In mathematics, a measure is a function that assigns a number, e.g., a "size", "volume", or "probability", to subsets of a given set.
Measure theory is that branch of real analysis which investigates σ-algebras, measures, measurable functions and integrals.
The Haar measure for a locally compact topological group is a generalization of the Lebesgue measure and has a similar uniqueness property.

Boundary functions for functions defined in a disk.
The author proves several theorems on boundary functions in the following four cases: (1) f(z) a homeomorphism of D onto D, (2) f(z) a continuous function, (3) f(z) a Baire function and (4) f(z) a measurable function.
In the cases of Baire functions and measurable functions, for the sake of convenience consider the open upper half-plane D

EP function management has continued to place emphasis on the EPCRS programs, and the EPCRS continues to be the centerpiece of their efforts to maximize voluntary compliance, as stated in their FY 2003 Annual Work Plan.
Management’s Response:  EP function management does not believe use of formal surveys is a feasible alternative in measuring the use of the SCP and establishing participation goals for this program.
Management’s Response:  EP function management does not believe that the incidence of plan errors can be predicted and does not want to create a situation in which the establishment of program goals may affect either the examination selection process or the outcome of any case.

 T.J. Kaczynski: Boundary functions
Next, we prove that a boundary function for a continuous function can always be made into a function of Baire class 1 by changing its values on a countable set of points.
Conversely, we show that if t is a function mapping a set E (X into the Riemann sphere, and if t can be made into a function of Baire class 1 by changing its values on a countable set, then there exists a continuous function in H having t as a boundary function.
(This is a slight generalization of a theorem of Bagemihl and Piranian.) In the second chapter we prove that a boundary function for a function of Baire class e > 1 in H is of Baire class at most e + 1.

The distribution function of a continuous distribution is a continuous function.
A distribution is absolutely continuous with respect to Lebesgue measure if and only if the corresponding distribution function is absolutely continuous (as a function of a real variable).

 Grace Chisholm Young Proceedings Abstract
In this theorem no restriction whatever is laid on the primitive function, except tacitly that it is everywhere finite, and the derivates may be ordinary or taken with respect to any monotone increasing function g(x) without constant stretches.
I propose now to enunciate and prove three fundamental theorems, already known to be true for special classes of functions, concerning the derivates of a function f(x), which, if not perfectly general, is nevertheless, for mathematical purposes, practically unrestricted in character.
Each of these cases may occur at points of a set of any content, as is shown by examples, and all three cases may present themselves simultaneously for a single function f(x), or one or more of the cases may be altogether absent.

 [No title]
Then the $f_n$ are measurable, and they converge to zero, but the sequence of their integrals does not converge to a limit.
If a measurable function is real-valued, and is not of constant sign, we split the function into its ``positive'' and ``negative'' parts first, and find the integral of each part.
In the case of complex-valued functions, this means that {\sl four\/} integrals have to be finite: the integrals of the positive and negative parts of the real part of the function, and the integrals of the positive and negative parts of the imaginary part of the function.

 Integration
The Lebesgue integral, (3.3), uses approximation by functions constant on possibly quite nasty measurable sets, not just intervals as in the Riemann lower and upper integrals.
One of the objects we wish to study is the space of integrable functions.
