How statement and proof provenance work

The first chip identifies the source of the statement or construction; the second identifies the source of its local proof or verification.

  • Literature-sourced: the exact statement appears in a cited source; only wording and notation differ.
  • AI-adapted: a semantically identical restatement of literature-sourced material, modulo indexing, notation, and boundary cases adopted by the library.
  • AI-generated: a genuinely novel statement formulated by AI, with no source for the claim itself.

These labels describe origin, not correctness: citations and verification chips remain separate evidence.

Dominated convergence

Statement

Let f and (fn) be measurable complex-valued functions such that fnf almost everywhere and fng almost everywhere for a single nonnegative measurable function g with gdμ<+. Then fL1(μ), fnfdμ0, and hence fndμfdμ.

Facts & Assumptions

Given: Measurable complex-valued functions f,fn with fnf almost everywhere and fng almost everywhere for one nonnegative measurable function g of finite integral.

[L1]

Reverse Fatou's lemma holds under an integrable majorant (Reverse Fatou's lemma under an integrable majorant).

[L2]

The integral is linear on L1(μ) (The Lebesgue integral is linear on L1(μ)).

[L3]

The integral triangle inequality holds on L1(μ) (The modulus of an integral is bounded by the integral of the modulus).

[L4]

Real and complex integrability are defined in Integrable real and complex functions, and their integrals.

[L5]

The nonnegative integral is additive, and a nonnegative integral over a null set vanishes (Additivity of the nonnegative Lebesgue integral, A nonnegative integral over a null set vanishes).

[L6]

A nonnegative measurable function with finite integral is finite almost everywhere (A nonnegative measurable function with finite integral is finite almost everywhere).

[L7]

The nonnegative integral is monotone and homogeneous (Monotonicity and nonnegative homogeneity of the nonnegative integral).

Proof

technique · direct
1.1

Let N0 be a measurable null set outside which fn(x)f(x) and fn(x)g(x), and let N:={g=}. By [L6], the set N is null. Put N:=N0N, E:=XN, g~:=gχE,hn:=fnfχE. Then hn0 pointwise, 0hn2g~, and g~ is nonnegative, measurable, and finite everywhere. Also ffχN+g~. By [L5] and [L7], fdμfχNdμ+g~dμ=0+g~dμgdμ<+, so fL1(μ) by [L4].

2.1

The functions hn are nonnegative, converge pointwise to 0, and are dominated by the finite everywhere majorant 2g~. Applying [L1] therefore gives lim supnhndμ0dμ=0. Hence hndμ0.

step 1.1L1
3.1

Because fnfχN is supported on the null set N, [L5] gives fnfdμ=hndμ+fnfχNdμ=hndμ0. Therefore, by [L2] and [L3], fndμfdμ=(fnf)dμfnfdμ, and the right-hand side tends to 0.

Dependency tree · two levels

20 results within two dependency steps of this one, each drawn at its shortest distance from it. An arrow runs from a result to what uses it, so the chart reads left to right and ends at this result, which carries a heavier outline. Every node is a link to that result.
