Does $fin L^1$ implies $login L^1$?




I think it is not since $|log|f||$ can be arbitrarily big if $|f|$ is arbitrarily small.



But it seems $log|f|in L^1$ is true because of the following inequality,



$$int_Xlog|f|dmu leq logleft(int_X |f|dmu right)$$ if $mu(X)=1$ due to Jensen's inequality.



I am stuck with it... Thanks in advance for any hint and answers!

    Even if you don't allow $f=0$, the problem is you don't have a lower bound on $int_X log |f|; dmu$, which can be arbitrarily negative.

  • @AshwinTrisal Right! there was no restriction for $f$ not to be $0$ !Thanks!

What you said proves this holds for finite measure spaces, so instead consider
$f(x) = tfrac1x^2$ defined on $[1,infty)$. Then $$|f|_1 = int_1^infty x^-2,dx = left. x^-1right|_infty^1 = 1$$ so $fin L^1[0,infty)$ but
$$int_1^infty |log f|,dmu = int_1^infty 2log x,dmu = infty$$ so $log f notin L^1[0,infty)$. Zero function works too (see comments) but this is a nontrivial example.

  • Thank you for answer. But what if $mu(X)=1$? Is there still a counter example of nonzero $f$?

  • You are right, you'd need $|log f| = log f$, or $f geq 1$.
