Exchange limit on bounds of Lebesgue integral

$begingroup$


Let $(E_n)_{n in mathbb{N}}$ be a sequence of measurable sets such that $lim_{n to infty} E_n =E$ for some measurable set $E$. When does it hold that
$$ lim_{n to infty}int_{E_n}f d mu = int_{E}f dmu$$
What if we replace $lim$ with $lim sup$ or $lim inf$?

    @TedShifrin Yes I tried that. At least for positive $f$ wouldn't that imply that this is always true? The limit and the integral can be exchanged because $fchi_{E_n}$ is non-decreasing.

Let $f$ be an integrable function. i.e. $fin L^1(Bbb R)$. Then we have $|fchi_{E_n}|le |f|$ for all $ninBbb N$, hence by Dominated Convergence Theorem we have
$$begin{align}
int_Ef,dmu &= int fchi_E,dmu \
&= lim_{ntoinfty} int fchi_{E_n} ,dmu \
&= lim_{ntoinfty} int_{E_n} f,dmu
end{align}$$

provided that $chi_{E_n}tochi_E$ almost everywhere.




The pointwise convergence a.e. of $chi_{E_n}$ can be a result of letting $$E=bigcup_n E_n, $$
for example, or even a weaker hypothesis like $E=liminf_{ntoinfty} E_n$, i.e.
$$
E = bigcup_{n=1}^infty bigcap_{kge n} E_k.
$$




If we only assume that $fin L^1_{text{loc}}(Bbb R)$ then the previous convergent result still holds, provided that we assume further that $E,E_n$ are contained in some bounded set $Bsubset Bbb R$ (because we can apply the above argument by viewing $fin L^1(B)$).



If $f$ is not even locally integrable, then we can find counterexamples so that $int_Ef,dmu ne lim_{ntoinfty} int_{E_n} f,dmu$.






Alternatively, we can consider the pseudo-distance function
$$
d(A,B) := mu(ADelta B)
$$

defined on $mathcal A$, the family of Lebesgue measurable sets of $Bbb R$. Define the equivalent relation $Asim B$ iff $d(A,B)=0$, then the set of equivalent classes $mathcal A/sim$ forms a (complete) metric space. We can now interpret $E = lim_{ntoinfty} E_n$ as
$$
d(E,E_n) to 0
$$

in $mathcal A/sim$.




Now, any $fin L^1(Bbb R)$ induces an absolutely continuous signed measure on $Bbb R$. Hence for any $varepsilon>0$ we can find a number $delta>0$ such that $mu(A)<delta$ implies
$$
int_A |f|,dmu < varepsilon.
$$

Thus for sufficiently large $n$, we have
$$
left| int_E f,dmu - int_{E_n} f,dmu right|le int_{EDelta E_n} |f|,dmu < varepsilon
$$

since $mu(EDelta E_n)to 0$. This shows that $lim_{n to infty}int_{E_n}f d mu = int_{E}f dmu$.





Similarly, if we instead assume $fin L^infty (Bbb R)$ then for sufficiently large $n$ we have
$$
left| int_E f,dmu - int_{E_n} f,dmu right|le int_{EDelta E_n} |f|,dmu le mu(EDelta E_n) ||f||_infty to 0
$$

as $d(E,E_n)to 0$, which implies $lim_{n to infty}int_{E_n}f d mu = int_{E}f dmu$ also.

Take the Lebesgue measured space $(mathbb R, mu)$, $E_n= (-infty, 1/n)$ and



$$f(x)=begin{cases}
0 & x le 0\
1/x & x>0
end{cases}$$



Then $limlimits_{n to infty}E_n =(-infty , 0]$. And



$$infty = lim_{n to infty}int_{E_n}f d mu neq int_{E}f dmu =0$$

    $$

    in $mathcal A/sim$.




    Now, any $fin L^1(Bbb R)$ induces an absolutely continuous signed measure on $Bbb R$. Hence for any $varepsilon>0$ we can find a number $delta>0$ such that $mu(A)<delta$ implies
    $$
    int_A |f|,dmu < varepsilon.
    $$

    Thus for sufficiently large $n$, we have
    $$
    left| int_E f,dmu - int_{E_n} f,dmu right|le int_{EDelta E_n} |f|,dmu < varepsilon
    $$

    since $mu(EDelta E_n)to 0$. This shows that $lim_{n to infty}int_{E_n}f d mu = int_{E}f dmu$.





    Similarly, if we instead assume $fin L^infty (Bbb R)$ then for sufficiently large $n$ we have
    $$
    left| int_E f,dmu - int_{E_n} f,dmu right|le int_{EDelta E_n} |f|,dmu le mu(EDelta E_n) ||f||_infty to 0
    $$

    as $d(E,E_n)to 0$, which implies $lim_{n to infty}int_{E_n}f d mu = int_{E}f dmu$ also.

    Take the Lebesgue measured space $(mathbb R, mu)$, $E_n= (-infty, 1/n)$ and



    $$f(x)=begin{cases}
    0 & x le 0\
    1/x & x>0
    end{cases}$$



    Then $limlimits_{n to infty}E_n =(-infty , 0]$. And



    $$infty = lim_{n to infty}int_{E_n}f d mu neq int_{E}f dmu =0$$
