Let $E$ be a set of finite outer measure and $F$ a collection of closed, bounded intervals that cover $E$ in the sense of Vitali. Show that there is a countable disjoint collection $I_k$$_k=1^infty$ of intervals in $F$ for which



$m$*$[E$~$bigcup_k=1^inftyI_k] = 0$.



This is the same as the Vitali Covering Lemma except for each $epsilon > 0$, $m$*$[E$~$bigcup_k=1^inftyI_k] < epsilon$. In that proof, my book (Royden, 4th) uses



Theorem 11: Let $E$ be any set of real numbers. Then, each of the following four assertions is equivalent to the measurability of E.



i) For each $epsilon > 0$, there is an open set $O$ containing $E$ for which $m$*$(O$~$E)<epsilon$.



ii) There is a $G_delta$ set $G$ containing $E$ for which $m$*$(G$~$E)=0$.



iii), iv) etc.



Would this proof boil down to i) -> ii)?

    Note that in the Vitali covering theorem $E$ need not be measurable. Also, Royden's "Vitali Covering Lemma" yields a finite collection of intervals.

  • From my book: The Vitali Covering Lemma - Let E be a set of finite outer measure and F a collection of closed, bounded intervals that covers E in the sense of Vitali. Then for each epsilon>0, there is a finite disjoint subcollection, Ik's, of F for which etc. How are they different?

  • In the Vitali Covering Lemma, the collection of intervals obtained is finite, while in this exercise, it is countably infinite. Note also that we only know $mu^*(E)<infty$, not necessarily that $E$ is measurable.

  • Ok, so what would be a good way to approach this problem?
