Measure (mathematics) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | In mathematics, a measure is a function that assigns a number, e.g., a "size", "volume", or "probability", to subsets of a given set. |
 | | A measure can be extened to a complete one by considering the σ-algebra of subsets Y which differ by a subset of a null set from a measurable set X, that is such that the symmetric difference of X and Y is contained in a null-set. |
 | | The Haar measure for a locally compact topological group is a generalization of the Lebesgue measure and has a similar uniqueness property. |
