The filter of small sets #
THIS FILE IS SYNCHRONIZED WITH MATHLIB4. Any changes to this file require a corresponding PR to mathlib4.
This file defines the filter of small sets w.r.t. a filter f, which is the largest filter
containing all powersets of members of f.
g converges to f.small_sets if for all s ∈ f, eventually we have g x ⊆ s.
An example usage is that if f : ι → E → ℝ is a family of nonnegative functions with integral 1,
then saying that λ i, support (f i) tendsto (𝓝 0).small_sets is a way of saying that
f tends to the Dirac delta distribution.
The filter l.small_sets is the largest filter containing all powersets of members of l.
Equations
- l.small_sets = l.lift' set.powerset
Instances for filter.small_sets
Generalized squeeze theorem (also known as sandwich theorem). If s : α → set β is a
family of sets that tends to filter.small_sets lb along la and f : α → β is a function such
that f x ∈ s x eventually along la, then f tends to lb along la.
If s x is the closed interval [g x, h x] for some functions g, h that tend to the same limit
𝓝 y, then we obtain the standard squeeze theorem, see
tendsto_of_tendsto_of_tendsto_of_le_of_le'.
