A survey of small ball theorems and problems

General Measure Theory

Part of the Lecture Notes in Mathematics book series (LNM,volume 794)

Abstract

We study the problem to what extent a measure is determined by its values on a family of balls and how it might possibly be computed from those values.

Keywords

  • Convex Cone
  • Gaussian Measure
