Let denote a measure space and let for . The sequence converges to in measure if for any [1].

Further, the sequence is Cauchy in measure if for every as [1]


Properties

  • If in measure and in measure, then in measure [2]
  • If in measure and in measure, then in measure [2]

Relation to other types of Convergence

  • If in then in measure [1]
  • If in measure, then there exists a subsequence such that almost everywhere.[1]
