Definition 1.1.3 A non empty family of subsets of X, say M ⊂ P(X), is called a monotone class if for all monotone sequence of sets An ∈ M, increasing An ⊂ An+1 (respect. decreasing An+1 ⊂ An), then ∪nAn ∈ M (respect. ∩nAn ∈ M). Definition 1.1.4 A non empty family of subsets of X, say R ⊂ P(X), is called a ring if (i) ∅ ∈ R, (ii) If A, B ∈ R then A \ B ∈ R, (iii) If A, B ∈ R then A ∪ B ∈ R. 5 6 Chapter 1. Abstract measure Remark 1.1.1 Let Σ ⊂ P(X). Σ is a σ-algebra if and only if Σ is a mono- tone class and an algebra. Let A ⊂ P(X). A is an algebra if and only if A is a ring containing X. Example 1.1.1 (1) The trivial σ-algebras are P(X) and Σ = {∅,X}. (2) Let M = {An : n ∈ N} ∪ X where A1 = ∅, An ⊂ An+1 for all n ∈ N and ∪nAn = X. This is a monotone class but not necessarily a ring. (3) Let X = [0, 1) and A = {finite unions of intervals [a, b), 0 ≤ a ≤ b ≤ 1} is an algebra but not σ-algebra. If the intervals in the previous family are assumed to have 0 ≤ a ≤ b < 1 then it is a ring but not an algebra. (4) Let X be non empty and numerable. R = {A ⊂ X : card(A) < ∞} is a ring but not algebra. Definition 1.1.5 Let An ∈ P(X) for n ∈ N. The upper limit (respect. lower limit) of the sequence is defined by ∞ ∞ lim sup An = ∩n=1 ∪k=n Ak (respect. ∞ ∞ lim inf An = ∪n=1 ∩k=n Ak.) A sequence is said to have limit if lim sup An = lim inf An. Such a set is called lim An. Remark 1.1.2 Any monotone sequence has a limit. If An is increasing (respect. decreasing) then lim An = ∪nAn (respect. lim An = ∩nAn). Proposition 1.1.6 Let R be a ring. If A, B ∈ R then A M B ∈ R and A ∩ B ∈ R. Proof: Note that A M B = ((A ∪ B) \ A) ∪ ((A ∪ B) \ B) and A ∩ B = A ∪ B \ (A M B). Proposition 1.1.7 Let Σ be a σ-algebra. If An ∈ Σ for all n ∈ N then ∩nAn ∈ Σ, lim sup An ∈ Σ and lim inf An ∈ Σ Proof: Write ∩nAn = X \ ∪n(X \ An) and apply the properties of an σ-algebra. 1.1. Basic notions on sets 7 Definition 1.1.8 A pair (X, Σ) given by a non-empty set X and a σ-algebra over X is called a measurable space. We shall give several methods of constructing measurable spaces. The proofs are rather straightforward and left to the reader. Definition 1.1.9 (Induced σ-algebra) Let (X, Σ) be a measurable space and let Y ⊂ X. Then ΣY = {A ∩ Y : A ∈ Σ} is a σ-algebra over Y . If Y ∈ Σ then ΣY = {A ⊂ Y, A ∈ Σ}. Definition 1.1.10 (Image of a σ-algebra ) Let (X, Σ) be a measurable space and let f : X → Y be a function. We define f(Σ) = {B ⊂ Y : f −1(B) ∈ Σ}. Then (Y, f(Σ)) is a measurable space. Definition 1.1.11 (σ-algebra generated by a family) Let F ⊂ P(X). We denote σ(F) the smallest σ-algebra containing F, which is called the σ-algebra generated by F. It is elementary to see that σ(F) = ∩{Σ:Σ σ-algebra , F ⊂ Σ}. Remark 1.1.3 (1) If F1 ⊂ F2 ⊂ σ(F1) then σ(F1) = σ(F2). (2) F1 ⊂ σ(F2) and F2 ⊂ σ(F1) if and only if σ(F1) = σ(F2). Definition 1.1.12 (Borel σ-algebra ) Let (X, τ) be a topological space and let G be the collection of open sets for the topology τ. The σ-algebra σ(G) is called the Borel σ-algebra and denoted B(X). The elements in B(X) are called Borel sets. Remark 1.1.4 Closed sets, Gδ sets (numerable intersection of open sets) or Fσ sets (numerable union of closed sets) are examples of Borel sets. Using Remark 1.1.3 one easily sees the following facts: If F denotes the collection of closed sets in τ then B(X) = σ(F). If (X, d) is a separable metric space (or a metric space where any open set is a numerable union of balls) and E = {B(x, r): x ∈ X, r > 0} then B(X) = σ(E). Proposition 1.1.13 Let X = R and let us consider the following collections E1 = {(a, b): a ≤ b}, E2 = {(a, b]: a ≤ b}, E3 = {[a, b): a ≤ b} and E4 = {[a, b]: a ≤ b}. Then B(R) = σ(Ei) for i = 1, 2, 3, 4. 8 Chapter 1. Abstract measure Proof: Notice that any open set is a numerable union of open intervals. Hence Remark 1.1.3 shows that B(R) = σ(E1). 1 1 Let us observe that (a, b] = ∩n(a, b + n ), [a, b) = ∪n(a − n , b) and [a, b] = 1 1 ∩n(a − n , b + n ) to get the other cases. n Proposition 1.1.14 Let n ∈ N and X = R and consider E = {(a1, b1] × n (a2, b2] × ...(an, bn]: ai ≤ bi, i = 1, ..., n}. Then B(R ) = σ(E). Proof: We sketch the proof for the case n = 2. Consider J0 = {(n, n + 1] × (m, m + 1] : n, m ∈ Z} and Jn the collection of intervals resulting of dividing each square of the previous family into four of the same area. 2 Now for each x ∈ R there exists a unique sequence of intervals Ik(x) ∈ Jk such that x ∈ Ik(x) for all k ∈ N, Ik+1(x) ⊂ Ik(x) and Area(Ik(x)) → 0 as k → ∞. Given an open set G we can consider the family F = {J ∈ ∪kJk : J ⊂ G}. Of course G = ∪J∈FJ and with a little effort it can be seen that only a numerable number of sets is needed. Since F ⊂ E then the proof is finished. Definition 1.1.15 Let E ⊂ P(X). M(E) stands for the smallest monotone class containing E, which is called the monotone class generated by E. Theorem 1.1.16 (The monotone class theorem) Let A be an algebra over X. Then σ(A) = M(A). Proof: It suffices to see that M(A) is σ-algebra . Since M(A) is a monotone class we have only to show that it is an algebra. Clearly ∅ ∈ A ⊂ M(A). Now given A ∈ M(A), to see that X \A ∈ M(A) let us define Σ = {A ∈ M(A): X \ A ∈ M(A)} and show that Σ = M(A). For such a purpose we shall see that Σ is a monotone class and contains A. Indeed, if An ∈ Σ is a monotone sequence then lim An ∈ Σ. Clearly if A ∈ A then X \ A ∈ A ⊂ M(A). Therefore A ⊂ Σ. Given now A, B ∈ M(A), we need to show that A ∪ B ∈ M(A). Let us define ΓA = {B ∈ M(A): A ∪ B ∈ M(A)}. Note that ΓA is a monotone class (since (Bn)n monotone sequence in ΓA has limit in ΓA). Now let us deal first with the case A ∈ A. In this case ΓA contains A (since B ∈ A implies A ∪ B ∈ A ⊂ M(A)). Therefore ΓA = M(A) for all A ∈ A. 1.2. Basic notions on set functions. 9 Now let us consider A ∈ M(A) \ A. To see that A ⊂ ΓA observe that B ∈ A belongs to ΓA since we have that B ∈ ΓA if and only if A ∈ ΓB and this was shown to be true in the previous case. 1.2 Basic notions on set functions. Definition 1.2.1 Let A be an algebra over X, a set function µ : A → [0, ∞] is called additive (or finitely additive) if µ(A ∪ B) = µ(A) + µ(B) for all A, B ∈ A such that A ∩ B = ∅. P∞ µ is called a measure over A if µ(∅) = 0 and µ(∪nAn) = n=1 µ(An) for any sequence (An) of pairwise disjoint sets in A such that ∪nAn ∈ A.

  • Appendix A. Measure and Integration
    Appendix A. Measure and integration We suppose the reader is familiar with the basic facts concerning set theory and integration as they are presented in the introductory course of analysis. In this appendix, we review them briefly, and add some more which we shall need in the text. Basic references for proofs and a detailed exposition are, e.g., [[ H a l 1 ]] , [[ J a r 1 , 2 ]] , [[ K F 1 , 2 ]] , [[ L i L ]] , [[ R u 1 ]] , or any other textbook on analysis you might prefer. A.1 Sets, mappings, relations A set is a collection of objects called elements. The symbol card X denotes the cardi- nality of the set X. The subset M consisting of the elements of X which satisfy the conditions P1(x),...,Pn(x) is usually written as M = { x ∈ X : P1(x),...,Pn(x) }.A set whose elements are certain sets is called a system or family of these sets; the family of all subsystems of a given X is denoted as 2X . The operations of union, intersection, and set difference are introduced in the standard way; the first two of these are commutative, associative, and mutually distributive. In a { } system Mα of any cardinality, the de Morgan relations , X \ Mα = (X \ Mα)and X \ Mα = (X \ Mα), α α α α are valid. Another elementary property is the following: for any family {Mn} ,whichis { } at most countable, there is a disjoint family Nn of the same cardinality such that ⊂ \ ∪ \ Nn Mn and n Nn = n Mn.Theset(M N) (N M) is called the symmetric difference of the sets M,N and denoted as M #N.

Gupta {gupta}@ee.washington.edu Dept of EE, University of Washington Seattle WA, 98195-2500 University of Washington, Dept. of EE, UWEETR-2006-0008 May 2006 Abstract This tutorial is an informal introduction to measure theory for people who are interested in reading papers that use measure theory. The tutorial assumes one has had at least a year of college-level calculus, some graduate level exposure to random processes, and familiarity with terms like “closed” and “open.” The focus is on the terms and ideas relevant to applied probability and information theory. There are no proofs and no exercises. Measure theory is a bit like grammar, many people communicate clearly without worrying about all the details, but the details do exist and for good reasons. There are a number of great texts that do measure theory justice. This is not one of them. Rather this is a hack way to get the basic ideas down so you can read through research papers and follow what’s going on. Hopefully, you’ll get curious and excited enough about the details to check out some of the references for a deeper understanding.

  • Measure and Integration
    ¦ Measure and Integration Man is the measure of all things. — Pythagoras Lebesgue is the measure of almost all things. — Anonymous ¦.G Motivation We shall give a few reasons why it is worth bothering with measure the- ory and the Lebesgue integral. To this end, we stress the importance of measure theory in three different areas. ¦.G.G We want a powerful integral At the end of the previous chapter we encountered a neat application of Banach’s fixed point theorem to solve ordinary differential equations. An essential ingredient in the argument was the observation in Lemma 2.77 that the operation of differentiation could be replaced by integration. Note that differentiation is an operation that destroys regularity, while in- tegration yields further regularity. It is a consequence of the fundamental theorem of calculus that the indefinite integral of a continuous function is a continuously differentiable function. So far we used the elementary notion of the Riemann integral. Let us quickly recall the definition of the Riemann integral on a bounded interval. Definition 3.1. Let [a, b] with −¥ < a < b < ¥ be a compact in- terval. A partition of [a, b] is a finite sequence p := (t0,..., tN) such that a = t0 < t1 < ··· < tN = b. The mesh size of p is jpj := max1≤k≤Njtk − tk−1j. Given a partition p of [a, b], an associated vector of sample points (frequently also called tags) is a vector x = (x1,..., xN) such that xk 2 [tk−1, tk]. Given a function f : [a, b] ! R and a tagged 51 3 Measure and Integration partition (p, x) of [a, b], the Riemann sum S( f , p, x) is defined by N S( f , p, x) := ∑ f (xk)(tk − tk−1).

  • 1. Σ-Algebras Definition 1. Let X Be Any Set and Let F Be a Collection Of
    1. σ-algebras Definition 1. Let X be any set and let F be a collection of subsets of X. We say that F is a σ-algebra (on X), if it satisfies the following. (1) X 2 F. (2) If A 2 F, then Ac 2 F. 1 (3) If A1;A2; · · · 2 F, a countable collection, then [n=1An 2 F. In the above situation, the elements of F are called measurable sets and X (or more precisely (X; F)) is called a measurable space. Example 1. For any set X, P(X), the set of all subsets of X is a σ-algebra and so is F = f;;Xg. Theorem 1. Let X be any set and let G be any collection of subsets of X. Then there exists a σ-algebra, containing G and smallest with respect to inclusion. Proof. Let S be the collection of all σ-algebras containing G. This set is non-empty, since P(X) 2 S. Then F = \A2SA can easily be checked to have all the properties asserted in the theorem. Remark 1. In the above situation, F is called the σ-algebra generated by G. Definition 2. Let X be a topological space (for example, a metric space) and let B be the σ-algebra generated by the set of all open sets of X. The elements of B are called Borel sets and (X; B), a Borel measurable space. Definition 3. Let (X; F) be a measurable space and let Y be any topo- logical space and let f : X ! Y be any function.

  • Chapter 5 Decomposition of Measures
    1 CHAPTER 5 DECOMPOSITION OF MEASURES Introduction In this section a version of the fundamental theorem of calculus for Lebesgue integrals will be proved. Moreover, the concept of di¤erentiating a measure with respect to another measure will be developped. A very important result in this chapter is the so called Radon-Nikodym Theorem. 5:1: Complex Measures Let (X; ) be a measurable space. Recall that if An X; n N+, and M 2 Ai Aj = if i = j, the sequence (An)n N+ is called a disjoint denumerable \ 6 2 collection. The collection is called a measurable partition of A if A = 1 An [n=1 and An for every n N+: A complex2 M function 2on is called a complex measure if M (A) = n1=1(An) for every A and measurable partition (An)n1=1 of A: Note that () = 0 if is a complex2 M measure. A complex measure is said to be a real measure if it is a real function. The reader should note that a positive measure need not be a real measure since in…nity is not a real number. If is a complex measure = Re +iIm , where Re =Re and Im =Im are real measures. If (X; ; ) is a positive measure and f L1() it follows that M 2 (A) = fd; A 2 M ZA is a real measure and we write d = fd. 2 A function : [ ; ] is called a signed measure measure if M! 1 1 (a) : ] ; ] or : [ ; [ (b) (M!) = 0 1 1 M! 1 1 and (c) for every A and measurable partition (An)1 of A; 2 M n=1 (A) = n1=1(An) where the latter sum converges absolutely if (A) R: 2 Here = and + x = if x R: The sum of a positive measure1 1 and a1 real measure1 and the di¤erence1 of2 a real measure and a positive measure are examples of signed measures and it can be proved that there are no other signed measures (see Folland [F ]).

  • Measure Theory 1 Measurable Spaces
    Measure Theory 1 Measurable Spaces A measurable space is a set S, together with a nonempty collection, , of subsets of S, satisfying the following two conditions: S 1. For any A; B in the collection , the set1 A B is also in . S − S 2. For any A1; A2; , Ai . The elements of ·are· · 2calledS [measurable2 S sets. These two conditions are S summarized by saying that the measurable sets are closed under taking finite differences and countable unions. Think of S as the arena in which all the action (integrals, etc) will take place; and of the measurable sets are those that are \candidates for having a size". In some examples, all the measurable sets will be assigned a \size"; in others, only the smaller measurable sets will be (with the remaining mea- surable sets having, effectively “infinite size"). Several properties of measurable sets are immediate from the definition. 1. The empty set, , is measurable. [Since is nonempty, there exists some measurable set A.;So, A A = is measurable,S by condition 1 above.] − ; 2. For A and B any two measurable sets, A B, A B, and A B are all measurable. [The third is just condition 1\above.[For the second,− apply condition 2 to the sequence A; B; ; ; . For the first, note that ; ; · · · A B = A (A B): Use condition 1 twice.] It follows immediately, by rep\eated application− − of these facts, that the measurable sets are closed under taking any finite numbers of intersections, unions, and differences. 3. For A1; A2; measurable, their intersection, A , is also measurable.
