SUMMARY
The discussion focuses on demonstrating the tightness of a family of measurable functions {fn} on a measurable set E. It establishes that for every ε > 0, there exists a measurable subset E1 of E with finite measure, and a δ > 0 such that if the measure of the intersection of A and E1 is less than δ, then the integral of |fn| over A is less than ε. This definition of tightness is crucial for understanding the behavior of measurable functions in analysis.
