Complex Measures and the Radon-Nykodym Theorem CHAPTER 5 Complex measures and the Radon-Nykodym theorem 5.1 Motivation. The Vitali-Cantor function. This chapter is the first step towards a differ- d entiation theory for (at the very least) the Lebesgue integral on R and R . Let us start with a simple example. If f is a continuous function on [0, 1] we may define its integral function by x F(x)= f (t) dt = f 1[0,x) dµ. Z0 Z respectively in Riemann and Lebesgue integral notation: Riemann and Lebesgue integral coincide for continuous functions. The first fundamental theorem of Calculus tells us that F(x + h) F(x) F 0(x) := lim = f (x) x (0, 1). h 0 h − ! 8 2 Conversely, if F is continuously differentiable on (0, 1), then F(x) F(0)= F 01[0,x) dµ. − Z 1 Both statements fail badly when the assumption of f continuous is replaced by f L (0, 1). 2 Here is a telling example. For n = 0, 1, . let En be the n-th iteration of the Cantor set, namely, 2n En = In,j j=1 [ n where the union is disjoint and In,j is a suitable closed interval of length 2− . Notice that In,j En+1 = In+1,2j 1 In+1,2j. Define the Riemann integrable function fn : [0, 1] C \ − [ ! 2n x 3 n+1 f 1 , F x f t dt. n = 2 In,j n( )= n( ) j=1 0 Å ã X Z It is easy to see that Fn is a continuous function, Fn(0)=0, Fn(1)=1 and Fn is constant on the complement of En. The easiest way to see that Fn converges uniformly on [0, 1] to a continuous function F on [0, 1] is the following. Notice that gn = fn+1 fn is zero unless x En, and there holds that − 2 n 1 2 + f x f x 1 x 1 1 x 1 x 2 1 x 3 n+1( ) n( ) In,j ( ) = 3 In+1,2j 1 ( )+ In+1,2j 1 ( ) 3 Jn,j ( )= − − − − where Jn,j is theÄ middle third of In,j. Inä particular,Ä since the above hasä mean zero on each In,j, Fn+1 = Fn outside En. Using the above display, one has 1 sup Fn 1 x Fn x + ( ) ( ) n+1 x [0,1] | − | 3 2 2 · 57 58 5. COMPLEX MEASURES AND THE RADON-NYKODYM THEOREM whence, by standard arguments, Fn is uniformly Cauchy and converges uniformly to a con- tinuous function F : [0, 1] R with F(0)=0, F(1)=1. Moreover, F is constant on the ! complement of the Cantor set E = En. It follows that F(x + h) F(x) F 0(x)=S lim = 0 h 0 h − ! for all x E (and therefore, F’=0 almost everywhere). Thus, the second fundamental theorem of62 Calculus fails for F. 1 Here, what happens is that the limit of fn should not be understood as an L function 1 (fn 0 pointwise a.e. and in L ), but rather as a measure which is concentrated on the Cantor! set, and thus is singular with respect to Lebesgue measure. The theory developed in the upcoming sections will allow us to correctly characterize the limit of fn. 5.2 Complex measures. Let be a σ-algebra on a set X . If E , and F 2F 1 E = Ej, Ej j, j = k = Ej Ek = j=1 2F8 6 ) \ ; [ then Ej : j N is called a measurable partition of the set E.Acomplex measure is a map { 2 } ⌫ : C with the property that, whenever E and Ej : j N is a measurable partitionF 7! of E, 2F { 2 } 1 (5.1) ⌫(E)= ⌫(Ej). j=1 X Notice that the convergence of the series (of complex numbers) is a part of the requirement, unlike the case of (positive) measure where ⌫ is allowed to take the value . 1 1 5.2.1 EXAMPLE. Let (X , , µ) be a measure space and f L (X , , µ). Let F 2 F ⌫f (E)= f dµ, A . ZE 2F Exercise 6 from Chapter 3 yields exactly that ⌫f is a complex measure on . We observe F for further use that the same statement yields ⌫ f is a finite positive measure and ⌫f (E) | | | | ⌫ f (E) for all E . | | 2F The second part of the above example suggests that, given a complex measure ⌫ on , one should look for a positive finite measure λ on such that ⌫(E) λ(E) for all A F . Such a measure would need to satisfy F | | 2F 1 1 λ(E)= λ(Ej) ⌫(Ej) j=1 ≥ j=1 | | X X whenever E and Ej : j N is a measurable partition of E. Thus, we define the map 2F { 2 } 1 (5.2) ⌫ : [0, ], ⌫ (E) := sup ⌫(Ej) E meas. part. of E | | F! 1 | | j j=1 | | { } X which is the least possible such measure λ and is termed the total variation of ⌫. It should be pretty obvious that if ⌫ is a complex measure taking nonnegative values, then ⌫ = ⌫. | | 5. COMPLEX MEASURES AND THE RADON-NYKODYM THEOREM 59 5.2.2 LEMMA. Let ⌫ be a complex measure on . Then the total variation ⌫ of (5.2) is a finite positive measure on . F | | F PROOF. Let us first prove that ⌫ is a measure. Let Ej , F` be any two measurable | | { } { } partitions of E. Then F` Ej : j N is a measurable partition of F` and, viceversa F` { \ 2 } { \ Ej : ` N is a measurable partition of Ej. Thus, with the first equality justified by the convergence2 } of the sums, there holds 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 ⌫(F`) = ⌫(F` Ej) ⌫(F` Ej) = ⌫(F` Ej) ⌫ (Ej). ` 1 | | ` 1 j 1 \ ` 1 j 1 | \ | j 1 ` 1 | \ | j 1 | | = = = = = = = = X X X X X X X X Taking the supremum over F` in the left hand side we obtain { } 1 (5.3) ⌫ (E) ⌫ (Ej). | | j=1 | | X For the opposite inequality, let Aj,` : ` N be a measurable partition of each Ej such that { 2 } 1 j ⌫ (Ej) "2− + ⌫(Aj,`) . | | `=1 | | X Clearly Aj,` : j, ` N is a measurable partition of E. Thus { 2 } 1 1 1 (5.4) ⌫(Ej) " + ⌫(Aj,`) " + ⌫ (E)+" j=1 | | j=1 `=1 | | | | X X X and " > 0 is arbitrary. Combining (5.3) with (5.4) yields countable additivity of ⌫ . Let us move to ⌫ being a finite measure. We will need the following Sublemma,| | whose proof is left as an exercise.| | 5.2.3 SUBLEMMA. Let z1,...,zN be complex numbers. Then there is a subset of indices S 1, . , N such that ⇢ { } N 1 z z . j ⇡ j j S ≥ j=1 | | 2 X X Suppose first that there exists a measurable set E with ⌫ (E)= . Then there must | | 1 exist a partition Ej : j T of E and a finite N such that { 2 } N ⌫(Ej) > ⇡(1 + ⌫(E) ). j=1 | | | | X Using the sublemma, choose a subcollection of indices S 1, . , N such that ⇢ { } (1 + ⌫(E) ) ⌫(Ej) = ⌫(A), A = Ej. | | j S | j S X2 2 c [ Let B = E A . It must be by finite additivity of ⌫ that \ ⌫(B) = ⌫(E) ⌫(A) ⌫(E) ⌫(A) 1 | | | − | ≥ | | − | | ≥ 60 5. COMPLEX MEASURES AND THE RADON-NYKODYM THEOREM So we have found two disjoint measurable sets A, B such that ⌫(A) , ⌫(B) 1 and A B = E, whence, without loss of generality ⌫ (A)= . | | | | ≥ [ We now show that if ⌫ (X )=| | we reach1 a contradiction. By repeating the above procedure, replacing E with| | A each1 time, we construct a sequence Bj of pairwise disjoint sets with ⌫(Bj) 1. But this contradicts the convergence of the series | | ≥ 1 1 ⌫ Bj = ⌫(Bj), Çj=1 å j=1 [ X which completes the proof. ⇤ 5.2.4 REMARK. It is easy to see, and we leave the proof as an exercise, that the space M(X , ) : ⌫ : C complex measures F { F! } is a linear space and ⌫ X = ⌫(X ) k k 1 is a norm on M(X , ). Furthermore, if µ is a positive measure on and f L (X , , µ), F F 2 F then ⌫f = ⌫ f and ⌫f = f 1. | | | | k k k k Let ⌫ be a complex measure on taking real values. We can decompose F ⌫ ⌫ ⌫ ⌫+ ⌫ , ⌫ : , = + − ± = | |±2 such that the measures ⌫± are finite positive measures on . This decomposition is referred to as the Jordan decomposition of ⌫. F 5.3 Absolute continuity. Let (X , , µ) be a measure space and ⌫ be an arbitrary (complex or positive) measure on . We sayF that ⌫ is absolutely continuous with respect to µ, and write ⌫ µ, if F Î (5.5) E , µ(E)=0 = ⌫(E)=0. 2F ) It is immediate to see that if ⌫ is a complex measure then ⌫ ⌫ . A measure ⌫ (positive or complex) on is said to be concentrated on the set A ifÎ | | F 2F ⌫(A B)=⌫(B) B . \ 8 2F If ⌫1, ⌫2 are two measures on such that ⌫j is concentrated on Aj and A1, A2 partition X , then we say that ⌫1, ⌫2 are mutuallyF singular and write ⌫1 ⌫2. It is not difficult to find examples for each property, thus? we leave these as an exercise, as well as the following properties. 5.3.1 PROPOSITION. Let µ be a positive measure, ⌫, ⌫1, ⌫2 be either positive or complex mea- sure on the same σ-algebra .

  • 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.

    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.

  • ANSWERS I All of the Problems Are from Chapter 3 of the Text
    Problem Set Problem Set #1 Math 5322, Fall 2001 March 4, 2002 ANSWERS i All of the problems are from Chapter 3 of the text. Problem 1. [Problem 2, page 88] If ν is a signed measure, E is ν-null iff |ν|(E) = 0. Also, if ν and µ are signed measures, ν ⊥ µ iff |ν| ⊥ µ iff ν+ ⊥ µ and ν− ⊥ µ Answer: For the first part of the problem, let X = P ∪ N be a Hahn decomposition of X with respect to ν. Thus, we have ν+(E) = ν(E ∩ P ) ν−(E) = −ν(E ∩ N) |ν| = ν+ + ν− Assume that E is ν-null. This means that for all measurable F ⊆ E, ν(F ) = 0. But then E ∩ P ⊆ E, so ν+(E) = 0 and E ∩ N ⊆ E, so ν−(E) = 0. Then we have |ν|(E) = ν+(E) + ν−(E) = 0 Conversely, suppose that |ν|(E) = 0. Let F ⊆ E be measurable. Then 0 ≤ ν+(F ) + ν−(F ) = |ν|(F ) ≤ |ν|(E) = 0, so ν+(F ) = 0 and ν−(F ) = 0. But then ν(F ) = ν+(F ) − ν−(F ) = 0. Thus, we can conclude that E is ν-null. For the second part of the problem, we want to show that the following conditions are equivalent. (1) ν ⊥ µ (2) ν+ ⊥ µ and ν− ⊥ µ (3) |ν| ⊥ µ Let’s first show that (1) =⇒ (2). Since ν ⊥ µ, we can decompose X into a disjoint union of measurable sets A and B so that A is µ-null and B is ν-null. We can also find an Hahn decomposition X = P ∪N with respect to ν, as above.

M ⊂ −∞ ∞ M ⊂ −∞ ∞ (2) ν is countably additive, this is to say if E = ∞ Ej with Ej , then j=1 ∈ M ∞ 31 ν(E)= ν(Ej). ` j=1 (3) ν( )=0P. ∅ If there exists Xn such that ν(Xn) < and X = ∞ Xn, then ν is said ∈ M | | ∞ ∪n=1 to be σ — finite and if ν( ) R then ν is said to be a finite signed measure. M ⊂ Similarly, a countably additive set function ν : C such that ν( )=0is called a complex measure. M → ∅ A finite signed measure is clearly a complex measure. Example 13.2. Suppose that µ+ and µ are two positive measures on such − M that either µ+(X) < or µ (X) < , then ν = µ+ µ is a signed measure. If ∞ − ∞ − − both µ+(X) and µ (X) are finite then ν is a finite signed measure. − Example 13.3. Suppose that g : X R is measurable and either g+dµ or → E g−dµ < , then E ∞ R R (13.1) ν(A)= gdµ A ∀ ∈ M ZA defines a signed measure. This is actually a special case of the last example with µ (A) g±dµ. Notice that the measure µ in this example have the property ± ≡ A ± that they are concentrated on disjoint sets, namely µ+ “lives” on g>0 and µ “lives” onR the set g<0 .

  • Discrete Probabilistic and Algebraic Dynamics: a Stochastic Commutative
    Discrete probabilistic and algebraic dynamics: a stochastic commutative Gelfand-Naimark Theorem Arthur J. Parzygnat Abstract We introduce a category of stochastic maps (certain Markov kernels) on compact Haus- dorff spaces, construct a stochastic analogue of the Gelfand spectrum functor, and prove a stochastic version of the commutative Gelfand-Naimark Theorem. This relates concepts from algebra and operator theory to concepts from topology and probability theory. For completeness, we review stochastic matrices, their relationship to positive maps on commu- tative C∗-algebras, and the Gelfand-Naimark Theorem. No knowledge of probability theory nor C∗-algebras is assumed and several examples are drawn from physics.
