Let A = union ( i from 1 to infinity) of M_i, Mi's are disjoint, show that m*(A) = sum (i from 1 to infinity) of |M_i|

m*(A) is the outer measure of A, that is, m*(A) = inf sum (i from 1 to infinity) of M_i.

PLEASE NOTICE THE = SIGN, A = the union, not a subset of the union.

  • Lebesgue measures

    The outer measure M* defined on set E is defined as: M*(E) = inf{∑M(Ei)}, E,Ei ∈ 2X for i=1,2,3..., ∞. If E is subset of Ks = { -s ≤ xi≤ s}, clearly, Ks is compact set. Let Ec = X/E, the complement of set E.
