Fubini without CH












17














In Real and Complex Analysis, Rudin gives an example (due to Sierpinski) of a function $f:[0,1]^2to[0,1]$ separately Lebesgue-measurable in each argument, such that
$$
int_0^1 dxint_0^1f(x,y),dy
neq
int_0^1 dyint_0^1f(x,y),dx
$$

(all integrals are w.r.t. the Lebesgue measure on $[0,1]$). The construction of $f$ requires the Continuum Hypothesis, and my question is: What happens if we negate CH? Does it then follow that all functions $f:[0,1]^2to[0,1]$ separately Lebesgue-measurable in each argument satisfy the conclusion of Fubini's theorem?

    This paper by Friedman appears to show that a slightly weaker statement is consistent with ZFC: if both iterated integrals make sense then they are equal.

    Martins axiom (consistent with not-CH) will be enough to do Sierpinski's example.

In general: Let $(X,A,μ)$ and $(Y,B,ν)$ be $σ$-finite measure spaces. The strong Fubini axiom ($SFA^∗$) asserts that whenever the iterated integrals for some $f:X×Y→[0,∞)$ are defined then they must be equal. It is known that for $X=Y=R$ and $μ=ν=$ Lebesgue measure, $CH$ implies not-$SFA^∗$ and the above paper shows that non(Lebesgue null)$<$Cov(Lebesgue null) implies $SFA^∗$.
