What's the definition of a line integral on a possibly disconnected curve?
I'm trying to understand this paper, and I see this integral (page 2):
$$
\int_{B\ \cap\ \mathcal{C}} (1 - y)dy,
$$
where $\mathcal{C}$ is the curve given by $x = ye^{1-y}$ and $B$ can be any ...

Proof that the volume function is $\sigma$-additive
A $\textbf{box}$ $Q\subset \mathbb{R}^n$ is defined as $Q:= (a_1,b_1) \times \ldots \times (a_n,b_n)$ and the same with closed or half opened intervals where $a_i < b_i \in \mathbb{R}$ and in case ...

If $f^{-1}(I)$ is a Borel set for every interval $I$, why is $f^{-1}(B)$ a Borel set for every Borel set $B$?
My book defines a Borel subset of an interval $X$ of $\mathbb R$ to be any set which is in every $\sigma$-field containing all finite unions of intervals in $X$. Then they define a function $f:X\to [0,...

Nice application of dominated convergence theorem
Let $\delta \in \mathbb{R}$, $$f(x)=\frac{sin(x^2)}{x}+\frac{\delta x}{1+x}.$$
Show that $$\operatorname{lim_{n\to \infty}} \int_{0}^{a}f(nx)=a\delta$$ for each $a>0.$
I am unable to find ...

Example of sequence of integrable maps such that integral smaller than $1/n$ but doesn't converge to zero almost everywhere
I am looking for a measure space $(\Omega,\mathcal{M},\mu)$ and a sequence of integrable functions $(f_n)$ in $\mathcal{L}^1(\Omega,\mathcal{M},\mu)$ with the property that
$\int_\Omega |f_n|d\mu \leq ...

Prove $\nu$ is absolutely continuous to Lebesgue measure if and only if $f$ is absolutely continuous.
Let $\nu$ be a finite Borel measure on $[0,1]$. Define $f : [0,1] \to \mathbb R$ by $f(x) = \nu ([0,x))$. Prove $\nu$ is absolutely continuous to Lebesgue measure (\mu) if and only if $f$ is ...

Calculating a series with the Beppo-Levi Theorem
As an excercise of Measure Theory, I have to calculate for all $a\in [-1,1]$ that: $$\int_{(0,+\infty)} \frac{\sin (t)}{e^t - a} d\lambda(t) = \sum_{n\geq 1} \frac{a^{n-1}}{n^2+1} $$
where $\lambda$ ...

Calculating an integral depending on a parameter
I have to prove as an excercise of my Measure Theory lessons that for $p > -1$ it is true that: $$\int_0^1 \frac{-\ln(x) x^p}{1-x} dx = \sum_{n \geq 1} \frac{1}{(n+p)^2}$$
As an advice, the ...

On the layer cake representation
The statement, as in Lieb-Loss Analysis, for the Layer cake representation is:
Let $\nu$ be Borel measure on $[0,\infty)$ such that $\phi(t) := \nu([0,t))$ is finite for each $t > 0$. Now let $(\...

If $m(A)=0$, does this imply that $m(\log(A)) = 0$ when $A\subset \mathbb{R}_{+}$
The question is as follows:
Let $A\subset \mathbb{R}_{+}$ and let $\log(A)=\{\log(t): t\in A\}$.If $m(A)=0$,then is it true that $m(\log(A)) = 0$? If $m(A) < \infty$, then is it true that $m(A) <...

Why regularity is important for a Borel measure?
Why the property of being regular for a measure is important and what are some important and essential theorems that use this properties to hold true ?
Thanks in advance.
