Uncountable infimum of measurable functions

See also: When is the infimum of an arbitrary family of measurable functions also measurable? My answer is for supremum, but the same holds for infimum since the corresponding results can be obtained …

Existence of a strange function

The relation $$ x\sim y \quad \iff \quad x-y\in\mathbb{Q} $$ is an equivalence relation that partitions $[0,1]$ into countable sets of the form $[t]=(t+\mathbb{Q})\cap [0,1]$. The set of all equivalen …

Generalized Nikodym sets

The answer to Question 1 is yes. This is a result of Falconer, Corollary 6.6 in K. J. Falconer, Sets with prescribed projections and Nikodým sets. Proc. London Math. Soc. (3) 53 (1986), no. 1, 48–64 …

Is there a strictly increasing differentiable function maps positively measurable set to zer...

There are strictly increasing $C^1$ functions that map sets of positive measure to sets of measure zero. Here is a construction: Let $C\subset [0,1]$ be a Cantor set of positive measure. For a constr …

Existence of a strange measure

The answer is yes. I wrote a proof using YCor's comment. Theorem. There a finitely additive measure defined on all subsets of positive integers $\mathbb{N}$, with values into $\{0,1\}$, (only two …

On conditions for the existence of $h\in L^1$ such that $h>0$ a.e

It is false without assuming that the measure is $\sigma$-finite. Let $\mu$ be the counting measure on $\mathbb{R}$. Then $h>0$ a.e. means $h>0$ everywhere and clearly $$ \int_{\mathbb{R}}hd\mu=\sum_{ …

Can an Osgood curve be almost everywhere differentiable?

Take a set $K\subset\mathbb{R}^2$ that is homeomorphic to the Cantor set and has positive $2$-dimensional Lebesgue measure. Take a homeomorphism of the ternary Canor set onto $K$ and extend it as a pi …

Does approximately Fréchet differentiable imply approximately Gateaux differentiable?

I have an example which does not strictly answer the question, but a slightly weaker one. Theorem 1. There is a function $f:\mathbb{R}^n\to\mathbb{R}$ that is approximately Fréchet differentiable alm …

Surface/Volume-Ratio of an $\epsilon$-extension of a compact subset $S \subset \mathbb R^n$

The function $f(x)$ need not be decreasing or even continuous. Let $S$ be the union of three segments in $\mathbb{R}^2$. $$ S=([0,0.1]\times\{ 0\})\cup(\{0\}\times[0,1])\cup (\{0.1\}\times[0,1]). $$ …

Measurable functions with non measurable image

A measurable function $f:[0,1]\to\mathbb{R}$ maps Lebesgue measurable sets to measurable sets if and only if it has a Lusin property: the image of a set of measure zero has measure zero. Here is an …

The Poisson equation

By the Dirichlet principle harmonic functions in $W^{1,2}(B_4)$ minimize the Dirichlet energy $\int_{B_4}|\nabla u|^2$ among all function in $W^{1,2}(B_4)$ with the same boundary data. Since $v\in W^{ …

Control the derivative of a BV function by its symmetric part

This is not a full answer, but some comments that might put you on the right track. If a function $f=(f_1,\ldots,f_n):\mathbb{R}^n\to\mathbb{R}^n$ is sufficiently smooth and has compact support, the …

When is the infimum of an arbitrary family of measurable functions also measurable?

The infimum of any family of measurable functions is measurable if we interpret the infimum as the lattice infimum. For details see: https://mathoverflow.net/a/316658/121665

About the sigma algebra generated by the Hausdorff measure on $\mathbb R^n$

This is a partial answer. In $\mathbb{R}^n$, $\mathcal{H}^n$ coincides with the Lebesgue measure so $\mu(\mathcal{H}^n)$ coincides with the $\sigma$-algebra of Lebesgue measurable sets.
