Proving DCT from Fatou's Lemma












1












$begingroup$


Forgive me, I am new to measure theory.
I am trying to prove the Dominated Convergence Theorem by assuming Fatou's Lemma, here is what I have so far.



Fatou's Lemma:



Let ${f_n}
$
be a sequence of nonnegative measurable functions s.t.



$f_n rightarrow f$ a.e. x as $n rightarrow infty$,



then $int f leq $ lim$_{n rightarrow infty}$ inf $int f_n$.



The DCT states:



Let ${f_n}$ be sequence of measurable functions s.t.



$f_n rightarrow f$ a.e. x as $n rightarrow infty$,



if in addition we have



$vert f(x) vert leq g(x)$ ; $g(x)$ integrable,



then $int vert f_n - f vert rightarrow 0$, as $n rightarrow infty$.



I know one way to prove this is you can define a set of elements bounded above by integer values
so the functions are supported on a set of finite measure allowing the use of the bounded convergence theorem.



Now Fatou's Lemma takes into consideration the nonnegative functions, something I cannot assume with the DCT, but since the $f_n$ are all bounded above by an integrable function $g(x)$ could I rewrite $g(x)$ as its decomposition into $g^+ - g^-$?



My intuition says the result will "pop out" if I had non negativity? OR am I missing something else here?

$int [g-f]=int lim inf [g-f_n] leq lim inf int [g-f_n]$ which gives $int g -int f leq int g -lim sup int f_n$ so $lim sup int f_n leq int f$. Now replace $f$ by $-f$ and $f_n$ by $-f_n$ to get $lim inf int f_n geq int f$. Hence $int f_n to int f$. To get $int |f_n-f| to 0$ you simply have to replace $f$ by $0$, $g$ by $2g$ and $f_n$ by $|f_n-f|$
