Content $0$ implies boundary has content $0$
$begingroup$
Problem: If a set $C$ has content $0$, then the boundary must also have content $0$.
The solution say
Solution: Suppose a finite set of rectangle $ U_i = (a_{i1},b_{i1}) times dots times (a_{in}, b_{in})$ where $i in {1, dots, m }$ cover $C$ and have total volume less than $epsilon/ 2$ where $epsilon >0.$ Let $V_i = (a_{i1} - delta ,b_{i1} + delta) times dots times (a_{in} - delta , b_{in} + delta)$ where
$$prod_{iin { 1,dots,n}} (b_{ij} - a_{ij} + 2delta) - prod_{iin { 1,dots,n}} (b_{ij} - a_{aj} ) < epsilon/2m .$$
Or equivalently,
Then the union of $V_i$ cover the boundary of $C$ and have total volume less than $epsilon$. Hence $partial C$ is also of content $0$.
This is a really simple question, but does $V_i - U_i$ cover $partial C$? $V_i - U_i$ means the part where we remove $U_i$ from $V_i$.
Also is the last step because of $$ sum_{i = 1}^m vol(cup( V_i - U_i)) leq sum_{i = 1}^mprod (b_{ij} - a_{aj} + 2delta) - prod (b_{ij} - a_{aj} ) < sum_{i = 1}^m epsilon/2m = epsilon /2.$$
or equivalently,
$$ sum_{i = 1}^m vol(cup V_i ) leq sum_{i = 1}^mprod (b_{ij} - a_{aj} + 2delta) < sum_{i = 1}^m epsilon/2m + prod (b_{ij} - a_{aj} ) < epsilon /2 + epsilon/2 = epsilon. $$
Am I also correct to understand the outline of this proof is
Use the finite cover that covers $C$, and take a $delta$ cover over that finite cover just enough to cover the boundary of $C$.
Using the finite cover of $C$, demand this cover so that it has volume less than $epsilon/2$. Pick $delta$ small enough so that we get
$$prod_{iin { 1,dots,n}} (b_{ij} - a_{ij} + 2delta) - prod_{iin { 1,dots,n}} (b_{ij} - a_{aj} ) < epsilon/2m .$$
- Use finite subadditivitly to finish off the estimation.

Note that you can take the cover to be closed (with the same volume) and the closed cover also covers the closure of $C$, and hence the boundary.

$V_i-U_i$ will not cover $C$ in general. Note that $U_i$ is large enough to cover $C$, but it may be wasteful.
So the only trick is really to start with a sufficiently small finite cover for $C$, and blow it up slightly so that $V_isupset overline {U_i}$ and hence $bigcup V_isupset bigcup overline{U_i}=overline{bigcup U_i}supset overline Csupset partial C$, and thus obtain an arbitrarily small cover of $partial C$.
$endgroup$
$begingroup$
Actually mentioning $V_i - U_i$ is red herring. It could possibly miss the entire set. Were my reasons for the outlines incorrect?
