Measure Theory On Time Scales
Associated with every time scale is a natural measure defined via
where denotes Lebesgue measure and is the backward shift operator defined on . The delta integral turns out to be the usual Lebesgue–Stieltjes integral with respect to this measure
and the delta derivative turns out to be the Radon–Nikodym derivative with respect to this measure

Famous quotes containing the words measure, theory, time and/or scales:
“With us justice is the true measure of religion.”
—Marcus Minucius Felix (2nd or 3rd cen. A.D.)
“Everything to which we concede existence is a posit from the standpoint of a description of the theory-building process, and simultaneously real from the standpoint of the theory that is being built. Nor let us look down on the standpoint of the theory as make-believe; for we can never do better than occupy the standpoint of some theory or other, the best we can muster at the time.”
—Willard Van Orman Quine (b. 1908)
“In such a time as this it is not meet
That every nice offence should bear his comment.”
—William Shakespeare (15641616)
“For these have governed in our lives,
And see how men have warred.
The Cross, the Crown, the Scales may all
As well have been the Sword.”
—Robert Frost (18741963)
