Time-scale Calculus - Measure Theory On Time Scales

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:

    A solitary traveler whom we saw perambulating in the distance loomed like a giant. He appeared to walk slouchingly, as if held up from above by straps under his shoulders, as much as supported by the plain below. Men and boys would have appeared alike at a little distance, there being no object by which to measure them. Indeed, to an inlander, the Cape landscape is a constant mirage.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    Osteopath—One who argues that all human ills are caused by the pressure of hard bone upon soft tissue. The proof of his theory is to be found in the heads of those who believe it.
    —H.L. (Henry Lewis)

    Now is the time for drinking [nunc est bibendum], now is the time to make the earth shake with dancing.
    Horace [Quintus Horatius Flaccus] (65–8 B.C.)

    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 (1874–1963)
