Existence of a strange measure
Just about any form of the axiom of choice can be used to prove this. I like topology, so here's a proof using Tychonoff's theorem.
Consider the space $2^{2^\mathbb{N}}$ of all functions $2^{\mathbb …

Are finitely generated amenable groups positively finitely generated?
The answer is already no for $\mathbb{Z}$, assuming the question is whether this holds for every meaure. Let $n\in\mathbb{N}$, and let
$$
S \,=\, \{(a_1,\ldots,a_n)\in\mathbb{Z}^n \mid \gcd(a_1,\ldot …

Expanding Measurable Sets
Let $S,T \subset \mathbb{R}^n$ be measurable sets, and suppose that there exists a measurable bijection $f\colon S\to T$ so that
$$
\|f(x)-f(y)\| \;\geq\; \|x-y\|
$$
for all $x,y \in S$. Does it foll …

Codimension of Measurable Sets
I am currently teaching an advanced undergraduate analysis class, and the following question came up.
Intuition suggests that "most" subsets of $[0,1]$ are not Lebesgue measurable. However, the powe …
