Stieltjes measures on the real line #

Consider a function f : ℝ → ℝ which is monotone and right-continuous. Then one can define a corresponding measure, giving mass f b - f a to the interval (a, b].

Main definitions #

StieltjesFunction is a structure containing a function from ℝ → ℝ, together with the assertions that it is monotone and right-continuous. To f : StieltjesFunction, one associates a Borel measure f.measure.
f.measure_Ioc asserts that f.measure (Ioc a b) = ofReal (f b - f a)
f.measure_Ioo asserts that f.measure (Ioo a b) = ofReal (leftLim f b - f a).
f.measure_Icc and f.measure_Ico are analogous.

theorem StieltjesFunction.length_subadditive_Icc_Ioo (f : StieltjesFunction) {a : ℝ} {b : ℝ} {c : ℕ → ℝ} {d : ℕ → ℝ} (ss : Set.Icc a b ⊆ ⋃ (i : ℕ), Set.Ioo (c i) (d i)) :

ENNReal.ofReal (↑f b - ↑f a) ≤ ∑' (i : ℕ), ENNReal.ofReal (↑f (d i) - ↑f (c i))

If a compact interval [a, b] is covered by a union of open interval (c i, d i), then f b - f a ≤ ∑ f (d i) - f (c i). This is an auxiliary technical statement to prove the same statement for half-open intervals, the point of the current statement being that one can use compactness to reduce it to a finite sum, and argue by induction on the size of the covering set.
