Measure Theory Problem: $lim_{ntoinfty} n cdot mu(E_n) = 0$

$(mathbf X,M,mu)$ measure space, $f : mathbf X to [0;infty]$ a measurable function such that Integral $int_X f , dmu < infty$.



If $E_n = {x in mathbf X : n + 1 ge f(x) > n}$ then



$$lim_{ntoinfty} n cdot mu(E_n) = 0$$



I can't figure it out: I thought about the fact that $E_n$ are a partition of $X$, so I could use countable additivity there, but I don't know if $mu$ is a finite measure so I can't show any convergence. Thank you for your help!

  • How can you rewrite $E_{n}$ using $f^{-1}$ ?

    Start with $infty>int_X f,dmu =sum_{n=0}^infty int_{E_{n}}f,dmuge sum_{n=0}^inftyint_{E_{n}}n,dmu=sum_{n=1}^infty ncdotmu(E_{n})$.

  • Thank you guys! It always seems so trivial when you see the solution! Have a nice day :)

  • To conceptually connect your comment (that you don't know if $mu$ is a finite measure) to the given solutions: We do know that $$nu(E):=int_E fdmu$$ is a finite measure on $M$. Then since $(E_n)_{n=1}^infty$ are pairwise disjoint, $nu(E_n)to 0$. But $nu(E_n)geqslant nmu(E_n)$.
