A metric space is a pair $(X,d)$, where $X$ is a set and $d:X \times X \to \mathbb{R}$ satisfies the following conditions for all $x,y,z \in X$. (Symmetry) $d(x,y)=d(y,x)$. (Identity of Indiscernibles) $d(x,y)=0$ if and only if $x=y$. (Triangle Inequality) $d(x,y)+d(y,z) \geq d(x,z)$.

Let $(E, d)$ be a metric space and $\mathcal F$ a collection of real-valued functions on $E$. Assume that for all $x,x_n \in E$ with $n\in \mathbb N$, $$ x_n \to x \iff [f(x_n) \to f(x) \quad \forall …

Disintegration of measures: a confusion about an existence proof from a lecture note

I'm reading a proof of Theorem 2.25 below from this note. First, we recall a definition and a theorem, i.e., Theorem 2.25 (Disintegration). Let $\left(Z, d_Z\right)$ and $\left(X, d_X\right)$ be Pol …

Portmanteau theorem for finite signed Borel measures

Let $X$ be a metric space, $\mathcal M(X)$ the space of all finite signed Borel measures on $X$, $\mathcal M_+(X)$ the space of all finite nonnegative Borel measures on $X$, $\mathcal M_1(X)$ the spa …

Let $X$ be a metric space and $\mathcal B$ its Borel $\sigma$-algebra. For $B \in \mathcal B$ we denote by $\Pi(B)$ the collection of all finite measurable partitions of $B$, i.e., $$ \Pi(B)=\left\{\l …

I represent below @NikWeaver's idea of improving $\frac{1}{2} [\cdot]' \le [\cdot]$ to get $\frac{1}{\sqrt 2} [\cdot]' \le [\cdot]$. For complex number $z = x + iy$ with $x,y \in \mathbb R$, we have …

Let $X$ be a metric space, $\mu$ a $\sigma$-finite non-negative Borel measure on $X$, and $(E, |\cdot|)$ a Banach space. Let $\mathcal L_p := \mathcal L_p (X, \mu, E)$ and $\|\cdot\|_{\mathcal L_p}$ b …

Below is a counter-example taken from this thread. It works even when $\mathcal C_c$ is replaced by $\mathcal C$, the space of all continuous functions from $X$ from $E$. Let $X:=[0, 1]$, $E:=\mathbb …

Is this metric on the space of $\mu$-measurable functions complete?

Below we use Bochner measurability and Bochner integral. Let $(X, \mathcal A, \mu)$ be a complete finite measure space, $(E, | \cdot |)$ a Banach space, $S (X)$ the space of $\mu$-simple functions fr …
