A One-Sentence Inverse Image Proof of Lusin's Theorem

Classical Analysis and ODEs 2018-11-01 v1

Abstract

Standard proofs of Lusin's theorem, using simple functions, are sometimes quite elaborate. Here, we give a one-sentence proof of Lusin's theorem. We do not believe our approach, by way of inverse images, is new. However, this particular proof is strikingly clear and succinct.
