	Haar measure - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-18)
		In mathematical analysis, the Haar measure is a way to assign an "invariant volume" to subsets of locally compact topological groups and subsequently define an integral for functions on those groups.
		A frequently used technique for proving the existence of a Haar measure on a locally compact group G is showing the existence of a left invariant Radon measure on G.
		The Haar measure on the topological group (R, +) which takes the value 1 on the interval [0,1] is equal to the restriction of Lebesgue measure to the Borel subsets of R.

		Borel was born in St-Affrique and studied in Paris.
		In the 1890s Borel did his most important work: on probability, the infinitesimal calculus, divergent series, and, most influential of all, the theory of measure.
		Borel's theory of integral functions and his analysis of measure theory and divergent series established him, alongside French mathematician Henri Lebesgue, as one of the founders of the theory of functions of real variables.

	Lebesgue measure - Wikipedia
		The Lebesgue measure is the standard way of assigning a volume to subsets of Euclidean space.
		If A is a disjoint union of finitely many or countably many disjoint Lebesgue measurable sets, then A is itself Lebesgue measurable and λ(A) is equal to the sum (or infinite series) of the measures of the involved measurable sets.
		The Borel measure agrees with the Lebesgue measure on those sets for which it is defined; however, there are many more Lebesgue-measureable sets than there are Borel measurable sets.

		'signed' indicates that such measure is not with values in >[0,+\infty] but rather, that it is a particular case of complex >measure, with values in R >4.
		The measure has its values in R, but is the difference of two positive measures, each of which is regular.

	Search Results for Borel
		Borel formulated his theorem for countable coverings in 1895 and Schonflies and Lebesgue generalized it to any type of covering in 1900 and 1898 (published 1904), respectively.
		This result was strengthened by Borel in 1899 when he proved a lower bound for P(e), where P is a polynomial with integer coefficients, depending on the maximum modulus of the integer coefficients of P. Gelfond, Feldman's supervisor, had extended Borel's result to numbers of the form alpha beta, where alpha, beta are algebraic numbers.
		Feldman proved in his thesis Borel type results (called the measure of transcendence) for logarithms of algebraic numbers, obtaining estimates for the lower bound depending (as did Gelfond) on both the degree of P and the maximum modulus of its coefficients.

		We study the long term behavior of a random measure $\mu_t$ which is the image of a finite Borel measure $\mu_0$ under the flow.
		When $a/b$ is rational, we show that the Lebesgue measure of the support of $\mu_t$ decreases to its minimum value in finite time almost surely.
		In addition, if $\mu_0$ is proportional to Lebesgue measure we show that the number of connected components of the support of $\mu_t$ is a recurrent process, which assumes every positive integer value with probability 1.

		A measure μ on the Borel subsets of ''G'' is called ''left-translation-invariant'' if and only if, : \mu(a S) = \mu(S) \quad S \mbox{ a Borel subset of } G. A similar definition is made for right translation invariance.
		Using the general theory of Lebesgue_integration approach, one can hen define an integral for all Borel measurable functions ''f'' on ''G''.
		Note that the ''left'' translate of a right Haar measure (or integral) is a Haar measure (or integral): More precisely, if μ is a right Haar measure, :f \mapsto \int_G f(t x) \ d\mu(x) is a also right invariant.
