Vitali's convergence theorem for maps into a pseudometric space #
Let μ be a finite measure on X and let T n, T₀ : X → Y be almost-everywhere measurable
maps into a second-countable pseudometric space. Mathlib's Vitali convergence theorem
MeasureTheory.tendstoInMeasure_iff_tendsto_Lp_finite characterises Lᵖ convergence of
vector-valued functions as convergence in measure together with uniform integrability. This file
transports it to Y-valued maps through the real-valued distances: for 1 ≤ p < ∞ and maps with
finite p-th moment about a basepoint y₀, the distances dist (T n x) (T₀ x) converge to 0
in Lᵖ(μ) exactly when T n converges to T₀ in measure and the family dist (T n ·) y₀ is
uniformly integrable in Lᵖ(μ).
The uniform integrability of dist (T n ·) y₀ does not depend on the basepoint y₀: by the
triangle inequality, changing the basepoint changes each distance by at most the constant
dist y₀ y₁, and constants are uniformly integrable over a finite measure. Uniform integrability is
Mathlib's MeasureTheory.UnifIntegrable, the predicate its Vitali theorem uses. Mathlib's stronger
MeasureTheory.UniformIntegrable adds a uniform Lᵖ bound on the family. The convergence theorem
is stated with either predicate: when the Lᵖ convergence of the distances is assumed, the
convergent sequence of their finite Lᵖ norms is bounded, and this bound upgrades
MeasureTheory.UnifIntegrable to MeasureTheory.UniformIntegrable.

Two almost-everywhere measurable maps with finite p-th moment about a basepoint y₀ have a
distance with finite p-th moment.
The triangle inequality for Lᵖ norms of distances: for 1 ≤ p, a map S : X → Y and
almost-everywhere measurable maps T S' : X → Y, the Lᵖ(μ) norm of dist (T ·) (S' ·) is at
most the sum of those of dist (T ·) (S ·) and dist (S ·) (S' ·).
Uniform integrability in Lᵖ(μ) of the distances dist (T i ·) (S ·) to a reference map S
passes to any almost-everywhere measurable reference map S' with dist (S ·) (S' ·) of finite
p-th moment, for 1 ≤ p < ∞: by the triangle inequality, changing the reference map changes
each distance by at most the fixed Lᵖ function dist (S ·) (S' ·), and a single Lᵖ function
is uniformly integrable.
Uniform integrability in Lᵖ(μ) with a uniform Lᵖ bound of the distances dist (T i ·) (S ·)
to a reference map S passes to any almost-everywhere measurable reference map S' with
dist (S ·) (S' ·) of finite p-th moment, for 1 ≤ p < ∞: the uniform bound grows by the
Lᵖ norm of dist (S ·) (S' ·).
Uniform integrability in Lᵖ(μ) of the distances dist (T i ·) y₀ does not depend on the
basepoint y₀, for 1 ≤ p < ∞ and a finite measure μ: changing the basepoint changes each
distance by at most the constant dist y₀ y₁.
Uniform integrability in Lᵖ(μ) with a uniform Lᵖ bound of the distances dist (T i ·) y₀
does not depend on the basepoint y₀, for 1 ≤ p < ∞ and a finite measure μ.
Vitali's convergence theorem for maps into a pseudometric space. Let 1 ≤ p < ∞, let
μ be a finite measure, and let the almost-everywhere measurable maps T n, T₀ : X → Y have
finite p-th moment about a point y₀. Then dist (T n x) (T₀ x) tends to 0 in Lᵖ(μ) if
and only if T n converges to T₀ in μ-measure and the family dist (T n ·) y₀ is uniformly
integrable in Lᵖ(μ).

MeasureTheory.UniformIntegrable: under the hypotheses of
TauCeti.tendsto_eLpNorm_dist_iff_tendstoInMeasure_and_unifIntegrable, dist (T n x) (T₀ x)
tends to 0 in Lᵖ(μ) if and only if T n converges to T₀ in μ-measure and the family
dist (T n ·) y₀ is uniformly integrable in Lᵖ(μ) with a uniform Lᵖ bound.
