Uniqueness of the conditional expectation #

Two Lp functions f, g which are almost everywhere strongly measurable with respect to a σ-algebra
m and verify ∫ x in s, f x ∂μ = ∫ x in s, g x ∂μ for all m-measurable sets s are equal
almost everywhere. This proves the uniqueness of the conditional expectation, which is not yet
defined in this file but is introduced in measure_theory.function.conditional_expectation.basic.

Uniqueness of the conditional expectation
Let m be a sub-σ-algebra of m0, f a m0-measurable function and g a m-measurable
function, such that their integrals coincide on m-measurable sets with finite measure.
Then ∫ x in s, ‖g x‖ ∂μ ≤ ∫ x in s, ‖f x‖ ∂μ on all m-measurable sets with finite measure.
