Lebesgue's dominated convergence theorem states that if is a sequence of measurable
functions
or
on a measure space
with a positive measure
,
is measurable,
converges pointwise to
almost everywhere as
,
and
almost everywhere
for all
, where
is a nonnegative Lebesgue
integrable function, then
is Lebesgue integrable,
and
(Hunter 2011, pp. 49-50).
If the measure is not a complete measure, an almost everywhere limit of measurable functions need not be measurable.
