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
