Notes on the Lebesgue Integral

چکیده

In the definition of the Riemann integral of a function f(x), the x-axis is partitioned and the integral is defined in terms of limits of the Riemann sums ∑n−1 j=0 f(x ∗ j)∆j, where ∆j = xj+1− xj. The basic idea for the Lebesgue integral is to partition the y-axis, which contains the range of f , rather than the x-axis. This seems like a “dumb” idea at first. Shouldn’t the two ways end up giving the same integral? Most of time this is the case, but Lebesgue was after integrating some functions for which the Riemann integral doesn’t exist; for example, the Dirichlet function, which is defined on [0, 1]:

Notes for “Wavelets and Computation”

• The exterior measure of any set A ⊂ R is μ∗(A) = inf E⊂A μ(E) where the infimum is taken over all elementary sets. • A is Lebesgue measurable if for all > 0 there exists an open set O ⊃ A such that μ∗(O \A) ≤ . • The (Lebesgue) measure of a measurable set is μ(A) = μ∗(A). A function f is measurable if the sets {t | f(t) ≤ a} are measurable for all a ∈ R. Definition 2 (Lebesgue integral) • For...

Integral of Fine Computable functions and Walsh Fourier series

We define the effective integrability of Fine-computable functions and effectivize some fundamental limit theorems in the theory of Lebesgue integral such as Bounded Convergence Theorem and Dominated Convergence Theorem. It is also proved that the Walsh-Fourier coefficients of an effectively integrable Finecomputable function form an E-computable sequence of reals and converge effectively to ze...

The Sugeno fuzzy integral of concave functions

The fuzzy integrals are a kind of fuzzy measures acting on fuzzy sets. They can be viewed as an average membershipvalue of fuzzy sets. The value of the fuzzy integral in a decision making environment where uncertainty is presenthas been well established. Most of the integral inequalities studied in the fuzzy integration context normally considerconditions such as monotonicity or comonotonicity....
