Every square-integrable vector field against a probability measure on Euclidean space is approximated in mean square, to any accuracy, by a bounded Lipschitz vector field.

Statement

In the setting of Square-Integrable Vector Fields Against a Probability Measure on Euclidean Space, and Test Functions: Standing Notation, let μ\mu belong to the set P(Rd)\mathcal{P}(\mathbb{R}^{d}) of probability measures on Rd\mathbb{R}^{d}, and let L2(μ;Rd)L^{2}(\mu;\mathbb{R}^{d}) be the space of square-integrable vector fields against μ\mu, with norm μ\lVert\cdot\rVert_{\mu}.

Call a map ζ:RdRd\zeta:\mathbb{R}^{d}\to\mathbb{R}^{d} bounded Lipschitz if it is Lipschitz with a constant from (Rd,dE)(\mathbb{R}^{d},d_{E}) to (Rd,dE)(\mathbb{R}^{d},d_{E}) and there is a real number M0M\ge0 with ζ(x)M\lVert\zeta(x)\rVert\le M for every xRdx\in\mathbb{R}^{d}. Such a ζ\zeta is continuous and hence Borel; the function xζ(x)2x\mapsto\lVert\zeta(x)\rVert^{2} is Borel by Pairs of Euclidean Points: Coordinate Projections, Pairings, the Product Measure on a Euclidean Space, Borel Norm Functions and Finite Sets §functions and bounded by M2M^{2}, so Rdζ2dμM2<\int_{\mathbb{R}^{d}}\lVert\zeta\rVert^{2}\,d\mu\le M^{2}<\infty by claim 6 of Borel Measurability and Bounded Integration on a Metric Space, and the class of ζ\zeta belongs to L2(μ;Rd)L^{2}(\mu;\mathbb{R}^{d}) and is again written ζ\zeta.

1. (Density) Let ξL2(μ;Rd)\xi\in L^{2}(\mu;\mathbb{R}^{d}) and let ε\varepsilon be a positive real number. Then there is a bounded Lipschitz map ζ:RdRd\zeta:\mathbb{R}^{d}\to\mathbb{R}^{d} with

ξζμε.\lVert\xi-\zeta\rVert_{\mu}\le\varepsilon .
