proof of monotone convergence theorem
proof of monotone convergence
theorem
It is enough to prove the following
Theorem 1.
Let(X,) be a measurable space and let fk:X {+} be a monotone increasing
sequence of positive measurable functions (i.e. 0 f1 f2 ). Then
f(x) = limk fk(x) is measurable and
lim
n
X
fkd =X
f(x)d .
First of all by the monotonicity (http://planetmath.org/node/40195) of the sequence
(http://planetmath.org/node/30397) we have
f(x) = supk
fk(x)
hence we know that f is measurable (http://planetmath.org/node/36778) . Moreover being
fk ffor all k, by the monotonicity of the integral (http://planetmath.org/node/31920) , we
immediately get
supk
Xfkd
Xf(x)d .
So take any simple (http://planetmath.org/node/32189) measurable function
(http://planetmath.org/node/33176) s such that 0 s f. Given also < 1 define
Ek= {xX: fk(x) s(x)} .
The sequence Ekis an increasing (http://planetmath.org/node/34228) sequence of
measurable sets (http://planetmath.org/node/30755) . Moreover the union (http://planetmath.org
/node/34394)of all Ekis the whole spaceXsince limk fk(x) = f(x) s(x) > s(x).
Moreover it holds
X
fkd Ek
fkd Ek
sd .
Since s is a simple measurable function it is easy to check that E Esd is a
measure (http://planetmath.org/node/40498) and hence
supk
Xfkd
Xsd .
But this last inequality (http://planetmath.org/node/30000) holds for every < 1 and for all
simple measurable functions s with s f. Hence by the definition (http://planetmath.org
/node/39936)ofLebesgue integral (http://planetmath.org/node/31920)
supk
Xfkd
Xf d
which completes (http://planetmath.org/node/33445) the proof.

The last inequality (/comment/2103#comment-2103)

Should the last inequality be
$\displaystyle{ \int_X fd\mu \leq \sup_{k}\int_X f_k d\mu }$
instead of $\int_k$ on the RHS ?

Yes, thanks. I corrected it.
