Tangent Measure - Properties

Properties

The collection of tangent measures at a point is closed under two types of scaling. Cones of measures were also defined by Preiss.

  • The set Tan(μ, a) of tangent measures of a measure μ at a point a in the support of μ is a cone of measures, i.e. if and, then .
  • The cone Tan(μ, a) of tangent measures of a measure μ at a point a in the support of μ is a d-cone or dilation invariant, i.e. if and, then .

At typical points in the support of a measure, the cone of tangent measures is also closed under translations.

  • At μ almost every a in the support of μ, the cone Tan(μ, a) of tangent measures of μ at a is translation invariant, i.e. if and x is in the support of ν, then .

Famous quotes containing the word properties:

    The reason why men enter into society, is the preservation of their property; and the end why they choose and authorize a legislative, is, that there may be laws made, and rules set, as guards and fences to the properties of all the members of the society: to limit the power, and moderate the dominion, of every part and member of the society.
    John Locke (1632–1704)

    A drop of water has the properties of the sea, but cannot exhibit a storm. There is beauty of a concert, as well as of a flute; strength of a host, as well as of a hero.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
