摘要
Let X and Y be metric spaces. We show that the tight images of a (fixed) tight Borel probability measure mu on X, under all Borel mappings f : X --> Y, form a closed set in the space of tight Borel probability measures on Y with the weak*-topology. In contrast, the set of images of mu under all continuous mappings from X to Y may not be closed. We also characterize completely the set of tight images of mu under Borel mappings. For example, if mu is non-atomic, then all tight Borel probability measures on Y can be obtained as images of mu, and as a matter of fact, one can always choose the corresponding Borel mapping to be of Baire class 2.
