Overview

Lebesgue Integration on Euclidean Space contains a concrete, intuitive, and patient derivation of Lebesgue measure and integration on Rn. Throughout the text, many exercises are incorporated, enabling students to apply new ideas immediately.  Jones strives to present a slow introduction to Lebesgue integration by dealing with n-dimensional spaces from the outset.  In addition, the text provides students a thorough treatment of Fourier analysis, while holistically preparing students to become "workers" in real analysis.

ShowKey Features

Present a slow introduction to Lebesgue integration.
Deals with n-dimensional spaces from the outset.

  • The treatment of integration developed by Henri Lebesgue almost a century ago rendered previous theories obsolete and has yet to be replaced by a better one. The author presents an extended introduction to Lebesgue integration, deals with n-dimensional space from the outset, and provides a thorough treatment of Fourier analysis. Other topics include Lebesgue measure, invariance, Cantor sets, algebras of sets and measurable functions, the gamma function, convolutions, and products of abstract measures.
