\begin{definition}[Admissible Approximant Function]
|
|
\label{definition:admissible-approximant-function}
|
|
Let $X$ be a topological space and $\mathcal{A}: X \to 2^X$, then $\mathcal{A}$ is an \textbf{admissible approximant function} on $X$ if:
|
|
\begin{enumerate}[label=(AA\arabic*)]
|
|
\item For each $x \in X$, $x \in \overline{\mathcal{A}(x)^o}$.
|
|
\item $\bigcap_{x \in X}\mathcal{A}(x) \ne \emptyset$.
|
|
\end{enumerate}
|
|
|
|
and $\mathcal{A}$ is \textbf{Borel measurable} if:
|
|
\begin{enumerate}[label=(AA\arabic*), start=2]
|
|
\item[(B)] For any $x_0 \in X$, $\bracs{x \in X|x_0 \in \mathcal{A}(x)} \in \cb_X$.
|
|
\end{enumerate}
|

\end{definition}

\begin{lemma}
|
|
\label{lemma:admissible-approximant-existence}
|
|
Let $X$ be a topological space, and $\mathcal{A}: X \to 2^X$ be defined by $x \mapsto X$, then $\mathcal{A}$ is an \hyperref[admissible approximant function]{definition:admissible-approximant-function}.
|

\end{lemma}

\begin{definition}[Approximation of the Identity]
|
|
\label{definition:approximation-id-measure}
|
|
Let $X$ be a topological space, $\mathcal{A}: X \to 2^X$ be an \hyperref[admissible approximant function]{definition:admissible-approximant-function} and $\net{I} \subset X^X$ be a net, then $\net{I}$ is an \textbf{$\mathcal{A}$-admissible approximation of the identity} if:
|
|
\begin{enumerate}[label=(AI\arabic*)]
|
|
\item For each $x \in X$, $I_\alpha(x) \to x$.
|
|
\item For each $x \in X$ and $\alpha \in A$, $I_\alpha(x) \in \mathcal{A}(x)$.
|
|
\end{enumerate}
|
|
|
|
The approximation $\net{I}$ is \textbf{simple} if $I_\alpha$ is finitely-valued for all $\alpha \in A$, and \textbf{Borel measurable} if $I_\alpha$ is Borel measurable for all $\alpha \in A$.

|
\end{definition}

\begin{lemma}[Existence of Simple Approximations of the Identity]
|
|
\label{lemma:separable-metric-space-approx-identity}
|
|
Let $X$ be a separable metric space, $\mathcal{A}: X \to 2^X$ be a Borel measurable \hyperref[admissible approximant function]{definition:admissible-approximant-function}, and $\seq{x_n} \subset X$ be a dense subset with $x_1 \in \bigcap_{x \in X}\mathcal{A}(x)$, then there exists $\seq{I_n} \subset X^X$ such that:
|
|
\begin{enumerate}
|
|
\item $\seq{I_n}$ is an $\mathcal{A}$-admissible \hyperref[approximation of the identity]{definition:approximation-id-measure}.
|
|
\item For each $N \in \natp$, $I_N$ is Borel measurable with $I_N(X) \subset \bracsn{x_n|1 \le n \le N}$.
|
|
\item For each $N \in \natp$ and $x \in X$,
|
|
\[
|
|
d(x, I_N(x)) = \min\bracs{d(x, x_n)| 1 \le n \le N, x_n \in \mathcal{A}(x)}
|
|
\]
|
|
|
|
In particular, $I_N(x) \to x$ as $n \to \infty$.
|
|
\end{enumerate}
|
|
\end{lemma}
|
|
\begin{proof}
|
|
By removing duplicate elements from the sequence, assume without loss of generality that for each $m, n \in \natp$ with $m \ne n$, $x_m \ne x_n$.
|
|
|
|
Let $N \in \natp$. For each $x \in X$, let
|
|
\[
|
|
C_N(x) = \bracs{1 \le n \le N| x_n \in \mathcal{A}(x)}
|
|
\]
|
|
|
|
Since $x_1 \in \bigcap_{y \in X}\mathcal{A}(y)$, $1 \in C_N(x)$ and $C_N(x) \ne \emptyset$. Now, let
|
|
\[
|
|
k_N(x) = \min\bracs{n \in C_N(x) \bigg | d(x, x_n) = \min_{m \in C_N(x)}d(x, x_m)}
|
|
\]
|
|
|
|
be the minimum $n \in C_N(x)$ on which the minimal distance from $x$ to $\bracs{x_m|m \in C_N(x)}$ is achieved. Then, for each $n \in \natp$,
|
|
\begin{align*}
|
|
\bracs{k_N \le n} &= \bigcup_{j = 1}^n \bracs{x \in X \bigg | j \in C_N(x), d(x, x_j) = \min_{m \in C_N(x)}d(x, x_m)} \\
|
|
&= \bigcup_{j = 1}^n \bracs{j \in C_N} \cap \bracs{x \in X \bigg | d(x, x_j) = \min_{m \in C_N(x)}d(x, x_m)} \\
|
|
&= \bigcup_{j = 1}^n\bigcup_{J \subset [N]} \bracs{j \in C_N, J = C_N} \cap \bracs{x \in X \bigg | d(x, x_j) = \min_{m \in J}d(x, x_m)}
|
|
\end{align*}
|
|
|
|
Given that $\mathcal{A}$ is Borel measurable, $\bracs{n \in C_N} = \bracs{x_n \in \mathcal{A}(x)}$ is a Borel set for each $1 \le n \le N$. As a result, $\bracs{J = C_N}$ is Borel for each $J \subset [N]$. Thus $\bracs{j \in C_N, J = C_N}$ is Borel for each $1 \le j \le n$ and $J \subset [N]$.
|
|
|
|
On the other hand, for each $1 \le n \le N$, the function $x \mapsto d(x, x_n)$ is continuous and hence Borel measurable. Similarly, for each $J \subset [N]$, the mapping $\real^J \to \real$ with $\alpha \mapsto \min_{j \in J}\alpha_j$ is also Borel measurable.
|
|
|
|
|
|
The above facts combined show that $\bracs{k_N \le n}$ is a Borel set, and $k_N: X \to [N]$ is a Borel measurable function. Now, let
|
|
\[
|
|
I_N: X \to \bracsn{x_n|1 \le n \le N} \quad x \mapsto x_{k_N(x)}
|
|
\]
|
|
|
|
then for each $1 \le n \le N$, $\bracs{I_N = x_n} = \bracs{k_N = n}$ is a Borel set. Thus $I_N$ is Borel measurable.
|
|
|
|
In addition, for each $x \in X$, $k_N(x) \in C_N(x)$, so
|
|
\[
|
|
I_N(x) = x_{k_N(x)} \in \bracs{x_n|n \in C_N(x)} \subset \mathcal{A}(x)
|
|
\]
|
|
|
|
and $\seq{I_N}$ satisfies (AI2).
|
|
|
|
Finally, let $x \in X$, then by definition of $k_N$,
|
|
\[
|
|
d(x, I_N(x)) = d(x, x_{k_N(x)}) = \min\bracs{d(x, x_n)| 1 \le n \le N, x_n \in \mathcal{A}(x)}
|
|
\]
|
|
|
|
For any $\eps > 0$, since $x \in \ol{\mathcal{A}(x)^o}$, there exists $N_0 \in \natp$ such that $x_{N_0} \in \mathcal{A}(x)$ and $d(x, x_{N_0}) < \eps$. In which case, for any $N \ge N_0$, $N_0 \in C_N(x)$ and $d(x, I_N(x)) \le d(x, x_{N_0}) < \eps$. Thus $I_N(x) \to x$ as $N \to \infty$, and $\seq{I_N}$ satisfies (AI1).
|
|
|
|
Therefore $\seq{I_N}$ is an approximation of the identity satisfying (1) and (2).
|
|

|
\label{remark:separable-metric-space-approx-identity}
|
|
In \autoref{lemma:separable-metric-space-approx-identity}, if $X$ is compact and $\mathcal{A} \equiv X$, then $I_N \to I$ \textit{uniformly}.

\begin{corollary}
|
|
\label{corollary:measurable-simple-separable}
|
|
Let $(X, \cm)$ be a measurable space, $Y$ be a separable metric space, and $\mathcal{A}: Y \to 2^Y$ be a Borel measurable \hyperref[admissible approximant function]{definition:admissible-approximant-function}, then for any $f: X \to Y$, the following are equivalent:
|
|
\begin{enumerate}
|
|
\item $f$ is $(\cm, \cb_Y)$-measurable.
|
|
\item For any dense subset $\seq{y_n} \subset Y$ with $y_1 \in \bigcap_{y \in Y}\mathcal{A}(y)$, there exists a sequence $\seq{f_n}$ of $(\cm, \cb_Y)$-measurable simple functions such that
|
|
\begin{enumerate}
|
|
\item[(i)] For each $x \in X$ and $N \in \natp$,
|
|
\[
|
|
f_N(x) \in \mathcal{A}(f(x)) \cap \bracsn{y_n|1 \le n \le N}
|
|
\]
|
|
\item[(ii)] $d(f_n, f) \downto 0$ pointwise as $n \to \infty$.
|
|
\end{enumerate}
|
|
|
|
\item There exists a sequence $\seq{f_n}$ of $(\cm, \cb_Y)$-measurable simple functions such that $f_n \to f$ pointwise.
|
|
\end{enumerate}
|
|
\end{corollary}
|
|
\begin{proof}
|
|
(1) $\Rightarrow$ (2): Let $\seq{y_n} \subset Y$ be a dense subset with $y_1 \in \bigcap_{y \in Y}\mathcal{A}(y)$. By \autoref{lemma:separable-metric-space-approx-identity}, there exists $\seq{I_n} \subset Y^Y$ such that:
|
|
\begin{enumerate}
|
|
\item $\seq{I_n}$ is an $\mathcal{A}$-admissible \hyperref[approximation of the identity]{definition:approximation-id-measure}.
|
|
\item For each $N \in \natp$, $I_N$ is Borel measurable with $I_N(Y) \subset \bracsn{y_n|1 \le n \le N}$.
|
|
\end{enumerate}
|
|
|
|
For each $n \in \natp$, let $f_n = I_N \circ f_n$, then:
|
|
\begin{enumerate}
|
|
\item[(i)] For each $x \in X$ and $N \in \natp$,
|
|
\[
|
|
f_N(x) = I_N(f(x)) \in \mathcal{A}(f(x)) \cap \bracsn{y_n|1 \le n \le N}
|
|
\]
|
|
\item[(ii)] Since $I_n \to \text{Id}$ pointwise as $n \to \infty$, $f_n \to f$ pointwise as $n \to \infty$.
|
|
\end{enumerate}
|
|
|
|
(3) $\Rightarrow$ (1): By \autoref{proposition:metric-measurable-limit}.
|
|
\end{proof}
|
|
|
|
\begin{corollary}
|
|
\label{corollary:measurable-simple-separable-norm}
|
|
Let $(X, \cm)$ be a measurable space, $(E, \norm{\cdot}_E)$ be a separable normed vector space, and $f: X \to E$, then the following are equivalent:
|
|
\begin{enumerate}
|
|
\item $f$ is $(\cm, \cb_E)$-measurable.
|
|
\item There exists simple functions $\seq{f_n}$ such that $\abs{f_n} \le \abs{f}$ for all $n \in \natp$, and $f_n \to f$ pointwise.
|
|
\end{enumerate}
|
|
\end{corollary}
|
|
\begin{proof}
|
|
(1) $\Rightarrow$ (2): Let
|
|
\[
|
|
\mathcal{A}: E \to 2^E \quad y \mapsto \begin{cases}
|
|
B_E(0, \norm{y}_E) & y \ne 0 \\
|
|
E & y = 0
|
|
\end{cases}
|
|
\]
|
|
|
|
then
|
|
\begin{enumerate}
|
|
\item[(AA1)] For each $y \in E$, $y \in \ol{\mathcal{A}(y)^o}$.
|
|
\item[(AA2)] $0 \in \bigcap_{y \in E}\mathcal{A}(y)$.
|
|
\item[(B)] For any fixed $y_0 \in E \setminus \bracs{0}$,
|
|
\[
|
|
\bracs{y \in E|y_0 \in \mathcal{A}(y)} = \bracs{y \in E|\norm{y_0}_E < \norm{y}_E} \cup \bracs{0} \in \cb_E
|
|
\]
|
|
|
|
and $\bracs{y \in E|0 \in \mathcal{A}(y)} = E$.
|
|
\end{enumerate}
|
|
|
|
so $\mathcal{A}$ is a Borel measurable \hyperref[admissible approximant function]{definition:admissible-approximant-function}.
|
|
|
|
By (2) of \autoref{corollary:measurable-simple-separable}, there exists simple functions $\seq{f_n}$ such that $|f_n| \le |f|$ on $\bracs{f \ne 0}$ for all $n \in \natp$ and $f_n \to f$ pointwise. In which case, $|\one_{\bracs{f \ne 0}}f_n| \le |f|$ globally for all $n \in \natp$ and $\one_{\bracs{f \ne 0}}f_n \to f$ pointwise as $n \to \infty$.
|
|
|
|
(2) $\Rightarrow$ (1): By \autoref{proposition:metric-measurable-limit}.
|
|
\end{proof}
