Spatial slices of a measure on ℝ≥0 × V #
The Berg--Christensen--Ressel representation writes a bounded continuous positive-definite
function on the involutive semigroup ℝ≥0 × V as the Laplace--Fourier transform
F (t, a) = ∫ (p, q), exp (-t p) * exp (-2πi⟪a, q⟫) ∂μ
of a finite measure μ on ℝ≥0 × V. Freezing the time variable at t leaves a spatial
representation: weighting μ by the Laplace factor exp (-t p) and forgetting the time
coordinate produces a finite measure on V whose Fourier-convention transform is the time
slice F (t, ·). This file develops that slicing operation, TauCeti.spatialSlice, and the
companion time marginal of a slab ℝ≥0 × B.
The two structural results are the necessary conditions a representing measure satisfies, each phrased against the representation theorem it consumes:
- by Bochner's theorem on
V, each spatial slice of a representing measure is the Bochner measure of the corresponding time slice ofF, and conversely a finite measure whose spatial slices are those Bochner measures representsF(TauCeti.representsLaplaceFourier_iff_forall_spatialSlice_eq); - the mass a spatial slice assigns to a fixed measurable set is, as a function of the time,
the Laplace transform of a finite measure on
ℝ≥0(TauCeti.representsLaplace_timeMarginal).
Together they say what a representing measure has to look like: its slices are prescribed by
Bochner's theorem, and the resulting set functions t ↦ μ_t B are Laplace transforms. The
existence half of the Berg--Christensen--Ressel theorem has to reverse both implications, and
the criterion above is what it discharges last.

The spatial slices and the time marginals #
The spatial slice of a measure on ℝ≥0 × V at time t: weight by the Laplace factor
exp (-t p), then forget the time coordinate. Its characteristic function is the
Laplace--Fourier transform at time t, up to the -2π Fourier rescaling
(TauCeti.charFun_spatialSlice).
Equations

Instances For
A spatial slice of a finite measure is finite: the Laplace weight is at most 1.
The measure a spatial slice assigns to a measurable set is the Laplace-weighted mass of the corresponding slab.
The mass of a measurable set under a spatial slice, as a Bochner integral over the slab.
The real-valued mass of a measurable set under a spatial slice.
At time 0 the Laplace weight is trivial, so the spatial slice is the spatial marginal.
Every spatial slice of the zero measure is the zero measure.
The spatial slices decrease in time: the Laplace weight exp (-t p) is nonincreasing
in t at every frequency p ≥ 0.
Every spatial slice is dominated by the spatial marginal.
The time marginal of the slab ℝ≥0 × B, as a measure on ℝ≥0. It is the measure whose
Laplace transform records the masses t ↦ (spatialSlice μ t).real B
(TauCeti.representsLaplace_timeMarginal).
Instances For
A time marginal of a finite measure is finite.
Integrating the Laplace kernel against a time marginal integrates it over the slab.
A time marginal evaluates to the mass of the corresponding rectangle.
The slab masses of the spatial slices are Laplace transforms. For a measurable B ⊆ V,
the function t ↦ (spatialSlice μ t).real B on [0, ∞) is the Laplace transform of the finite
measure timeMarginal μ B on ℝ≥0. This is the time-direction necessary condition on a
Berg--Christensen--Ressel representing measure.
A finite measure on ℝ≥0 × V is determined by its spatial slices. Testing a slice
against a measurable set B leaves the Laplace transform of the finite time marginal of the
slab ℝ≥0 × B (TauCeti.representsLaplace_timeMarginal), and Laplace determinacy pins that
marginal down; measurable rectangles then form a π-system generating the product σ-algebra.
Together with TauCeti.representsLaplaceFourier_iff_forall_spatialSlice_eq, this reduces the
Berg--Christensen--Ressel representation to the prescribed-slices problem: the representing
measure is the unique finite measure whose spatial slices are the Bochner measures of the time
slices.
Integration against a spatial slice #
Integration against a spatial slice reinstates the Laplace weight.
The Fourier-convention transform of a spatial slice is the Laplace--Fourier transform.
Freezing the time variable at t turns the two-variable transform into the spatial transform
of the slice at t.
The characteristic function of a spatial slice is the Laplace--Fourier transform, after the
-2π rescaling that converts Mathlib's Fourier convention into the characteristic-function
convention.
The spatial slices of a representing measure #
The spatial slices of a Berg--Christensen--Ressel representing measure are the Bochner
measures of the time slices. Bochner's theorem on V has a unique representing measure, and
the spatial slice at t represents the time slice F (t, ·), so the two coincide.
The converse. A finite measure whose spatial slices are the Bochner measures of the
continuous positive-definite time slices of F represents F. Positive definiteness and
continuity enter through Bochner's theorem, which is what makes those Bochner measures represent
the slices.
The slice criterion for the Berg--Christensen--Ressel representation. A finite measure
on ℝ≥0 × V represents F by its Laplace--Fourier transform if and only if each of its spatial
slices is the Bochner measure of the corresponding continuous positive-definite time slice of
F. The existence half of the representation theorem is exactly the problem of producing a
finite measure with these prescribed slices.
The total mass of the spatial slice at t is the value of F on the time axis.
The Bochner measures of the time slices have Laplace-transform masses. Reading
TauCeti.representsLaplace_timeMarginal through the identification of the spatial slices with
the Bochner measures: for a represented F and a measurable B ⊆ V, the mass that the Bochner
measure of the time slice F (t, ·) assigns to B is, as a function of t, the Laplace
transform of a finite measure on ℝ≥0.
