SUMMARY

The discussion centers on the concept of positive measure in the context of measurable functions. Specifically, it addresses the assertion that if a measurable function k has a positive measure set where k(x) > 0, then there exists a threshold p > 0 such that the set where k(x) ≥ p also has positive measure. The participants seek clarification on the definition of positive measure and hints for solving related problems.

PREREQUISITES
  • Understanding of measurable functions
  • Familiarity with Lebesgue measure
  • Basic knowledge of set theory
  • Concept of thresholds in mathematical analysis
NEXT STEPS
  • Study the properties of Lebesgue measure in detail
  • Explore the implications of measurable functions in real analysis
  • Investigate the relationship between positive measure and thresholds in functions
  • Review examples of measurable functions with positive measure sets
USEFUL FOR

Students of real analysis, mathematicians focusing on measure theory, and anyone interested in the properties of measurable functions and their implications in mathematical contexts.

Homework Statement


Suppose that if k is a measurable function and {x : k(x) > 0} has a positive measure, then {x : k(x) >= p} has positive measure for some p > 0

Homework Equations


Lebesgue measure

The Attempt at a Solution


What is positive measure? is it just another word for measurable? Can I have some hint on how to attack this problem?

Thank you.
