Prove: If $f_1$ and $f_2$ are integrable, then $f_1\vee f_2$ is integrable over each $A\in\mathscr{A}$.

I need to prove the following result: Let $(X,\mathscr{A},\mu)$ be a measure space. If $f_1$ and $f_2$ are integrable, then $f_1\vee f_2$ is integrable over each $A\in\mathscr{A}$. Here is my ...

Is there a simple proof that the Laplace transform of a signed measure $\mu$ on $\mathbb R$ uniquely determines $\mu$? [duplicate]

A Laplace transform of a signed measure $\mu$ on $(\mathbb R, \mathcal B(\mathbb R))$ is defined by $$ f_\mu(s) = \int_{\mathbb R} e^{-\lambda t} d \mu(t), \qquad \forall s \in \mathbb R. $$ I know ...

Prove: $F:M(X,\mathscr{A},\mathbb{R})\to\mathbb{R}$ defined by $F(\mu)=\int fd\mu$ is a linear functional. [closed]

I need to prove the following result: Remark 4.30$\quad$ Let $M(X,\mathscr{A},\mathbb{R})$ be the collection of all finite signed measures on $(X,\mathscr{A})$. Let $B(X,\mathscr{A},\mathbb{R})$ be ...

Integration with spherically symmetric measure in $\mathbb R^d$

Let $\mu$ be a finite spherically symmetric measure over $\mathbb R^d$, so that $\mu(TB) = \mu(B)$ for all orthogonal transformations $T: \mathbb R^d \rightarrow \mathbb R^d$ and Borel set $B$. Let $g:...

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 ...

Differentiability of an integral depending on a parameter

Let $f$ be a function in $L^1 ([0,1])$, and for $y \in [0,1]$ consider $$F(y) = \int_{[0,1]} (1+ |f|)^y dx$$ Is $F$ differentiable in $(0,1)$? If it is, what is its derivative? I know that that, given ...

If $g_1, g_2\in\mathscr{L}^{\infty}(X,\mathscr{A},\mu)$ are equal locally $\mu$-almost everywhere, then $T_{g_1}=T_{g_2}$.

Background Suppose that $(X,\mathscr{A},\mu)$ is an arbitrary measure space, that $p$ satisfies $1\leq p<+\infty$, and that $q$ is defined by $\frac{1}{p}+\frac{1}{q}=1$. Let $g$ belong to $\...

Why are Lebesgue integrals defined as a supremum and not as a limit?

We may approximate a bounded nonnegative function $f$ by simple functions $\phi$. Then the standard way of defining the Lebesgue integral of $f$ is $$ \int f d\mu := \sup \Bigg\{ \int \phi : \phi \...

Proving that $\iint f(x) g(x+y) dx dy \leq \int g^2(x) dx$

Let $D \subset \mathbb{R}^n$ be bounded, and $f,g: \mathbb{R}^n \rightarrow \mathbb{R}$. Furthermore let $f$ be nonnegative and such that $\int_D f dx= 1$. I would like to prove that $$\int_D \int_D f(...

$e^{-\lVert x \rVert ^2}$ is integrable over $\mathbb{R}^n$ and $\int_{\mathbb{R}^n} e^{-\lVert x \rVert ^2} = \pi^{n/2}$

$e^{-\lVert x \rVert ^2}$ is lebesgue integrable over $\mathbb{R}^n$ and $\int_{\mathbb{R}^n} e^{-\lVert x \rVert ^2} = \pi^{n/2}$. I'm a bit lost on this, I've tried to use a particular result about ...

Showing the following function is nonnegative

Let $D \subset \mathbb{R}$ and $f: D \rightarrow \mathbb{R}$ $g: \mathbb{R} \times D \rightarrow \mathbb{R}$ be nonnegative functions. Let $\mu$ be a measure on $D$ such that $\mu(D) < \infty$. I ...

Need help understanding the switching of integral limits with Fubini's theorem: $\int_0^cm(\{x:|f(x)|>t\})dt=\int_{\{x:c\geq |f(x)|\geq 0\}}|f(x)|dx$

Let $f\in L^1(\mathbb{R}, m)$ with $m$ being the Lebesgue measure and $c > 0$. I have to admit that I am quite bad with using Fubini's theorem outside of calculus type problems of abstract proofs. ...

$\mathscr{L}^{p_1}(\mathbb{N},\mathscr{A},\mu)\subseteq\mathscr{L}^{p_2}(\mathbb{N},\mathscr{A},\mu)$: $1\leq p_1<p_2<+\infty$, $\mu$ counting measure

I need to prove the following: Suppose that $1\leq p_1<p_2<+\infty$. Let $\mu$ is the counting measure on the $\sigma$-algebra $\mathscr{A}$ of all subsets of $\mathbb{N}$. Then $\mathscr{L}^{...

Layer cake representation and function with compact support

My question is related to the posts here and here, but my setup is slightly different. For a real-valued random variable $X$, and a function $\varphi: \mathbb{R} \to \mathbb{R}$ that has support in ...
