homogeneous subset of [0,1] of arbitrarily small Lebesgue measure [closed]
Does there exist for arbitrary $\alpha$, $0<\alpha<1$, a measurable subset $A$ of the closed unit interval $[0,1]$ such that Lebesgue measure $m(A)=\alpha$ and the following "homogeneity" ...

An almost orthogonality principle for L^p
I recently asked this question on Math StackExchange and someone suggested that it would probably be more suited for Math Overflow. Since it still has not been answered, here it goes:
If two ...

trace-class embeddings
There is a classical theorem of Riesz-Kolmogorov that characterizes compact embedding in $L^p$-spaces of some subspace of them. A generalization to arbitrary metric spaces has been recently obtained ...

An infimum of integrals of a positive function.
Hi,
I have a question concerning integration theory I can't figure out, maybe someone can help:
Fix $\varepsilon>0$ and consider $\delta \colon [0,1] \to (0,\infty)$ measurable. Is it then true ...

Operation on measurable sets in lines, containing an interval?
Question 1: In $\mathbb{R}^2$, let $l_1$,$l_2$ be two parallel lines and $l_3$ another line which is not parallel to $l_1$. Given two measurable sets $E_1$ and $E_2$ in $l_1$ and $l_2$ respectively, ...

Axiom of choice and non-measurable set
We know that existence of a Lebesgue non-measurable set follows from the Axiom Of Choice. Is the converse true? That is, does the existence of a Lebesgue non-measurable set imply the Axiom Of Choice?...

Geometric proof of the Vandermonde determinant?
The Vandermonde matrix is the $n\times n$ matrix whose $(i,j)$-th component is $x_j^{i-1}$, where the $x_j$ are indeterminates. It is well known that the determinant of this matrix is $$\prod_{1\leq ...

Lebesgue measure of boundary of Caccioppoli set
Can anything be said about the measure of the topological boundary of a Cacciopoli set in $R^n$? Of course, the reduced boundary has finite (n-1)-dimensional Hausdorff measure, but this does not say ...
