Strong Convergence of Measures
For a measurable space, a sequence is said to converge strongly to a limit if
for every set .
For example, as a consequence of the Riemann–Lebesgue lemma, the sequence of measures on the interval given by converges strongly to Lebesgue measure, but it does not converge in total variation.

Famous quotes containing the words strong and/or measures:
“Power is, in nature, the essential measure of right. Nature suffers nothing to remain in her kingdoms which cannot help itself. The genesis and maturation of a planet, its poise and orbit, the bended tree recovering itself from the strong wind, the vital resources of every animal and vegetable, are demonstrations of the self-sufficing and therefore self-relying soul.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
“However much we may differ in the choice of the measures which should guide the administration of the government, there can be but little doubt in the minds of those who are really friendly to the republican features of our system that one of its most important securities consists in the separation of the legislative and executive powers at the same time that each is acknowledged to be supreme, in the will of the people constitutionally expressed.”
—Andrew Jackson (1767–1845)
