A Lebesgue measurable function is a measurable function : (,) (,), where is the -algebra of Lebesgue measurable sets, and is the Borel algebra on the complex numbers. Lebesgue measurable functions are of interest in mathematical analysis because they can be integrated.
For (,) a measurable space, a sequence μ n is said to converge setwise to a limit μ if = ()for every set .. Typical arrow notations are and .. For example, as a consequence of the Riemann–Lebesgue lemma, the sequence μ n of measures on the interval [−1, 1] given by μ n (dx) = (1 + sin(nx))dx converges setwise to Lebesgue measure, but it does not converge in total variation.
In mathematics, the L p spaces are function spaces defined using a natural generalization of the p-norm for finite-dimensional vector spaces.They are sometimes called Lebesgue spaces, named after Henri Lebesgue (Dunford & Schwartz 1958, III.3), although according to the Bourbaki group (Bourbaki 1987) they were first introduced by Frigyes Riesz ().
If X = [a,b] ⊆ R and μ is Lebesgue measure, there are sequences (g n) of step functions and (h n) of continuous functions converging globally in measure to f. If f and f n (n ∈ N) are in L p (μ) for some p > 0 and (f n) converges to f in the p-norm, then (f n) converges to f globally in measure. The converse is false.
The Riesz–Fischer theorem also applies in a more general setting. Let R be an inner product space consisting of functions (for example, measurable functions on the line, analytic functions in the unit disc; in old literature, sometimes called Euclidean Space), and let {} be an orthonormal system in R (e.g. Fourier basis, Hermite or Laguerre polynomials, etc. – see orthogonal polynomials ...
Measure and integration (as the English translation of the title reads) is a definitive monograph on integration and measure theory: the treatment of the limiting behavior of the integral of various kind of sequences of measure-related structures (measurable functions, measurable sets, measures and their combinations) is somewhat conclusive.
When () <, a set of functions (,,) is uniformly integrable if and only if it is bounded in (,,) and has uniformly absolutely continuous integrals. If, in addition, μ {\displaystyle \mu } is atomless, then the uniform integrability is equivalent to the uniform absolute continuity of integrals.
As above, let f and g denote measurable real- or complex-valued functions defined on S. If ‖ fg ‖ 1 is finite, then the pointwise products of f with g and its complex conjugate function are μ-integrable, the estimate
