Kakutani's theorem (measure theory)

In measure theory, a branch of mathematics, Kakutani's theorem is a fundamental result on the equivalence or mutual singularity of countable product measures. It gives an "if and only if" characterisation of when two such measures are equivalent, and hence it is extremely useful when trying to establish change-of-measure formulae for measures on function spaces. The result is due to the Japanese mathematician Shizuo Kakutani. Kakutani's theorem can be used, for example, to determine whether a translate of a Gaussian measure is equivalent to (only when the translation vector lies in the Cameron–Martin space of ), or whether a dilation of is equivalent to (only when the absolute value of the dilation factor is 1, which is part of the Feldman–Hájek theorem).

Joe Neeman: Gaussian isoperimetry and related topics II

The Gaussian isoperimetric inequality gives a sharp lower bound on the Gaussian surface area of any set in terms of its Gaussian measure. Its dimension-independent nature makes it a powerful tool for proving concentration inequalities in high dimensions. We will explore several consequence

Yakov Sinai: Now everything has been started? The origin of deterministic chaos

Abstract: The theory of deterministic chaos studies statistical properties of solutions of non-linear equations and has many applications. The appearance of these properties is connected with intrinsic instability of dynamics. This lecture was held by Abel Laureate Yakov Grigorevich Sina

What is the max and min of a horizontal line on a closed interval

👉 Learn how to find the extreme values of a function using the extreme value theorem. The extreme values of a function are the points/intervals where the graph is decreasing, increasing, or has an inflection point. A theorem which guarantees the existence of the maximum and minimum points
