Hausdorff measure and metric (outer) measures #
In this file we define the d-dimensional Hausdorff measure on an (extended) metric space X and the Hausdorff dimension of a set in an (extended) metric space. Let μ d δ be the maximal outer measure such that μ d δ s ≤ (EMetric.diam s) ^ d for every set of diameter less than δ. Then the Hausdorff measure μH[d] s of s is defined as ⨆ δ > 0, μ d δ s. By Caratheodory theorem MeasureTheory.OuterMeasure.IsMetric.borel_le_caratheodory, this is a Borel measure on X.
The value of μH[d], d > 0, on a set s (measurable or not) is given by
μH[d] s = ⨆ (r : ℝ≥0∞) (hr : 0 < r), ⨅ (t : ℕ → Set X) (hts : s ⊆ ⋃ n, t n) (ht : ∀ n, EMetric.diam (t n) ≤ r), ∑' n, EMetric.diam (t n) ^ d For every set s for any d < d' we have either μH[d] s = ∞ or μH[d'] s = 0, see MeasureTheory.Measure.hausdorffMeasure_zero_or_top. In Mathlib/Topology/MetricSpace/HausdorffDimension.lean we use this fact to define the Hausdorff dimension dimH of a set in an (extended) metric space.
We also define two generalizations of the Hausdorff measure. In one generalization (see MeasureTheory.Measure.mkMetric) we take any function m (diam s) instead of (diam s) ^ d. In an even more general definition (see MeasureTheory.Measure.mkMetric') we use any function of m : Set X → ℝ≥0∞. Some authors start with a partial function m defined only on some sets s : Set X (e.g., only on balls or only on measurable sets). This is equivalent to our definition applied to MeasureTheory.extend m.
We also define a predicate MeasureTheory.OuterMeasure.IsMetric which says that an outer measure is additive on metric separated pairs of sets: μ (s ∪ t) = μ s + μ t provided that ⨅ (x ∈ s) (y ∈ t), edist x y ≠ 0. This is the property required for the Caratheodory theorem MeasureTheory.OuterMeasure.IsMetric.borel_le_caratheodory, so we prove this theorem for any metric outer measure, then prove that outer measures constructed using mkMetric' are metric outer measures.
Main definitions #
MeasureTheory.OuterMeasure.IsMetric: an outer measureμis called metric ifμ (s ∪ t) = μ s + μ tfor any two metric separated setssandt. A metric outer measure in a Borel extended metric space is guaranteed to satisfy the Caratheodory condition, seeMeasureTheory.OuterMeasure.IsMetric.borel_le_caratheodory.MeasureTheory.OuterMeasure.mkMetric'and its particular caseMeasureTheory.OuterMeasure.mkMetric: a construction of an outer measure that is guaranteed to be metric. Both constructions are generalizations of the Hausdorff measure. The same measures interpreted as Borel measures are calledMeasureTheory.Measure.mkMetric'andMeasureTheory.Measure.mkMetric.MeasureTheory.Measure.hausdorffMeasurea.k.a.μH[d]: thed-dimensional Hausdorff measure. There are many definitions of the Hausdorff measure that differ from each other by a multiplicative constant. We putμH[d] s = ⨆ r > 0, ⨅ (t : ℕ → Set X) (hts : s ⊆ ⋃ n, t n) (ht : ∀ n, EMetric.diam (t n) ≤ r), ∑' n, ⨆ (ht : ¬Set.Subsingleton (t n)), (EMetric.diam (t n)) ^ d, seeMeasureTheory.Measure.hausdorffMeasure_apply. In the most interesting case0 < done can omit the⨆ (ht : ¬Set.Subsingleton (t n))part.
Main statements #
Basic properties #
MeasureTheory.OuterMeasure.IsMetric.borel_le_caratheodory: ifμis a metric outer measure on an extended metric spaceX(that is, it is additive on pairs of metric separated sets), then every Borel set is Caratheodory measurable (hence,μdefines an actualMeasureTheory.Measure). See alsoMeasureTheory.Measure.mkMetric.MeasureTheory.Measure.hausdorffMeasure_mono:μH[d] sis an antitone function ofd.MeasureTheory.Measure.hausdorffMeasure_zero_or_top: ifd₁ < d₂, then for anys, eitherμH[d₂] s = 0orμH[d₁] s = ∞. Together with the previous lemma, this means thatμH[d] sis equal to infinity on some ray(-∞, D)and is equal to zero on(D, +∞), whereDis a possibly infinite number called the Hausdorff dimension ofs;μH[D] scan be zero, infinity, or anything in between.MeasureTheory.Measure.noAtoms_hausdorff: Hausdorff measure has no atoms.
Hausdorff measure in ℝⁿ #
MeasureTheory.hausdorffMeasure_pi_real: for a nonemptyι,μH[card ι]onι → ℝequals Lebesgue measure.
Notation #
We use the following notation localized in MeasureTheory.
μH[d]:MeasureTheory.Measure.hausdorffMeasure d
Implementation notes #
There are a few similar constructions called the d-dimensional Hausdorff measure. E.g., some sources only allow coverings by balls and use r ^ d instead of (diam s) ^ d. While these construction lead to different Hausdorff measures, they lead to the same notion of the Hausdorff dimension.

Metric outer measures #
In this section we define metric outer measures and prove Caratheodory theorem: a metric outer measure has the Caratheodory property.
We say that an outer measure μ in an (e)metric space is metric if μ (s ∪ t) = μ s + μ t for any two metric separated sets s, t.
Instances For
A metric outer measure is additive on a finite set of pairwise metric separated sets.
Caratheodory theorem. If m is a metric outer measure, then every Borel measurable set t is Caratheodory measurable: for any (not necessarily measurable) set s we have μ (s ∩ t) + μ (s \ t) = μ s.
Constructors of metric outer measures #
In this section we provide constructors MeasureTheory.OuterMeasure.mkMetric' and MeasureTheory.OuterMeasure.mkMetric and prove that these outer measures are metric outer measures. We also prove basic lemmas about map/comap of these measures.

If m₁ d ≤ m₂ d for d < ε for some ε > 0 (we use ≤ᶠ[𝓝[≥] 0] to state this), then mkMetric m₁ hm₁ ≤ mkMetric m₂ hm₂.
Metric measures #
In this section we use MeasureTheory.OuterMeasure.toMeasure and theorems about MeasureTheory.OuterMeasure.mkMetric'/MeasureTheory.OuterMeasure.mkMetric to define MeasureTheory.Measure.mkMetric'/MeasureTheory.Measure.mkMetric. We also restate some lemmas about metric outer measures for metric measures.
Given a function m : Set X → ℝ≥0∞, mkMetric' m is the supremum of μ r over r > 0, where μ r is the maximal outer measure μ such that μ s ≤ m s for all s. While each μ r is an outer measure, the supremum is a measure.

If d₁ < d₂, then for any set s we have either μH[d₂] s = 0, or μH[d₁] s = ∞.
Hausdorff measure μH[d] s is monotone in d.
Hausdorff measure, Hausdorff dimension, and Hölder or Lipschitz continuous maps #
If f : X → Y is Hölder continuous on s with a positive exponent r, then μH[d] (f '' s) ≤ C ^ d * μH[r * d] s.
If f : X → Y is K-Lipschitz on s, then μH[d] (f '' s) ≤ K ^ d * μH[d] s.
If f is a K-Lipschitz map, then it increases the Hausdorff d-measures of sets at most by the factor of K ^ d.

TODO: prove Measure.map (AffineMap.homothety x c) μH[d] = ‖c‖₊⁻¹ ^ d • μH[d], which needs a more general version of AffineMap.homothety_continuous.
