Continuity of the area functional on NRR.ConvexSubbody #
The real-valued area functional ConvexSubbody.area is continuous for the Hausdorff-metric
topology on the fixed-parent hyperspace ConvexSubbody K. The argument proceeds through
almost-everywhere convergence of the 0/1 carrier indicators and the dominated-convergence
theorem, with the constant parent indicator as an integrable dominating function.
ConvexSubbody.tendsto_indicator_ae— off the (null) frontier of the limit body, the carrier indicators converge pointwise; this holds almost everywhere.ConvexSubbody.tendsto_area— filter-level convergence of the areas along any convergent family of subbodies.ConvexSubbody.continuous_area— the area functional is continuous.
The carrier of a subbody is measurable (it is compact, hence closed).
Area as an indicator integral. The area of a subbody equals the Lebesgue integral of the
0/1 indicator of its carrier.
The constant parent indicator dominates every subbody indicator pointwise.
The parent indicator is integrable (the parent has finite volume).
Continuity at a point of the area functional, via dominated convergence with the parent indicator as dominating function.
Filter-level area convergence. Along any Hausdorff-convergent family of subbodies, the areas converge.
