R.L. Schilling: Measures, Integrals & Martingales Problem 1.3 Solution: We record the lenghts of the removed pieces in each step 1. In Step 1 we remove one (= 20 ) piece of length 12 r;

2. In Step 2 we remove two (= 21 ) pieces, each of length 18 r; 3. In Step 3 we remove four (= 22 ) pieces, each of length n. In Step n we remove 2n pieces, each of length

1 r; 32

1 r; 22n*1

In each step we remove 2n ù 2*2n+1 ù r = 2*n+1 r units of length, i.e. we remove ÿ … r = r. n*1 2 n=1

Thus, l(I) = l[0, 1] * r = 1 * r. This means that the modified Cantor set does have a length! Consequently it cannot be empty. ∑∑ Problem 1.4 Solution: In each step the total length is increased by the factor 4_3, since we remove the middle interval (relative length 1_3) and replace it by two copies constituting the sides of an equilateral triangle (relative length 2_3). Thus, l(Kn ) =

⇠ ⇡n ⇠ ⇡n 4 4 4 ù l(Kn*1 ) = 5 = l(K0 ) = . 3 3 3

In particular, limnôÿ l(Kn ) = ÿ.

Again -additivity comes in in the form of a limit (compare with Problem 1.2). ∑∑ Problem 1.5 Solution: In each step the total area is decreased by the factor 3_4, since we remove the middle triangle (relative area 1_4). Thus,

˘ ⇠ ⇡n ⇠ ⇡n 3 3 3 3 area(Sn ) = ù area(Sn*1 ) = 5 = area(S0 ) = . 4 4 4 4

In particular, area(S) = limnôÿ area(Sn ) = 0.

Again -additivity comes in in the form of a limit (compare with Problem 1.2). Notice that S is not empty as it contains the vertices of all black triangles (see figure) of each stage.

2 The pleasures of counting. Solutions to Problems 2.1–2.22 Problem 2.1 Solution: (i) We have x À A ‰ B ◊Ÿ x À A and x à B

◊Ÿ x À A and x À B c ◊Ÿ x À A „ B c .

(ii) Using (i) and de Morgan’s laws (*) yields (i)

(A ‰ B) ‰ C = (A „ B c ) „ C c = A „ B c „ C c ( shows that A = B, hence that

is injective.

(B), which is also a contradiction. This, finally

On the other hand, each natural number can be expressed in terms of finite sums of powers of base-2, so that

is also surjective.

Thus, #F = #N. ∑∑ Problem 2.20 Solution: (Let F be as in the previous exercise.) Observe that the infinite sets from P(N), I := P(N) ‰ F can be surjectively mapped onto {0, 1}N : if {a1 , a2 , a3 , …} = A œ N, then define an infinite 0-1-sequence (b1 , b2 , b3 , …) by setting bj = 0 or bj = 1 according to whether

aj is even or odd. This is a surjection of P(N) onto {0, 1}N and so #P(N) Œ #{0, 1}N . Call this map

and consider the family

*1 (s),

s À {0, 1}N in I, consisting of obviously disjoint infinite

subsets of N which lead to the same 0-1-sequence s. Now choose from each family

*1 (s)

a

representative, call it r(s) À I. Then the map s ;ô r(s) is a bijection between {0, 1}N and a subset of I, the set of all representatives. Hence, I has at least the same cardinality as {0, 1}N and as such a bigger cardinality than N.

∑∑ Problem 2.21 Solution: Denote by ⇥ the map P(N) Œ A ;ô 1A À {0, 1}N . Let = (d1 , d2 , d3 , …) À {0, 1}N and define A( ) := {j À N : dj = 1}. Then ive.

On the other hand, 1A = 1B ◊Ÿ 1A (j) = 1B (j) ≈j À N ◊Ÿ A = B. 19

R.L. Schilling: Measures, Integrals & Martingales This shows the injectivity of ⇥, and #P(N) = #{0, 1}N follows. ∑∑ Problem 2.22 Solution: Since for A, A® , B, B ® œ X we have the ‘multiplication rule’ (A „ B) ‰ (A® „ B ® ) = (A ‰ A® ) „ (A ‰ B ® ) „ (B ‰ A® ) „ (B ‰ B ® ) and since this rule carries over to the infinite case, we get the formula from the problem by ‘multiplying out’ the countable union

(A01 „ A11 ) ‰ (A02 „ A12 ) ‰ (A03 „ A13 ) ‰ (A04 „ A14 ) ‰ 5 . More formally, one argues as follows: xÀ

Clearly, (*) implies (**). On the other hand, assume that (**) holds but that (*) is wrong, i.e.

suppose that for every n we have that either x À A0n or x À A1n or x is in neither of A0n , A1n . Thus we can construct a uniquely defined sequence i(n) À {0, 1}, n À N, by setting h n0 n i(n) = l1 n n0 j

-Algebras.

Solutions to Problems 3.1–3.16 Problem 3.1 Solution: (i) It is clearly enough to show that A, B À A

-Ÿ A „ B À A, because the case of N sets

follows from this by induction, the induction step being

A1 „ … „ AN „AN+1 = B „ AN+1 À A. ´≠≠≠≠≠≠Ø≠≠≠≠≠≠¨ =:BÀA

Let A, B À A. Then, by (⌃2 ) also Ac , B c À A and, by (⌃3 ) and (⌃2 ) A „ B = (Ac ‰ B c )c = (Ac ‰ B c ‰ Á ‰ Á ‰ …)c À A. Alternative: Of course, the last argument also goes through for N sets: A1 „ A2 „ … „ AN = (Ac1 ‰ Ac2 ‰ … ‰ AcN )c = (Ac1 ‰ … ‰ AcN ‰ Á ‰ Á ‰ …)c À A. (ii) By (⌃2 ) we have A À A -Ÿ Ac À A. Use Ac instead of A and observe that (Ac )c = A to see the claim.

(iii) Clearly Ac , B c À A and so, by part (i), A ‰ B = A „ B c À A as well as A Ã B = (A ‰ B) ‰ (B ‰ A) À A. ∑∑ Problem 3.2 Solution:

(iv) Let us assume that B ë Á and B ë X. Then B c à {Á, B, X}. Since with B also B c must be contained in a -algebra, the family {Á, B, X} cannot be one.

(vi) Set AE := {E „ A : A À A}. The key observation is that all set operations in AE are now relative to E and not to X. This concerns mainly the complementation of sets! Let us check (⌃1 )–(⌃3 ).

Clearly Á = E „ Á À AE . If B À A, then B = E „ A for some A À A and the complement of B relative to E is E ‰ B = E „ B c = E „ (E „ A)c = E „ (E c ‰ Ac ) = E „ Ac À AE as

Ac À A. Finally, let (Bj )jÀN œ AE . Then there are (Aj )jÀN œ A such that Bj = E „ Aj . ∑ ∑ ∑ ∑ Since A = jÀN Aj À A we get jÀN Bj = jÀN (E „Aj ) = E „ jÀN Aj = E „A À AE . 21

R.L. Schilling: Measures, Integrals & Martingales (vii) Note that f *1 interchanges with all set operations. Let A, Aj , j À N be sets in A. We know

that then A = f *1 (A® ), Aj = f *1 (A®j ) for suitable A, A®j À A ® . Since A ® is, by assumption a -algebra, we have

∑∑ Problem 3.3 Solution:

Denote by ⌃ =

({x}, x À R). Let A be the -algebra defined in Ex-

ample 3.3(v). It is clear that {x} À A, and so ⌃ œ A. On the other hand, if A À A, then either A

or Ac is countable. Wlog assume that A is countable. Then A is a countable union of singletons, as such A À ⌃ as well as Ac À ⌃. This means A œ ⌃.

∑∑ Problem 3.4 Solution: (i) Since G is a -algebra, G ‘competes’ in the intersection of all -algebras C – G appearing in the definition of A in the proof of Theorem 3.4(ii). Thus, G – (G) while G œ (G) is always true.

(ii) Without loss of generality we can assume that Á ë A ë X since this would simplify the

problem. Clearly {Á, A, Ac , X} is a -algebra containing A and no element can be removed without losing this property. Thus {Á, A, Ac , X} is minimal and, therefore, = ({A}).

(iii) Assume that F œ G. Then we have F œ G œ

(G). Now C :=

(G) is a potential

‘competitor’ in the intersection appearing in the proof of Theorem 3.4(ii), and as such C – (F), i.e. (G) – (F).

∑∑ Problem 3.5 Solution: (i) {Á, (0, 12 ), {0} ‰ [ 12 , 1], [0, 1]}.

We have 2 atoms (see the explanations below): (0, 12 ), (0, 12 )c .

(ii) {Á, [0, 14 ), [ 14 , 34 ], ( 34 , 1], [0, 34 ], [ 14 , 1], [0, 14 ) ‰ ( 34 , 1], [0, 1]}. We have 3 atoms (see below): [0, 14 ), [ 14 , 34 ], ( 34 , 1].

(iii) —same solution as (ii)—

Parts (ii) and (iii) are quite tedious to do and they illustrate how difficult it can be to find a -algebra

containing two distinct sets.... imagine how to deal with something that is generated by 10, 20,

or infinitely many sets. Instead of giving a particular answer, let us describe the method to find ({A, B}) practically, and then we are going to prove it.

Solution Manual. Chapter 1–13. Last update 23rd August 2017 1. Start with trivial sets and given sets: Á, X, A, B. 2. now add their complements: Ac , B c

3. now add their unions and intersections and differences: A ‰ B, A „ B, A ‰ B, B ‰ A 4. now add the complements of the sets in 3.: Ac „ B c , Ac ‰ B c , (A ‰ B)c , (B ‰ A)c

5. finally, add unions of differences and their complements: (A‰B)‰(B ‰A), (A‰B)c „(B ‰A)c .

All in all one should have 16 sets (some of them could be empty or X or appear several times,

depending on how much A differs from B). That’s it, but the trouble is: is this construction correct? Here is a somewhat more systematic procedure:

Definition: An atom of a -algebra A is a non-void set Á ë A À A that contains no other set of A. Since A is stable under intersections, it is also clear that all atoms are disjoint sets! Now we can make up every set from A as union (finite or countable) of such atoms. The task at hand is to find atoms if A, B are given. This is easy: the atoms of our future -algebra must be: A ‰ B,

B ‰ A, A „ B, (A ‰ B)c . (Test it: if you make a picture, this is a tesselation of our space X using

disjoint sets and we can get back A, B as union! It is also minimal, since these sets must appear in ({A, B}) anyway.) The crucial point is now:

Theorem. If A is a -algebra with N atoms (finitely many!), then A consists of exactly 2N elements. Proof. The question is how many different unions we can make out of N sets. Simple answer: we find

, 0 Õ j Õ N different unions involving exactly j sets (j = 0 will, of course, produce ≥ N the empty set) and they are all different as the atoms were disjoint. Thus, we get N = j=0 j N j

(1 + 1)N = 2N different sets.

It is clear that they constitute a -algebra. This answers the above question. The number of atoms depends obviously on the relative position of A, B: do they intersect, are they disjoint etc. Have fun with the exercises and do not try to find

-algebras generated by three or more sets..... (By the way: can you think of a situation in [0, 1]

with two subsets given and exactly four atoms? Can there be more?)

∑∑ Problem 3.6 Solution: (i) See the solution to Problem 3.5.

(ii) If A1 , … , AN œ X are given, there are at most 2N atoms. This can be seen by induction. If

N = 1, then there are #{A, Ac } = 2 atoms. If we add a further set AN+1 , then the worst case

would be that AN+1 intersects with each of the 2N atoms, thus splitting each atom into two sets which amounts to saying that there are 2 2N = 2N+1 atoms.

23

R.L. Schilling: Measures, Integrals & Martingales ∑∑ Problem 3.7 Solution: We follow the hint. Since #A = #N, the following set is a countable intersection of measurable sets, hence itself in A:

≈x À X : A(x) :=

Ã

A À A.

AÀA,AŒx

(*)

Write A0 for the atoms of A. Then • A(x) À A is an atom which contains x.

Indeed: Otherwise, there is some B œ A(x) such that B À A, B ë Á, B ë A(x). We can

assume that x À B, or we would take B ® := A(x) ‰ B instead of B. Since x À B, B is part of the intersection appearing in (*) so that B – A(x), hence B = A(x), which is impossible.

• Every atom A ë Á of A is of the form (*).

Indeed: By assumption, x0 À A so that A = A(x0 ). • A has #N many atoms. Indeed: Since #A = #N, there are countably infinitely many disjoint sets in A, thus the procedure (*) yields at least #N many atoms. On the other hand, there cannot be more atoms than members of A, and the claim follows.

Since A contains all countable unions of sets from A0 , and since there are more than countably many such unions, it is clear that #A > #N.

Remark: A -algebra may have no non-empty atoms at all! Here is an example (which I learned from Julian Hollender). Let I be an uncountable set, e.g. I = [0, 1], and consider ⌦ = {0, 1}I . We can construct a -algebra on ⌦ in the following way: Let K œ I and define PK : {0, 1}I ô {0, 1}K

the coordinate projection. A cylinder set or finitely based set with basis K œ I is a set of the form PK*1 (B) where #K < ÿ and B œ {0, 1}K . Now consider the -algebra A := ({cylinder sets})

on {0, 1}I . Intuitively, A À A is of the form PL*1 (B) where L is countable. (The proof as such is not obvious, a possible source is Lemma 4.5 in Schilling & Partzsch: Brownian Motion. De

Gruyter, Berlin 2012.) Assume that A0 À A were an atom. Then A0 has the basis L. Take i À I ‰ L, consider L® = L ‰ {i} and construct a set PL*1® (B ® ) where B ® = B ù {0}, say. Then PL*1® (B ® ) œ A0 and PL*1® (B ® ) À A.

∑∑ Problem 3.8 Solution: We begin with an example: Let X = (0, 1] and A = B(0, 1] be the Borel sets. Define

An :=

((j * 1)2*n , j2*n ] , j = 1, 2, … , 2n

the dyadic -algebra of step 2*n . Clearly, #An = 2n . Moreover, An ◊ An+1

24

and Aÿ :=

Õ n

An .

Solution Manual. Chapter 1–13. Last update 23rd August 2017 However, Aÿ is NOT a -algebra. Argument 1: I À Aÿ ◊Ÿ I À An for some n, i.e. I is a finite union of intervals with dyadic end-points. (More precisely: the topological boundary I ‰ I ˝ consists of dyadic points). On the other hand, every open set (a, b) œ [0, 1] is a countable union of sets from Aÿ : Õ

(a, b) =

I

IÀAÿ ,Iœ(a,b)

which follows from the fact that the dyadic numbers are dense in (0, 1]. (If you want it more

elementary, then approximate a and b from the right and left, respectively, by dyadic numbers and construct the approximating intervals by hand....). If, for example, a and b are irrational, then (a, b) Ã Aÿ . This shows that Aÿ cannot be a -algebra. In fact, our argument shows that (Aÿ ) = B(0, 1]. Argument 2: Since #An = 2n we see that #Aÿ = #N. But Problem 3.7 tells us that Aÿ can’t be a -algebra.

Let us now turn to the general case. We follow the note by A. Broughton and B.W. Huff: A comment on unions of sigma-fields. Am. Math. Monthly 84 (1977) 553–554.

Since the An are strictly increasing, we may assume that A1 ë {Á, X}. Recall also the notion of a trace -Algebra

B „ An := {B „ A : A À An }. Step 1. Claim: There exists a set E À A1 such that (E „ An+1 ) ‰ (E „ An ) ë Á for infinitely many n À N.

To see this, assume – to the contrary – that for some n and some B À A1 we have B „ An = B „ An+1

and

B c „ An = B c „ An+1 .

If U À An+1 ‰ An , then U=

(B „ U ) ´Ø¨

ÀB„An+1 =B„An œAn



(B c „ U ) ´≠Ø≠¨

ÀB c „An+1 =B c „An œAn

leading to the contradiction U À An . Thus the claim holds with either E = B or E = B c . Step 2. Let E be the set from Step 1 and denote by n1 , n2 , … a sequence for which the assertion in Step 1 holds. Then

Fk := E „ Ank ,

kÀN 25

R.L. Schilling: Measures, Integrals & Martingales is a strictly increasing sequence of -Algebras over the set E. Again we may assume that F1 ë {Á, E} As in Step 1, we find some E1 À F1 such that E1 is not trivial (i.e. E1 ë Á and E1 ë E) and (E1 „ Fk+1 ) ‰ (E1 „ Fk ) ë Á holds for infinitely many k.

Step 3. Now we repeat Step 2 and construct recursively a sequence of -algebras Ai1 œ Ai2 œ Ai3 … and a sequence of sets E1 – E2 – E3 … such that and

Ek À Aik

Ek+1 À (Ek „ Aik+1 ) ‰ (Ek „ Aik ).

Step 4. The sets Fk := Ek ‰ Ek+1 have the property that they are disjoint and Fk À Aik+1 ‰ Aik . Since the -algebras are increasing, we have Õ nÀN

An =

Õ kÀN

Aik

which means that we can restrict ourselves to a subsequence. This means that we can assume that ik = k. Step 5. Without loss of generality we can identify Fk with {k} and assume that the An are algebras on N such that {k} À Ak+1 ‰ Ak . Let Bn the smallest set in An such that n À Bn . Then n À Bn œ {n, n + 1, n + 2, …} and Bn ë {n}. Moreover m À Bn -Ÿ Bm œ Bn

since m À Bn „ Bm À Am .

Now define n1 = 1 and pick nk+1 recursively: nk+1 À Bnk such that nk+1 ë nk . Then Bn1 – Bn2 –

… . Set E = {n2 , n4 , n6 , …}. If Aÿ were a -algebra, then E À An for some n, thus E À An2k for

some k. Then {n2k , n2k+2 , …} À An2k and thus Bn2k œ {n2k , n2k+2 , …}. This contradicts the fact n2k+1 À Bn2k .

6 Existence of measures. Solutions to Problems 6.1–6.14 Problem 6.1 Solution: (i) Monotonicity: If x Õ 0 Õ y, then F (x) Õ 0 Õ F (y).

If 0 < x Õ y, we have [0, x) œ [0, y) and so 0 Õ F (x) = [0, x) Õ [0, y) = F (y).

If x Õ y < 0, we have [y, 0) œ [x, 0) and so 0 Õ *F (y) = [y, 0) Õ [x, 0) = *F (x), i.e. F (x) Õ F (y) Õ 0. Left-continuity: Let us deal with the case x Œ 0 only, the case x < 0 is analogous (and

even easier). Assume first that x > 0. Take any sequence xk < x and xk ~ x as k ô ÿ. Without loss of generality we can assume that 0 < xk < x. Then [0, xk ) ~ [0, x) and using Proposition 4.3 (continuity of measures) implies

lim F (xk ) = lim [0, xk ) = [0, x) = F (x).

kôÿ

kôÿ

If x = 0 we must take a sequence xk < 0 and we have then [xk , 0) ö [0, 0) = Á. Again by Proposition 4.3, now (iii® ), we get

lim F (xk ) = * lim [xk , 0) = (Á) = 0 = F (0).

kôÿ

kôÿ

which shows left-continuity at this point, too.

We remark that, since for a sequence yk ö y, yk > y we have [0, yk ) ö [0, y], and not [0, y), we cannot expect right-continuity in general.

(ii) Since J = {[a, b), a Õ b} is a semi-ring (cf. the remark preceding Proposition 6.3 or Proposition 6.5) it is enough to check that ⌫F is a premeasure on J. This again amounts to showing (M1 ) and (M2 ) relative to J (mind you: ⌫F is not a measure as J is not a -algebra....). We do this in the equivalent form of Lemma 4.9:

(i) ⌫F (Á) = ⌫F [a, a) = F (a) * F (a) = 0 for any a.

(ii) Let a Õ b Õ c so that [a, b), [b, c) À J are disjoint sets and [a, c) = [a, b) ⁄ [b, c) À J (the latter is crucial). Then we have

⌫F [a, b) + ⌫F [b, c) = F (b) * F (a) + F (c) * F (b) = F (c) * F (a) = ⌫F [a, c) = ⌫F [a, b) ⁄ [b, c) .

59

R.L. Schilling: Measures, Integrals & Martingales (iii® ) (Sufficient since ⌫F is finite for every set [a, b)). Now take a sequence of intervals

[ak , bk ) which decreases towards some [a, b) À J. This means that ak ~ a, ak Õ a and

bk ö b, bk Œ b because the intervals are nested (gives increasing-decreasing sequences). If bk > b for infinitely many k, this would mean that [ak , bk ) ô [a, b] à J since

b À [ak , bk ) for all k. Since we are only interested in sequences whose limits stay in J, the sequence bk must reach b after finitely many steps and stay there to give [a, b). Thus, we may assume directly that we have only [ak , b) ö [a, b) with ak ~ a, ak Õ a. But then we can use left-continuity and get

lim ⌫F [ak , b) = lim (F (b) * F (ak )) = F (b) * F (a)

= ⌫F [a, b). Note that ⌫F takes on only positive values because F increases.

This means that we find at least one extension. Uniqueness follows since ⌫F [*k, k) = F (k) * F (*k) < ÿ (iii) Now let

and [*k, k) ~ R.

be a measure with [*n, n) < ÿ. The latter means that the function F (x),

as defined in part (i), is finite for every x À R. Now take this F and define, as in (ii) a (uniquely defined) measure ⌫F . Let us see that

= ⌫F . For this, it is enough to show

equality on the sets of type [a, b) (since such sets generate the Borel sets and the uniqueness theorem applies....) If 0 Õ a Õ b, ⌫F [a, b) = F (b) * F (a) = [0, b) * [0, a) =

On the other hand, T *1 is not measurable: the set A = {k; k Õ 0} is contained in A, but T (A) = {k : k Õ 2} Ã A (use 2 = 2 1 À A, but 2 1 + 1 = 3 Ã A).

∑∑ Problem 8.21 Solution: We want to show that the sets {u Õ ↵} are Borel sets. We will even show that they are intervals, hence Borel sets. Imagine the graph of an increasing function and the line y = ↵ cutting through. Essentially we have three scenarios: the cut happens at a point where (a) u is continuous and strictly increasing or (b) u is flat or (c) u jumps—i.e. has a gap; these three cases

are shown in the following pictures: From the three pictures it is clear that we get in any case an 6

c

interval for the sub-level sets {u Õ } where

6

↵ b

-

a

is some level (in the pic’s

b

a

↵ -

= ↵ or = ), you can

read off the intervals on the abscissa where the dotted lines cross the abscissa.

Now let’s look at the additional conditions: First the intuition: From the first picture, the continuous and strictly increasing case, it is clear that we can produce any interval (*ÿ, b] to (*ÿ, a] by looking at {u Õ } to {u Õ ↵} my moving up the -line to level ↵. The point is here that we get all intervals, so we get a generator of the Borel sets, so we should get all Borel sets. 88

Solution Manual. Chapter 1–13. Last update 23rd August 2017 The second picture is bad: the level set {u Õ } is (*ÿ, b] and all level sets below will only come up to the point (*ÿ, c], so there is no chance to get any set contained in (c, b), i.e. we cannot get all Borel sets.

The third picture is good again, because the vertical jump does not hurt. The only ‘problem’ is

whether {u Õ } is (*ÿ, b] or (*ÿ, b) which essentially depends on the property of the graph whether u(b) =

or not, but this is not so relevant here, we just must make sure that we can get

more or less all intervals. The reason, really, is that jumps as we described them here can only happen countably often, so this problem occurs only countably often, and we can overcome it therefore.

So the point is: we must disallow flat bits, i.e. (u) is the Borel -algebra if, and only, if u is strictly

increasing, i.e. if, and only if, u is injective. (Note that this would have been clear already from Problem 8.15, but our approach here is much more intuitive.)

R.L. Schilling: Measures, Integrals & Martingales (i) Since the map g : C ô R2 is continuous, we have g *1 (B(R2 )) œ B(C).

(ii) Part (i) shows that a map h : E ô C is A_C-measurable if, and only if, g˝h : E ô R2 is A_B(R2 )-measurable.

Indeed: The map h : (E, A) ô (C, C) is, by definition, measureable if h*1 (A) À A for all A À C. Since C = g *1 (B(R2 )), this is the same as h*1 (g *1 (B)) = (g˝h)*1 (B) À A

for all B À B(R2 ), hence it is the same as the measurability of g˝h.

"Ÿ": Assume that h : E ô C is A_C-measurable. Then we have that H I Re h (g˝h) = Im h is A_B(R2 )-measurable. Since the projections ⇡j : R2 Œ (x1 , x2 ) ;ô xj À R are

Borel measurable (due to continuity!), we get that Re h = ⇡1 (g˝h) and Im h = ⇡2 (g˝h) are measurable (composition of measurable functions).

"◊": Assume that Re h and Im h are A_B(R)-measurable. Then the map (g˝h) = (Re h, Im h) is A_B(R2 )-measurable. With the above arguments we conclude that h : (E, A) ô (C, C) is measurable.

12 Convergence theorems and their applications.

Thus, limj î uj d = 1. On the other hand, the pointwise limit is u(x) := lim uj (x) í 0 j

The example does not contradict dominated convergence as there is no uniform dominating integrable function.

S⇡ [u] í 0 resp. S ⇡ [u] í 1

Indeed: u is measurable if, and only if, u*1 (A) À {Á, ⌦} for all A À A = {Á, R}. Since u*1 (Á) = Á

u*1 (R) = ⌦

this is indeed true for any map u. (b) Every measurable map u : (⌦, {Á, ⌦}) ô (R, B(R)) is constant Indeed: Suppose, u is not constant, i.e. there are !1 , !2 À ⌦ and x, y À R, x ë y, such that u(!1 ) = x,

u(!2 ) = y. Then u*1 ({x}) Ã {Á, ⌦} as !1 À u*1 ({x}) (and so u*1 ({x}) ë Á) and !2 Ã u*1 ({x}) (and so u*1 ({x}) ë ⌦).

(c) Every measurable map u : (⌦, {Á, ⌦}) ô (R, P(R)) is clearly {Á, ⌦}_B(R)-measurable. From (b) we know that such functions are constant. On the other hand, constant maps are measurable for any -algebra. Therefore, every {Á, ⌦}_P(R)-measurable map is constant.

(ii) We determine first the (B)-measurable maps. We claim: every (B)_B(R)-measurable map is of the form

u(!) = c1 1B (!) + c2 1Bc (!),

R.L. Schilling: Measures, Integrals & Martingales for any A À B(R). Therefore, u is (B)_B(R)-measurable. Conversely, assume that the function u is (B)_B(R)-measurable. Choose any !1 À B, !2 À B c and define c1 = u(!1 ), c2 = u(!2 ). If u were not of the form (?), then there would be some ! À ⌦

such that u(!) Ã {c1 , c2 }. In this case A := {u(!)} satisfies u*1 (A) Ã {Á, ⌦, B, B c }, contradicting the measurability of u. By definition, L (⌦, (B), ) =

We have already shown that the (B)-measurable maps are given by (?). Because of the linearity of the integral we see that  

up d = c1 p (B) + c2 p (B c ).

Consequently, u À Lp (⌦, (B), ) if, and only if, • c1 = 0 or (B) < ÿ • c2 = 0 or (B c ) < ÿ.

In particular, every map of the form (?) is in Lp (⌦, (B), ) if

Problem 13.7 Solution: Let us show first of all that Lp -limkôÿ uk = u. This follows immediately ≥ from limkôÿ Òu * uk Òp = 0 since the series ÿ k=1 Òu * uk Òp converges. Therefore, we can find a subsequence (uk(j) )jÀN such that lim u (x) jôÿ k(j)

= u(x)

almost everywhere.

Now we want to show that u is the a.e. limit of the original sequence. For this we mimic the trick from the Riesz–Fischer theorem 13.7 and show that the series

ÿ K … … (uj+1 * uj ) = lim (uj+1 * uj ) = lim uK j=0

Kôÿ

j=0

Kôÿ

(again we agree on u0 := 0 for notational convenience) makes sense. So let us employ Lemma 13.6 used in the proof of the Riesz–Fischer theorem to get

Òuj+1 * uÒp + Òu * uj Òp

1. This shows that the Lp -limit of this subsequence—let us call it w if it exists at all—cannot be (not even a.e.) u = 0.

On the other hand, we know that a sub-subsequence (õ uk(j) )j of (uk(j) )j converges pointwise almost everywhere to the Lp -limit:

lim õ uk(j) (x) = w(x). j

Since the full sequence limn un (x) = u(x) = 0 has a limit, this shows that the sub-sub-sequence limit w(x) = 0 almost everywhere—a contradiction. Thus, w does not exist in the first place.

the fact that V (x) := xs_r , x À R, is convex (cf. also Problem 13.1). In particular, ÒuÒr < ÿ for all r À (0, q).

• We have

 

log u d Õ log ÒuÒp

(?)

≈ p À (0, q).

This follows again from Jensen’s inequality applied to the convex function V (x) := * log x: 0 1 p * log u d Õ * log(up ) d * p log u d ;       therefore,

0 1 1 p log ÒuÒp = log u d Œ log u d .     p

Because of (?) it is enough to show that limpô0 ÒuÒp Õ exp(î ln u d ). (Note: by the monotonicity of ÒuÒp as p ö 0 we know that the limit limpô0 ÒuÒp exists.) Note that ap * 1 , p>0 p

Since

On the other hand, we have for p > q  

u(x)p d =

 

q u(x)p*q u(x)q d Õ ÒuÒp*q ÿ ÒuÒq .

Taking pth roots on both sides of the inequality, we get 0 q1 p*q p lim sup ÒuÒp Õ lim sup ÒuÒÿ ÒuÒqp = ÒuÒÿ . pôÿ

pôÿ

This finishes the proof for all ÒuÒLÿ < ÿ. Case 2: ÒuÒLÿ = ÿ. The estimate

lim sup ÒuÒp Õ ÒuÒÿ pôÿ

is trivially true. The converse inequality follows like this: Define AR := {u Œ R}, R > 0. We have (Ar ) > 0 (otherwise ÒuÒLÿ < ÿ!) and, as in the first part of the proof, we find 0 ÒuÒp Œ

Thus, lim inf pôÿ ÒuÒp Œ R and since R > 0 is arbitrary, the claim follows: lim inf ÒuÒp Œ ÿ = ÒuÒÿ . pôÿ

Solution Manual. Chapter 1–13. Last update 23rd August 2017 Since this integrability criterion does not depend on p Œ 1, it is clear that E + „Lp ( ) = E + „L1 ( ), and the rest follows since E = E + * E + .

∑∑ Problem 13.24 Solution: (i) ◊Ÿ (ii) and (iii) ◊Ÿ (iv), since ⇤ is concave if, and only if, V = *⇤ is convex. Moreover, (iii) generalizes (i) and (iv) gives (ii). It is, therefore, enough to verify (iii). Since u is integrable and takes values in (a, b), we get a=

 

a (dx) <

 

u(x) (dx) <

 

b (dx) = b.

This shows that the l.h.S. of the Jensen inequality is well-defined. The rest of the proof is similar to the one of Theorem 13.13: take some affine-linear l(x) = ↵x + x À (a, b) – and notice that 0 1 l ud =↵ ud +

Problem 17.2 Solution: (i) Continuity follows from the continuity of the function x ;ô d(x, A), cf. (17.1). Clearly,

0 Õ uk Õ 1 and uk K = 1 and uUkc = 0. Since UK ö K, we get uk ö 1K . Since U k is closed and bounded, it is clear that U k is compact, i.e. supp uk is compact.

(ii) This follows from (i) and monotone convergence.

(iii) We have (K) = ⌫(K) for all compact sets K œ Rn and the compact sets generate

the Borel -algebra. In particular, this holds for [*k, k]n ~ Rn , so that the conditions for the uniqueness theorem for measures (Theorem 5.7) are satisfied. We conclude that = ⌫.

(iv) Since each x has a compact neighbourhood, we can choose k so large that B1_k (x) ∑ becomes compact. In particular, K œ xÀK B1_k(x) (x) is an open cover. We can choose

each k(x) so large, that B1_k(x) (x) has a compact closure. Since K is compact, we find ∑ finitely many xi such that K œ i B1_k(xi ) (xi ) = Uk where k := maxi ki . In particular, ∑ U k œ i B1_(xi ) (xi ) is compact. This produces a sequence of Uk ö K. The rest follows almost literally as in the previous steps.

This finishes the proof of the first assertion. The second claim follows in a similar way. Consider first f À Cc (R) and K := supp f . Since K is compact, there is some R > 0 with (h + K) „ K = Á1 for all h > R. If h > R, then

f (x * h) * f (x)p = f (x * h)p 1K (x + h) + f (x)p 1K (x) and so Ò⌧h f * f Òpp = =

R.L. Schilling: Measures, Integrals & Martingales Problem 17.6 Solution: A set U œ X is said to be relatively compact if it closure U is compact. (i) Let (xn )nÀN be a countable dense subset of X. By assumption, each xn has a relatively

compact open neighbourhood: xn À Vn and V n is compact. Since B1_k (xn ) œ Vn for sufficiently large values of k Œ k0 (xn ), we see that the balls B1_k (xn ), k Œ k0 (xn ), are also relatively compact. Thus,

{B1_k (xn ) : n À N, k Œ k0 (xn )} =: {Un ; n À N} is a sequence of relatively compact, open sets. For any open set U œ X we find U=

(The inclusion ‘–’ is obvious. In order to see ‘œ’ we observe that for any x À U there is some r > 0 with Br (x) œ U . Since (xn )nÀN is dense, we may choose n À N and k Œ k0 (xn ) such that B1_k (xn ) œ Br (x) œ U .)

(ii) The sets Kn := U 1 ‰ 5 ‰ U n are compact and increase towards X.

(iii) Assume that U œ X is an open set such that (U ) < ÿ and let (Un )nÀN be the sequence

from part (i). Because of (i), there is a subsequence (Un(k) )kÀN œ (Un )nÀN such that ∑ ∑ U = k Un(k) . Set Wn := nk=1 Un(k) and observe that Wn À D. Since Wn ~ U , Beppo Levi’s theorem shows that

When using the monotonicity we must make sure that H (U k ) < ÿ – this we can enforce by U k ‰ U k „ U (where U is the open set with finite Hausdorff measure).

For counting measure this is clearly violated: Any open set U – A := {a} has infinitely many points! Nevertheless A is itself a G -set.

∑∑ Problem 18.3 Solution: By Corollary 18.10 there are open sets Ui such that H := H (H ‰ B) = 0 or H (H) = H (B). Now we can write each Ui as an F -set: Ui =

i Ui

– B and

Br_2 (x)

is indeed a countable union of closed sets, since Ui œ X contains a countable dense subset. So we have

Ui =

Without loss of generality we may assume that the sets Fik increase in k, otherwise we would

consider Fi1 ‰ 5 ‰ Fik . By the continuity of measure (here we require the measurability of B!) we have

lim H (B „ Fik ) = H (B „ Ui ) = H (B).

∑∑ Problem 18.4 Solution: Fix A œ Rn . We have to show that for any Q œ Rn the equality #Q = #(Q „ A) + #(Q ‰ A) holds. We distinguish between two cases. Case 1: #Q = ÿ. Then at least one of the terms #(Q „ A), #(Q ‰ A) on the right-hand side must be infinite, so the equality is clear.

Case 2: #Q < ÿ. Then both sets (Q „ A), (Q ‰ A) are finite and, as such, they are metrically separated. Therefore we can use the fact that H (A) = #(A) is a metric outer measure (Theorem 18.5) 0

so that f g is almost everywhere equal to 1 and the claim follows. Because of Problem 20.4 (which is just Corollary 25.6) it is clear that f , g < ÿ a.e. and, by the same argument, f , g > 0 a.e.

Problem 20.4 Solution: See the proof of Corollary 25.6. ∑∑ Problem 20.5 Solution: See the proof of Theorem 25.9. ∑∑ Problem 20.6 Solution: (i) If F is AC, continuity is trivial, just take N = 2 in the very definition of AC functions.

To see that F is also BV, we take ✏ = 1 and choose > 0 such that for any subcollection a Õ ≥ ≥ x1 < y1 < 5 < xN < yN Õ b with n (yn * xn ) < we have n F (yn ) * F (xn ) < 1. Let M = [(b*a)_ ]+1 and ai = a+i(b*a)_M for i = 0, 1, … , M. Clearly, ai *ai*1 = (b*a)_M < and, in particular, V (f , [ai*1 , ai ]) < 1 for all i = 0, 1, … M. Thus, V (f ; [a, b]) Õ

M … i=1

V (f , [ai*1 , ai ]) < M.

(ii) Following the hint, we see that f is increasing. Define g := F * f . We have to show that g is increasing. Let x < y. Obviously,

V (f ; [a, x]) + F (y) * F (x) Õ V (f ; [a, x]) + F (y) * F (x) Õ V (f ; [a, y]) (since the points x < y can be added to extend any partition of [a, x] to give a partition of [a, y]). This gives g(x) Õ g(y).

f1 (x) = V (F , [a, x]). Since F is absolutely continuous, so is f1 , hence f2 . This follows from the observation that

V (F , [a, y]) * V (F , [a, x]) = V (F , [x, y]) Since the fi are continuous, the set-functions

to measures on the Borel -algebra – see also Problem 6.1.

Now let N be a Lebesgue null-set. For every > 0 we can cover N by finitely many intervals ≥ [xi , yi ] such that i (yi * xi ) < . Without loss of generality we can make the intervals nonoverlapping and their length is still < . Since the fi are AC, we find for every ✏ some that

and from this it is clear that ⌫ = 1[1,2] ⌫ + 1(2,3] ⌫ = 1[1,2] + 1(2,3] and from this we read off that 1[1,2] ⌫ ~ while 1(2,3] ⌫Ú . It is interesting to note how ‘big’ the null-set of ambiguity for the Lebesgue decomposition is—it

is actually R ‰ [0, 3] a, from a Lebesgue (i.e. ) point of view, huge and infinite set, but from a -⌫-perspective a negligible, namely null, set.

Since uj * uk  Õ uj * u + u * uk  ≈j, k À N we see that {uj * uk  > 2✏} œ {uj * u > ✏} ‰ {u * uk  > ✏} (since, otherwise uj * uk  Õ ✏ + ✏ = 2✏). Thus, we get for every measurable set A with finite -measure that

Let (Al )l be an exhausting sequence such that Al ~ X and (Aj ) < ÿ.

The problem is to identify the limiting function. Fix l. By assumption, we can choose Nj À N, j À N, such that ≈ m, n Œ Nj : 254

{um * un  > 2*j } „ Al < 2*j .

Solution Manual. Chapter 1–13. Last update 23rd August 2017 (Note that Nj may depend on l, but we suppress this dependency as l is fixed.) By enlarging Nj , if needed, we can always assume that

N1 < N2 < 5 < Nj < Nj+1 ô ÿ. Consequently, there is an exceptional set Ej œ Al with (Ej „ Al ) < 2*j such that uNj+1 (x) * uNj (x) Õ 2*j and, if Ei< :=

we have (Ei „ Al ) Õ 2 2*i as well as

uNj+1 (x) * uNj (x) Õ 2*j

≈ x À Al ‰ Ei< .

This means that … j

(uNj+1 * uNj ) converges uniformly for x À Al ‰ Ei<

so that limj uNj exists uniformly on Al ‰ Ei< for all i. Since (Ei< „ Al ) < 2 2*i we conclude that

lim uNj 1Al = u(l) 1Al exists almost everywhere j

for some u(l) . Since, however, a.e. limits are unique (up to a null set, that is) we know that

u(l) = u(m) a.e. on Al „Am so that there is a (up to null sets) unique limit function u satisfying lim uNj = u exists a.e., hence in measure by Lemma 22.4. j

(*)

Thus, we have found a candidate for the limit of our Cauchy sequence. In fact, since uk * u Õ uk * uNj  + uNj * u we have ({uk * u > ✏} „ Al ) Õ ({uk * uNj  > ✏} „ Al ) + ({uNj * u > ✏} „ Al ) and the first expression on the right-hand side tends to zero (as k, N(j) ô ÿ) because of the assumption, while the second term tends to zero (as N(j) ô ÿ) because of (*))

∑∑ Problem 22.4 Solution:

This means, however, that potential a.e. and Lp -limits must be f í 0, too. Since for every x

lim inf fn,j (x) = 0 < ÿ = lim sup fn,j 255

R.L. Schilling: Measures, Integrals & Martingales the sequence cannot converge at any point.

Also the Lp -limit (if p Œ 1) does not exist, since  

fn,j p d = np [(j * 1)_n, j_n] = np*1 .

(ii) As in (i) we see that gn ,,,,,ô , g í 0. Similarly,  

gn p d = np (0, 1_n) = np*1

so that the Lp -limit does not exist. The pointwise limit, however, exists since lim n1(0,n) (x) = 0.

nôÿ

for every x À (0, 1). (iii) The shape of gn is that of a triangle with base [0, 1_n]. Thus, for every ✏ > 0, (hn  > ✏) Õ [0, 1_n] =

which shows that hn ,,,,,ô , h í 0. This must be, if the respective limits exist, also the limiting function for a.e. and Lp -convergence. Since

we have Lp -convergence if, and only if, the sequence apn _n tends to zero as n ô ÿ.

We have, however, always a.e. convergence since the support of the function hn is [0, 1_n] and this shrinks to {0} which is a null set. Thus, lim an (1 * nx)+ = 0 n

∑∑ Problem 22.6 Solution: The hint is somewhat misleading since this construction is not always possible (or sensible). Just imagine R with the counting measure. Then X

would be all of R...

What I had in mind when giving this hint was a construction along the following lines: Consider Lebesgue measure

in R and define f := 1F + ÿ1F c where F = [*1, 1] (or any other

set of finite Lebesgue measure). Then

:= f

({un * u > ✏} „ A) = ({un * u > ✏} „ A) since all sets A with (A) < ÿ are contained in F and (F ) = (F ) < ÿ. Thus, un ,,,,,ô , u.

However, changing u arbitrarily on 1F c also yields a limit point in -measure since, as mentioned above, all sets of finite -measure are within F .

uj  d = [j, j + 1] = 1 ë 0

so that the limit—if it exists—cannot be u í 0. Since this is, however, the canonical candidate, we conclude that there is no L1 convergence.

(iii) The limit depends on the set A which is fixed. This means that we are, essentially, dealing with a finite measure space.

Necessity is again trivial. Sufficiency: assume that (xn )n does not converge to 0. Then

the sequence (min{xn , 1})n is bounded and still does not converge to 0. Since this sequence is bounded, it contains a convergent subsequence (xnk )k with some limit ↵ ë 0. But then (xnk )k cannot contain a sub-subsequence (õ xnk )k which is a null sequence.

Note that (unless we are in a -finite measure space) the exceptional set may depend on the testing set A.

Conversely, assume that every subsequence (unk )k œ (un )n has a sub-subsequence (õ unk )k satisfying (*). Because of Lemma 22.4 we have lim k

{õ unk * u > ✏} „ A = 0.

Assume now that un does not converge in -measure on A to u. Then xn := ({un * u > ✏} „ A) ô ° 0. Since the whole sequence (xn )n is bounded (by (A)) there exists some subsequence (xnk )k given by (unk )k such that

This contradicts, however, the fact that xnk has itself a subsequence converging to zero.

(iii) Fix some set A of finite -measure. All conclusions below take place relative to resp. on this set only.

Let us, therefore, only verify (iii). Without loss of generality (see the complexification of a real inner product space in Problem 26.3) we can consider the real case where L2 = L2R . • L2 is a vector space — this was done in Remark 13.5. • Íu, vÎ is finite on L2 ù L2 — this is the Cauchy–Schwarz inequality 13.3. • Íu, vÎ is bilinear — this is due to the linearity of the integral. • Íu, vÎ is symmetric — this is obvious. • Ív, vÎ is definite, and ÒuÒ2 is a Norm — cf. Remark 13.5. ∑∑ Problem 26.2 Solution: (i) We prove it for the complex case—the real case is simpler. Observe that Íu ± w, u ± wÎ = Íu, uÎ ± Íu, wÎ ± Íw, uÎ + Íw, wÎ = Íu, uÎ ± Íu, wÎ ± Íu, wÎ + Íw, wÎ = Íu, uÎ ± 2 ReÍu, wÎ + Íw, wÎ. Thus, Íu + w, u + wÎ + Íu * w, u * wÎ = 2Íu, uÎ + 2Íw, wÎ. Since ÒvÒ2 = Ív, vÎ we are done. (ii) (SP1 ): Obviously, 0 < (u, u) =

= 4(u, w) + 4(v, w) and the claim follows.

(iv) We show (qv, w) = q(v, w) for all q À Q. If q = n À N0 , we iterate (iii) n times and have

(nv, w) = n(v, w)

≈ n À N0

(*)

(the case n = 0 is obvious). By the same argument, we get for m À N (v, w) = m m1 v, w = m

which means that

(pu + qv, w) = p(u, w) + q(v, w)

This means that the maps t ;ô tv ± w are continuous and so is t ;ô (tv, w) as the sum of two continuous maps. If t À R is arbitrary, we pick a sequence (qj )jÀN œ Q such that limj qj = t. Then

(tv, w) = lim(qj v, w) = lim qj (qv, w) = t(v, w) j

(↵u + v, w)C = ↵(u, w)R + (v, w)R + i↵(u, iw)R + i (v, iw)R = ↵(u, w)C + (v, w)C . Therefore to get the general case where ↵,

ÍP (↵f + g), hÎ = Í↵f + g, P hÎ = ↵Íf , P hÎ + Íg, P hÎ = ↵ÍP f , hÎ + ÍP g, hÎ = Í↵P f + P g, hÎ and we conclude that P (↵f + g) = ↵P f + P g. Continuity of P : We have for all h À H

ÒP hÒ2 = ÍP h, P hÎ = ÍP 2 h, hÎ = ÍP h, hÎ Õ ÒP hÒ ÒhÒ and dividing by ÒP hÒ shows that P is continuous, even a contraction.

Closedness of P (H): Note that f À P (H) if, and only if, f = P h for some h À H. Since P 2 = P we get

f = P h ◊Ÿ f * P h = 0 ◊Ÿ f * P 2 h = 0 ◊Ÿ f * P f = 0 ◊Ÿ f À (id *P )*1 ({0})

Solution Manual. Chapter 1–13. Last update 23rd August 2017 and since P is continuous and {0} is a closed set, (id *P )*1 ({0}) is closed and the above line shows P (H) = (id *P )*1 ({0}) is closed.

Projection: In view of Corollary 26.14 we have to show that P h * h is for any h À H orthogonal to f À P (H). But

ÍP h * h, f Î = ÍP h, f Î * Íh, f Î = Íh, P f Î * Íh, f Î = Íh, f Î * Íh, f Î = 0. (iii) Since, by assumption, ÒP hÒ Õ ÒhÒ, P is continuous and closedness follows just as in (ii). It is, therefore, enough to show that P is an orthogonal projection. We will show that N := {h À H : P h = 0} satisfies N Ú = P (H).

For this we observe that if h À H, P (P h * h) = P 2 h * P h = P h * P h = 0 so that P h * h À N. In particular

h À N Ú -Ÿ y = P h * h À N

-Ÿ P h = h + y with hÚy.

(*)

Thus, ÒhÒ2 + ÒyÒ2 = ÒP hÒ2 Õ ÒhÒ2 -Ÿ ÒyÒ2 -Ÿ y = 0. We conclude that h À N Ú -Ÿ P h * h = 0 -Ÿ P h = h -Ÿ h À P (H) and we have shown that N Ú œ P (H).

To see the converse direction we pick h À P (H) and find P h = h. Since H = N ‚ N Ú we have h = x + xÚ with x À N and xÚ À N Ú . Thus,

If you are unhappy with strict inequalities, you can extend the argument as follows: By assumption ∑ {u > 1} > 0. Since {u > 1} = nŒ1 {u Œ 1+1_n}, there is some N such that {u Œ 1+1_n} > 0 for all n Œ N — use a continuity of measure argument. Now we get for all n Œ N

Since un ô u a.e., dominated convergence (use the majorant up ) shows that un ô u in Lp . Thus, we see as in the remark before Theorem 27.5 that (T un )nÀN is a Cauchy sequence in Lp ( ), i.e. the

limit Lp -limn T un exists. If (wn )n is a further approximating sequence such that wn ô u in Lp ( ), we get

which shows that limn T un = limn T wn , i.e. Tõ u := limn T un (as an Lp -limit) is well-defined since it is independent of the approximating sequence. Linearity is clear from the linearity of the limit.

Assume now that 0 Õ un ~ u where un À Lp ( ) „ L2 ( ). By the first part, Tõ u = limn T un in Lp , so there is a subsequence such that Tõ u = limk T un a.e. Because of monotonicity we have k

∑∑ Problem 28.8 Solution: This is not as trivial as it looks in the first place! Since u is itself a Haar function, we have

sN (u, x) = u(x)

≈N À N

(it is actually the first Haar function) so that sN converges in any Lp -norm, 1 Õ p < ÿ to u.

The same applies to the right tail of the Haar wavelet expansion. The left tail, however, converges

only for 1 < p < ÿ in Lp . The reason is the calculation of Step 5 in the proof of Theorem 28.20 which goes in the case p = 1: EA*M u = 2*M

sn (u; x) = EAn u(x) is the projection onto the sets in AnH , see e.g. Step 2 in the proof of Theorem 28.17, we have sn (u; x) =

1 u(y) dx1I (x) (I)  I

where I is an dyadic interval from the generator of AnH as in Step 2 of the proof of Theorem 28.17. Thus, if x is from I we get
