Defines a density point of an arbitrary subset of Euclidean space, using Lebesgue outer measure so that no measurability of the set is required.

Statement

We work in the setting of Euclidean Space and Lebesgue Measure: Standing Notation, whose notation is fixed for every dimension and is used here with a natural number nn satisfying 1n1\le n: the Euclidean norm, distance and closed balls Bˉ(x,r)\bar{B}(x,r) of Rn\mathbb{R}^{n}, the Borel σ\sigma-algebra B(Rn)\mathcal{B}(\mathbb{R}^{n}), and Lebesgue measure λn\lambda_{n} are as fixed there. Write λn\lambda_{n}^{\ast} for Lebesgue outer measure, which is defined on every subset of Rn\mathbb{R}^{n}. For every xRnx\in\mathbb{R}^{n} and every rRr\in\mathbb{R} with 0<r0<r the closed ball Bˉ(x,r)\bar{B}(x,r) belongs to B(Rn)\mathcal{B}(\mathbb{R}^{n}) by The Lebesgue Measure of a Closed Ball in Rn\mathbb{R}^n §borel, so the real number λn(Bˉ(x,r))\lambda_{n}(\bar{B}(x,r)) appearing below is defined.

Let ERnE\subseteq\mathbb{R}^{n} be an arbitrary subset and let xRnx\in\mathbb{R}^{n}.

Definition. The point xx is a density point of EE if for every αR\alpha\in\mathbb{R} with α<1\alpha<1 there is ρR\rho\in\mathbb{R} with 0<ρ0<\rho such that

αλn(Bˉ(x,r))λn(EBˉ(x,r))for every rR with 0<r<ρ.\alpha\,\lambda_{n}\bigl(\bar{B}(x,r)\bigr)\le\lambda_{n}^{\ast}\bigl(E\cap\bar{B}(x,r)\bigr)\qquad\text{for every }r\in\mathbb{R}\text{ with }0<r<\rho .
