When talking of measurable sets we shall always mean sets of finite measure unless the opposite is stated.
Writing the product of sets we shall often omit the sign × for convenience of printing.

Δ (A, B) denotes the distance between the setsA andB, so that Δ (a 0,a) is the distance between the pointsa 0 anda, Δ (ψ,a) is the distance from the curve ψ to the pointa, and so on. — u. bd = upper bound.
For a proof see R. Courant and D. Hilbert, Methoden der mathematischen Physik, Bd. I, Kap. II, § 2.
We denote byE 1-E 2 the set of points ofE 1 which do not belong toE 2;E 2 may or may not be entirely contained inE 1.
