〉β∈B together with a map β 7→ αβ from B to A such that for eachα0 ∈ A there is a β0 ∈ B such that α0 . αβ for all β ∈ B with β0 . β. Moreover, we require that yβ = xαβ .

Rmrk: Bounded nets in X ∗ must have a weak∗ convergent subnet.Cor 228: (to Riesz’s Theorem) If µ is σ-finite and 〈fα〉 is a bounded net in L∞. Then there is a subnet 〈gα〉 of 〈fα〉

and a function g in L∞ such that gβ ∗ g in L∞; i.e.,∫X

gβf dµ→∫X

gf dµ ∀f ∈ L1.

Cor 229: (to Riesz’s Theorem) If p ∈ (1,∞), q =p

p− 1, and 〈fα〉 is a bounded net in Lp then there exists a subnet

〈gβ〉 of 〈fα〉 and a g ∈ Lp such that gβ g in Lp; i.e.,∫X

gβf dµ→∫X

gf dµ ∀f ∈ Lq.

Cor 230: If p ∈ (1,∞) and fn∞n=1 is bounded in Lp then there exists a subsequence fnk∞k=1 such that fnk → f in

Lp for some f ∈ Lp.Using the Uniform Boundedness Principle (5.13 in Folland), we also haveCor 231: If p ∈ (1,∞) and fn∞n=1 in Lp such that fn f in Lp, then sup

n∈N||fn||Lp <∞.

See notes for a good counterexample of when the previous Corollary fails when p = 1.
