Regularity of Lebesgue measure












3












$begingroup$


Let $Asubseteq mathbb{R}$ be a Lebesgue measurable set of measure $m(A)=p>0$. Then for all $0<q<p$, show that there is a subset $Bsubseteq A$ with $m(B)=q$.



Which Theorem do i have to use here, regularity or density of Lebesgue measure or something else ?

$begingroup$

Consider $f(x) = int_A 1_{(-infty, x]}$. Then $lim_{x to -infty} f(x) = 0$, $lim_{x to +infty} f(x) = p$ and $f$ is continuous.



Then, use the intermediate value theorem.

  • $begingroup$
    Why is f continuous ? I think we can't prove it with $epsilon-delta$ criterion ( $m(A)<deltaRightarrowint_{A} mathbb{1}_{(-infty,x]}<epsilon $) because this is precisely the exercise, to show that such a $delta$ exists.

    No, this is not precisely the exercise. Suppose $x>y$, then $|f(x)-f(y)| = int_A 1_{(y,x]} le int 1_{(y,x]} = |x-y|$. Similarly for $x>y$. Hence $f$ is Lipschitz continuous with rank 1.
