The Support of a Borel Measure is Closed, and Carries Full Measure on a Separable Space
lemmaAnalysislem:support-closed-full-measure-metric-2026aThe support of a Borel measure on a metric space is closed, and on a separable space its complement is null.
Let be a metric space, let be the collection of subsets of that are open in , which is a topology on by Metric Open Sets Form a Topology, and let be the Borel -algebra of . Let be a Borel measure on and let be its support. Then the following hold.
1. (The support is closed)¶ The set belongs to . Consequently is closed in and belongs to , a -algebra containing the complement of each of its members by Sigma-Algebra and Measurable Space, so that and are defined.
2. (Full measure on a separable space)¶ If is separable, then
