TauCeti.MeasureTheory.Integral.Lebesgue.BiUnion

Lebesgue integrals over a union #

The Lebesgue integral over the union of finitely many sets is at most the sum of the integrals over the sets, without any disjointness or measurability assumption. This is the finite form of MeasureTheory.lintegral_iUnion_le, and the subadditive counterpart of MeasureTheory.lintegral_biUnion_finset. It is how a local estimate on finitely many open sets covering a compact space becomes a global one.
