Characteristic Function of a Finite Measure #

This file defines the characteristic function of a finite measure on a topological vector space V.

The characteristic function of a finite measure P on V is the mapping W → ℂ, w => ∫ v, e (L v w) ∂P, where e is a continuous additive character and L : V →ₗ[ℝ] W →ₗ[ℝ] ℝ is a bilinear map.

A typical example is V = W = ℝ and L v w = v * w.

The integral is expressed as ∫ v, char he hL w v ∂P, where char he hL w is the bounded continuous function fun v ↦ e (L v w) and he, hL are continuity hypotheses on e and L.

Main definition #

TODO: give a definition of the characteristic function for standard choices of e and L.

If the integrals of char with respect to two finite measures P and P' coincide, then P = P'.
