  Almost - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The set of prime numbers is not almost N because there are infinitely many natural numbers that are not prime numbers.
This is conceptually similar to the almost everywhere concept of measure theory, but is not the same.
So a real number in (0, 1) is a member of the complement of the Cantor set almost everywhere, but it is not true that the complement of the Cantor set is almost the real numbers in (0, 1).

 Almost everywhere - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
In measure theory (a branch of mathematical analysis), one says that a property holds almost everywhere if the set of elements for which the property does not hold is a null set, i.e.
Occasionally, instead of saying that a property holds almost everywhere, one also says that the property holds for almost all elements, though the term almost all also has other meanings.
In probability theory, the phrases become almost surely, almost certain or almost always, corresponding to a probability of 1.

In measure theory (a branch of mathematical analysis), one says that a property holds almost everywhere if the set of elements for which the property does not is a subset of some null set.
If f : R → R is a Lebesgue integrable function and f(x) ≥ 0 almost everywhere, then ∫ f(x) dx ≥ 0.
If f : [a, b] → R is a monotonic function, then f is differentiable almost everywhere.

Thus, almost everywhere convergence leads, at least on a space of finite measure, to convergence in measure.
There is a concept in the literature (and which I used in my own thesis in 1969, when I wasn't able to FIND it in the literature) of "compactness in the topology of convergence in measure".

 Almost Everywhere Domination
In this paper we raise the problem of characterizing the Turing degrees which are almost everywhere dominating.
Again, if A is almost everywhere uniformly strongly dominating, then A is uniformly almost everywhere strongly dominating, and all of these notions depend only on the Turing degree of A.
In this section we exhibit a relationship between almost everywhere domination and the reverse mathematics of measure theory.

 Prevalence: a Translation-Invariant ``Almost Every'' on Infinite-Dimensional Spaces   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-07)
We present a measure-theoretic condition for a property to hold ``almost everywhere'' on an infinite-dimensional vector space, with particular emphasis on function spaces such as $C^k$ and $L^p$.
Prevalence is a more appropriate condition than the topological concepts of ``open and dense'' or ``generic'' when one desires a probabilistic result on the likelihood of a given property on a function space.
For instance, we prove that almost every $C^1$ map on $\reals^n$ has the property that all of its periodic orbits are hyperbolic.

For a number of years, her mathematical interests centered on measure theory and, specifically, on problems connected with the notion of lifting of an L infinity space and applications of that concept.
"The problem of almost everywhere convergence has always been close to my heart, and I returned to it time and again," she notes.
In her Noether Lecture, Bellow chose to illustrate the ergodic point of view with several problems of almost everywhere convergence, such as moving averages, Riemann sums, and so on.

 The Three-Dimensional Gauss Algorithm is Strongly Convergent Almost Everywhere, D. M. Hardcastle
A proof that the three-dimensional Gauss algorithm is strongly convergent almost everywhere is given.
This algorithm is equivalent to Brun's algorithm and to the modified Jacobi-Perron algorithm considered by Podsypanin and Schweiger.
To the best of my knowledge, this is the first proof of almost everywhere strong convergence of a Jacobi-Perron type algorithm in dimension greater than two.

Such natural and intuitive behavior of threshold estimators is expected, yet this result does not translate to the Fourier expansions.
In this paper we show that almost everywhere convergence of shrinkage estimators holds for a range of shrinkage rules, not necessarily thresholding, subject to some mild technical conditions.
