1: Structured Description


Here is the rules of Structured Description.

Entities:
\( (M, A, \mu)\): \(\in \{\text{ the measure spaces }\}\)
\( \mathbb{C}\): \(= \text{ the complex Euclidean topological space }\) with the Borel \(\sigma\)-algebra
\( a\): \(\in A\)
\( f\): \(: M \to \mathbb{C}\), \(\in \{\text{ the functions integrable over } a\}\)
\( \chi_a\): \(= \text{ the characteristic function of } a\)
\(*\int_a f d \mu\): \(= \int_M \chi_a Re (f) d \mu + i \int_M \chi_a Im (f) d \mu\)
//

Conditions:

2: Note


Lebesgue integral of complex function is defined only for any integrable function, while Lebesgue integral of extended real function is not so, because for example, we have not defined \(\infty + i\) or \(1 + i \infty\).
