Left translation on Lᵖ of a group #
Let μ be a left-invariant measure on a group G. Left translation of functions,
(L_g f)(x) = f (g⁻¹ * x), L_g L_h = L_(g * h),
preserves Lᵖ classes and norms, so it gives a group homomorphism
MeasureTheory.Lp.leftTranslation μ p 𝕜 : G →* (Lp E p μ ≃ₗᵢ[𝕜] Lp E p μ). It is the
action of DomMulAct.mk g⁻¹ from Mathlib's DomMulAct action on Lp, reindexed so that it is
a left action of G itself. For p < ∞ and a locally finite measure that is inner regular for
compact sets, such as a regular Haar measure, Mathlib's continuity of that action makes left
translation strongly continuous.
For real-valued functions, left translation is an order automorphism, preserves integrals and
fixes the constant class one of L∞. The class of the left translate of a bounded continuous
function is the left translate of its class, so BoundedContinuousFunction.toLpTop is
equivariant. These are the translation-invariance properties needed to compare invariant means
on bounded uniformly continuous functions with invariant means on L∞ of a Haar measure.

Instances For
Left translation by g is the DomMulAct action of g⁻¹.
The left translate L_g f is almost everywhere the function x ↦ f (g⁻¹ * x).
The inverse of left translation by g is left translation by g⁻¹.
Left translation is monotone on real Lᵖ.
Left translation is an order automorphism of real Lᵖ.
Left translation fixes the constant class one of L∞.
Left translation preserves the integral of an Lᵖ class, since μ is left invariant.
The class in L∞ of the left translate x ↦ f (g⁻¹ * x) of a bounded continuous function
is the left translate of its class.
For p < ∞, left translation on Lᵖ is strongly continuous: g ↦ L_g f is continuous for
every f, when μ is locally finite and inner regular for compact sets, as a regular Haar
measure is.
