# Math Help - dominated convergence theorem for convergence in measure

1. ## dominated convergence theorem for convergence in measure

hi,
Ive just read this on wikipedia:
"(X, M, μ) - measure space. If μ is σ-finite, Lebesgue's dominated convergence theorem also holds if almost everywhere convergence is replaced by convergence in measure."
How could i go about proving this?

I know that if a sequence f_n --> f in measure, then there is a subsequence which converges to f a.e. I can apply the DCT on this subsequence, but how would i show the it works for the whole sequence? Also, how would i use the fact that μ is σ-finite?
Thank you

I think you have the right idea. The point is that every subsequence has in turn a subsequence that converges to f a.e.

The measure $\mu$ is $\sigma$-finite iff every subsequence has in turn a subsequence that converges a.e.
