Lecture 11

Today we covered Tao 8.3, 8.4, and 8.5. Here is the video, but I made a stupid mistake regarding Fubini theorem.

I made a mistake in today's presentation in 8.5. Namely, given a measurable function f(x,y)f(x,y). First of all, for a fixed xx, the function fx(y)=f(x,y)f_x(y) = f(x,y) as a function of yy, may not be measurable at all. For example, take a measurable subset ER2E \In \R^2, it is possible that certain slice Ex=E{x}×RE_x = E \cap \{x\} \times \R, when viewed as a subset of R\R, is non-measurable (it is measurable as a subset of R2\R^2, a null-set), then consider ff as indicator function 1E(x,y)1_E(x,y). Hence, the proper way to state the Fubini theorem, is that, there exists a measurable function F(x)F(x), such that there exists a null-set ZZ, and for xZx \notin Z, we have fx(y)f_x(y) is measurable, and F(x)=fx(y)dy. F(x) = \int f_x(y) dy. and F(x)dx=f(x,y)dxdy \int F(x) dx = \int f(x,y) dx dy

I will revisit this theorem on Thursday.
