[math]\newcommand{\bigudot}{ \mathchoice{\mathop{\bigcup\mkern-15mu\cdot\mkern8mu}}{\mathop{\bigcup\mkern-13mu\cdot\mkern5mu}}{\mathop{\bigcup\mkern-13mu\cdot\mkern5mu}}{\mathop{\bigcup\mkern-13mu\cdot\mkern5mu}} }[/math][math]\newcommand{\udot}{\cup\mkern-12.5mu\cdot\mkern6.25mu\!}[/math][math]\require{AMScd}\newcommand{\d}[1][]{\mathrm{d}^{#1} }[/math]

  • Finitely additive: if [ilmath]A\cap B=\emptyset[/ilmath] then [ilmath]\mu_0(A\udot B)=\mu_0(A)+\mu_0(B)[/ilmath]


Follows immediately from definition (property 2)

  • Monotonic: [Note 1] if [ilmath]A\subseteq B[/ilmath] then [ilmath]\mu_0(A)\le\mu_0(B)[/ilmath]




TODO: Be bothered to write out


  • If [ilmath]A\subseteq B[/ilmath] and [ilmath]\mu_0(A)<\infty[/ilmath] then [ilmath]\mu_0(B-A)=\mu_0(B)-\mu(A)[/ilmath]




TODO: Be bothered, note the significance of the finite-ness of [ilmath]A[/ilmath] - see Extended real value


  • Strongly additive: [ilmath]\mu_0(A\cup B)=\mu_0(A)+\mu_0(B)-\mu_0(A\cap B)[/ilmath]




TODO: Be bothered


  • Subadditive: [ilmath]\mu_0(A\cup B)\le\mu_0(A)+\mu_0(B)[/ilmath]




TODO: Again - be bothered


Notes

  1. Sometimes stated as monotone (it is monotone in Measures, Integrals and Martingales in fact!)
