Invariant measurable representatives #
Within the ambient-almost-everywhere strongly measurable real-valued functions, this file identifies almost-everywhere invariance under a nonsingular endomorphism with almost-everywhere strong measurability for Mathlib's invariant σ-algebra.
The nontrivial direction replaces an almost invariant real-valued function by a pointwise
invariant representative. For an ambient-measurable representative g, the replacement is the
real part of
limsup (fun n => g (T^[n] ω)).
Dropping the first term does not change this limsup, so the replacement is pointwise invariant.
Nonsingularity transports the original a.e. invariance along every iterate, making the replacement
a.e. equal to g.
Main results #
aestronglyMeasurable_invariants_of_comp_ae_eq— an ambient-a.e. strongly measurable, a.e. invariant function has an invariant measurable representative;aestronglyMeasurable_invariants_iff_comp_ae_eq— the characteristic equivalence;fixedSpace_eq_lpMeas_invariants— theLᵖfixed space is exactly Mathlib'slpMeassubspace for the invariant σ-algebra.
The construction and proof are adapted from
cameronfreer/exchangeability, Exchangeability/Ergodic/ShiftInvariantRepresentatives.lean and
Exchangeability/Ergodic/InvariantSigma.lean, at commit
e0532e59ceff23edab44dda9ab0655debbc9cc22. This version is generalized from the path-space shift
to an arbitrary nonsingular endomorphism at the function level (and a measure-preserving one on
Lᵖ) and uses
MeasurableSpace.invariants directly, as required by the Exchangeability roadmap.
Invariant representatives #
An ambient-almost-everywhere strongly measurable, almost-everywhere invariant real-valued function has a representative measurable for Mathlib's invariant σ-algebra.
The nonsingular endomorphism is arbitrary: path-space shift is the specialization used by the Koopman route to de Finetti's theorem.
A function almost-everywhere strongly measurable for the invariant σ-algebra is almost everywhere fixed by composition.
Within the ambient-almost-everywhere strongly measurable real-valued functions, almost-everywhere strong measurability for the invariant σ-algebra is equivalent to almost-everywhere invariance under composition.
The invariant subspace of Lᵖ #
Membership in the Lᵖ fixed space is equivalent to almost-everywhere strong measurability for
the invariant σ-algebra.
The Lᵖ fixed space of a measure-preserving endomorphism is the subspace of functions
almost-everywhere strongly measurable for its invariant σ-algebra.
