Abstract.
In this article we are interested in the regularity properties of the probability measure induced by the solution process of the Lévy noise or a fractional Brownian motion driven Navier Stokes Equation on the two dimensional torus . We mainly investigate under which conditions on the characteristic measure of the Lévy process or the Hurst parameter of the fractal Brownian motion the law of the projection of onto any finite dimensional is absolutely continuous with respect to the Lebesgue measure on .
1. Introduction
We consider the Navier-Stokes equations (NSEs) subjected to the periodic boundary condition on the torus
[TABLE]
where and are unknown vector field and scalar periodic functions in the space variable representing the fluid velocity and the pressure, respectively. We assume that we are given an initial velocity . The perturbation denotes, roughly speaking, the Radon-Nikodym derivative of a Lévy process or a fractional Brownian motion . In the case when is a Wiener noise the above system has been the subject of intensive mathematical studies since the pioneering work of Bensoussan and Temam. The analysis of the qualitative properties and long time behaviour of its solutions has generated several important results, see for instance [5, 8, 14, 16, 20], to cite a few results. Particularly, when
[TABLE]
where is a sequence of non-negative numbers, is a sequence of independent, identically distributed real-valued Brownian motions and is an orthonormal basis of the space of square integrable, periodic and divergence free functions with mean zero, the authors in [9], [1] and [22] proved the existence of densities for the laws of finite dimensional functionals of its solutions. In these papers different methods are used to prove the existence of such densities, for instance in [9] a method based on Girsanov theorem is used and the Malliavin calculus is used in [22]. In [1] a method based on controllability of (1) in finite-dimensional projections and an abstract result on image of decomposable measure under analytic mappings is used. This method does not use the Gaussian structure of the noise as the methods in [9] and [22]. In this paper we are mainly interested in proving the existence of densities for the laws of finite-dimensional analytic functionals of the solution of (1) when the driving noise is a Lévy noise or a fractional Brownian motion. For this purpose we extend the results in [1] to our framework. Although we closely follow the approach in [1] the extension of the result therein to our setting is not trivial. In fact, the proof in [1] relies very much on the natural decomposability of the driving noise law in a Hilbert space which is not naturally satisfied by a Lévy process or a fractional Brownian. In fact, even if the Lévy noise (or fractional Brownian motion) has a decomposition as in (2), which is one of the main assumptions in [1], it is not known whether there exists a Hilbert space on which the law of on is decomposable. In order to overcome this difficulty we prove, by using wavelet analysis and the decomposability of measure on Banach space introduced in [11], that there exists a Banach space with Schauder basis on which the law of is decomposable. With this result at hand and using the solid controllability of (1) we can prove the existence of densities for the laws of finite-dimensional projection of the solutions of (1).
In the next section we will fix the notation and present some preliminary results. Section 3 is devoted to the statement and the proof of our main result which will be applied to the stochastic 2D Navier-Stokes equations in the torus. In Appendix A and Appendix B we present and prove several results related to the wavelet expansion of Lévy noise and fractional Brownian motion, respectively. In Appendix C we establish a zero one law result, which is crucial for the proof of the main result, for decomposable measures.
2. Notations, Hypotheses and preliminary results
For a separable Banach space we denote by its Borel –algebra. For a subspace of we denote by the subspace of such that , i.e., . Furthermore, for and we set
[TABLE]
Let be a probability measure on and and as above. We define a probability measure on by
[TABLE]
For a subspace we set
[TABLE]
If is finite dimensional, then we denote by the measure defined by
[TABLE]
where is the isomorphism , .
We can now introduce the following definition.
Definition 2.1**.**
Let be a family of mutually disjoint closed subspaces of , i.e. , . We set and . If for any there exists a kernel
[TABLE]
such that
[TABLE]
where , then we say that the measure is decomposable with decomposition .
Hereafter we fix a separable Banach space with Schauder basis and we set
[TABLE]
We also set
[TABLE]
along which we consider a probability kernel
[TABLE]
The projection onto any nontrivial subspace is denoted by . Having fixed these notations we now proceed to the statement of our standing assumptions.
Analysing Theorem 2.2 of [1], one can easily verify that following assumption is essential.
Assumption 2.1**.**
Let be a decomposable measure with decomposition . We assume that for any there exists a positive function such that –a.s. we have for all
[TABLE]
Assumption 2.1 is often difficult to verify. Hence we formulate the next assumption which is more stronger but easier to check than the above. In fact, we prove in Lemma C.1 that the following assumption, i.e. Assumption 2.2, implies Assumption 2.1.
Assumption 2.2**.**
Let be a decomposable measure with decomposition
[TABLE]
such that is absolutely continuous with respect to the Lebesgue measure .
Our third standing set of conditions is given in the following next lines.
Assumption 2.3**.**
Let and let be a decomposition of . There exists a point
[TABLE]
such that
- (1)
for any and
[TABLE] 2. (2)
for all numbers there exists a such that for all , and all , there exists a such that
[TABLE]
In order to clarify the role of the above assumption we shall introduce the following definition.
Definition 2.2**.**
We call a set a finite zero one –set if and only if for all
[TABLE]
where .
Let . Now, let us present the generalization of Theorem 4 in [11], respective [1, Theorem 1.6]], whose proof requires that the measure is decomposable and has a finite second moment (see [1, Property (P), page 402] for the precise statement).
Theorem 2.1**.**
Let be an analytic function and let be a decomposable measure with density satisfying Assumption 2.2 and Assumption 2.3. Let be defined by
[TABLE]
Then, we have
[TABLE]
Furthermore, if is not identical zero, then .
Proof of Theorem 2.1:.
Let . Since is analytic, for all for any the function is also analytic. Therefore, either or , where . Thus, is a finite zero–one set, and there exists a set such that and .
To prove the second part we assume that and we shall show that . For this purpose let be fixed and set and where is the point from Assumption 2.3. Observe that is analytic and thus
[TABLE]
We shall now distinguish two cases: and . For the first case, i.e., we observe that by the continuity of there exists a number such that for all from which along with item (2) of Assumption 2.3 we easily conclude that . To treat the second case, i.e, , we first notice that, since is analytic, we have
[TABLE]
which implies that for any one can find such that and . Since is continuous we can find a number such that for all . Item (2) of Assumption 2.3 with yields that from which it easily follows that .
The above theorem will, as in [1, Theorem 2.2], be used to prove the existence of the density of law of the finite projection on finite dimensional space of the solution of a stochastic evolution equation driven by Lévy noise and fractional Brownian motion.
3. The main result
In this section we consider an abstract stochastic evolution equation in a separable Banach space
[TABLE]
where the driving noise is either a Lévy process or a fractional Brownian motion, and is a densely defined bilinear operator taking values in . We assume that the above equation is uniquely solvable in and we denote the solution starting from at time by .
In order to formulate the main result of this section we need to introduce few concepts from the control theory. For this aim, let be a separable Banach space be fixed number and let us consider the following control problem
[TABLE]
where is the control and is the control space (the trajectories of our noise will be basically belong to ). For a fixed time we denote by
[TABLE]
the so called solution operator that takes each function and initial condition to the solution of the system (9).
Definition 3.1**.**
A system is controllable in time for a finite dimensional subspace if and only if
[TABLE]
for any .
Definition 3.2**.**
A system is solidly controllable in time for a finite dimensional subspace , if and only if for any and any , there exists an and a compact set such that for any function satisfying
[TABLE]
we have
[TABLE]
With this preliminary works the following general result can be shown.
Theorem 3.1**.**
Let be a separable Banach space with Schauder basis . Let be a finite dimensional subspace of . We assume that the embedding is continuous, is also a Schauder basis in , and the law of the noise on is decomposable on with the decomposition , where notation used in (3) and (4) is enforced, satisfying Assumptions 2.2 and 2.3. For a fixed number we also assume that
- (A1)
the solution operator defined in (10) which is generated by the system (9) is analytic, 2. (A2)
and for any finite dimensional space , the system (9) is solidly controllable in time for the finite dimensional space .
Then, for any and for any finite dimensional subspace there exists a density function such that
[TABLE]
Proof.
Let us fix a finite dimensional subspace of and consider the operator
[TABLE]
where , solves equation (8) and is defined in (10).
The proof of our theorem will follow from the applicability of [1, Theorem 2.2]. Thus we just need to check that all the assumptions of [1, Theorem 2.2] are all satisfied. For this aim it is sufficient to prove the two claims below.
- Claim1
. There exists a finite dimensional subspace of such that for any , there exists a ball and a ball such that
[TABLE]
To prove this claim we fix a large number such that . By the definition of solidly controllability, we know that there exists an and a compact set such that, any function satisfying
[TABLE]
satisfies
[TABLE]
Fix , and the corresponding compact set . Since the operator
[TABLE]
is continuous, it is uniformly continuous on , and, hence, there exists a such that
[TABLE]
Since the function system is a Schauder basis of , it follows that is a dense subset in . In particular, since is compact, for any , there exists a number such that
[TABLE]
Let be sufficiently large such that
[TABLE]
Let us define
[TABLE]
by
[TABLE]
From the consideration above, it follows that
[TABLE]
Hence, by the solid controllability
[TABLE]
In particular, since is a bounded set of , there exists a number such that . Setting and we have
[TABLE]
which proves Claim1. 2. Claim2
. The measure on satisfies Assumption 2.1.
Claim 2 is easy to prove. Thanks to Lemma C.1 the measure satisfies Assumption 2.3, which is equivalent to Claim 2.
4. Application to the 2D stochastic Navier-Stokes
Throughout this section denotes the 2D torus, and will respectively denote the usual Lebesgue space of -integrable functions and Sobolev spaces. The symbol is the Besov spaces of all -valued functions defined on the interval .
Let be the set of periodic, divergence free and infinitely differentiable function with zero mean. In what follows, we denote by and the closures of in and , respectively. We endow the space with the -scalar product denoted by and the usual -norm denoted by . The space is equipped with the gradient norm . We also set
[TABLE]
where is the orthogonal projection from onto . It is well-known that the Stokes operator is positive self-adjoint with compact resolvent and its eigenfunctions , with eigenvalues , form an orthonormal basis of . It is also well-known that , see [15, Appendix A.1 of Chapter II]. Furthermore, we see from [27, Chapter II, Section 1.2] and [15, Appendix A.3 of Chapter II] that one can define a continuous bilinear map from with values in such that
[TABLE]
With all these notations the Navier-Stokes equations (1) can be written in the abstract form
[TABLE]
where for the sake of simplicity we assume that . The positive number denotes the viscosity. Before characterizing the noise entering our system, we introduce the trigonometric basis in by elements in . Namely, we write and set
[TABLE]
where . The family is a complete set of eigenfunctions for the Stokes operator which forms an orthonormal basis in .
For any symmetric set containing we write and define with as the union for and the family of vectors for which there are such that , , and , where .
Definition 4.1**.**
A symmetric subset containing is saturating, if and only if .
Throughout we set and denote by the finite dimensional subspace of spanned by the eigenvectors . The driving noise is either
[TABLE]
where is a family of identical distributed and mutual independent Lévy processes with Lévy measure over a probability space , or
[TABLE]
where is a family of identical distributed and mutual independent fractal Brownian motions with Hurst parameter over a probability space . The existence of a unique solution to (16) follows from the results in [6] for example for the case of pure jump Lévy noise, and from [21] for case of fractional Brownian motion perturbation.
We can now state the main results of this section. We start with the following theorem which treats the case of Navier-Stokes equations driven by Lévy noise.
Theorem 4.1**.**
Let be a saturating set and assume that the noise entering the system (8) is defined by (17). We also assume that the Lévy measures , , are symmetric and equivalent to the Lebesgue measure on and satisfies
[TABLE]
for some . In addition, we assume that there exists a number such that
[TABLE]
for some slow varying function . Let be the unique solution of system (8). Then for any finite dimension subspace , for all initial conditions , there exists a density function such that
[TABLE]
In addition, for any sequence with as , we have
[TABLE]
Proof.
For simplicity, let us assume . As in the previous section we consider map
[TABLE]
which is the solution operator that takes each function and initial condition to the solution of the control system (9) associated to the Navier-Stokes equations. It is proved in [1, Proposition A.2], see also [19], that the operator is analytic. It is also known from [1, Proposition A.5 ], see also [2], that the system (9) for the Navier-Stokes is solidly controllable in time for any finite dimensional space . Hereafter we respectively identify and to and . Let such that (19) is satisfied. Let be the conjugate exponent to and . For each let be the map defined by
[TABLE]
and be the cylindrical measure on defined by
[TABLE]
where , . In Proposition A.2 we show that the cylindrical measure is actually a Radon probability measure on .
From the results of Section A we infer that the probability measure on is decomposable with decomposition , where and are respectively defined by , , , where and are defined in (21) and the existence of is given by Lemma A.3. With at hand the space is defined as in Definition 2.1. Moreover, we infer from Lemma A.7 that for each the probability measure satisfies Assumptions 2.2 and 2.3. With these observation in mind, it is not difficult to check that the product measure satisfies Assumptions 2.2 and 2.3 on the Banach space where . Now, the proof of the theorem easily follows from an application of Theorem 3.1.
We now proceed to the statement and the proof of the above theorem when the noise entering the system is a fractional Brownian motion given by (18).
Theorem 4.2**.**
Let be a saturating set and assume that the noise is a fractional Brownian motion defined by (18) with Hurst parameter . Let be the unique solution of system (8) with initial condition . Then, for any finite dimensional space and initial condition , there exists a density function such that
[TABLE]
In addition, for any sequence with as , we have
[TABLE]
Proof.
Let be the solution operator defined by (20) in the proof of Theorem 4.1. It satisfies the properties enumerated in the proof of Theorem 4.1. Hereafter we respectively identify and to and . Let . For each let be the map defined by
[TABLE]
and be the cylindrical measure on defined by
[TABLE]
where , . From the results of Section B we infer that the cylindrical measure on is actually a probability measure and is decomposable with decomposition , where and are respectively defined by , , , where and are defined in (33). With in mind we define as in Definition 2.1. We also infer from Lemma A.7 that for each the probability measure satisfies Assumptions 2.2 and 2.3. We now easily complete the proof by using a similar argument as in the proof of Theorem 4.1.
Appendix A The Lévy Noise and its Wavelet Expansion
In this section we assume that we are given a real-valued Lévy process with -additive Lévy measure on satisfying (19), i.e.
[TABLE]
for some . Our aim is to investigate the expansion of the process in terms of Debauchies wavelets of order . To keep this section and the article short we refer to the reader for the technical jargon about wavelets to [7] or [28].
We start introducing the Daubechies wavelets, see for e.g. [7]. For such aim we fix and consider the Debauchies wavelets having continuous bounded derivatives up to order . It is known, see for e.g [7], that to we can associate scaling function denoted by . With these in mind, the system of wavelets is given by
[TABLE]
where , . The corresponding multiresolution analysis is defined by
[TABLE]
For detail on the properties of the wavelet basis we refer to [28, Theorem 1.58] or to [17]. Note that for the Daubechies wavelets of order , with , form an unconditional basis of . In particular, for each element there exists a unique sequence
[TABLE]
such that can be written as
[TABLE]
Note that since we are considering the process on the time interval , we only need to sum over . We also note that .
In the next paragraph, we will construct the probability measure induced by a Lévy process which will be represented as an integral with respect to a Poisson random measure. This representation is motivated in one hand by the fact that the use of Poisson random measure simplifies many calculation. In other hand the Poisson random measure framework seems more general. We refer to [3], [24, Chapters 6-8] and [26, Chapter 4] for a precise connection between Poisson random measures and Lévy processes and stochastic integration with respect to them.
Over a probability space , we consider a time homogenous Poisson random measure on with symmetric intensity measure as above.
Proposition A.1**.**
The Poisson random measure over a probability space induces a Radon probability measure on .
Proof.
We will start the proof with removing jumps of size bigger than and let converges to 0. For this purpose we take an arbitrary constant and define a Poisson random measure by
[TABLE]
The family induces a family of cylindrical measures on . Here, it is important that the to Poisson random measure corresponding the Lévy process can be written as a sum over finitely many jumps at certain, possibly random, jump times. To be more precise, let be defined by , , let be a Poisson distributed random variable with parameter , be a family of independent uniform distributed random variables on , and be a family of independent, distributed random variables. Denoting the Dirac distribution concentrated at , the Poisson random measure can be written as
[TABLE]
and for any the mapping
[TABLE]
is well defined.
Let us define the random variables
[TABLE]
[TABLE]
Since the mother wavelet and the scaling function are continuous, the families of random variables over are well defined. In addition, by the definition of and and the fact that the multiresolution analysis is a Schauder basis in , and (see [25, Remark 3, p. 34]), we infer that admits a wavelet series representation as in (22).
Note that for any ,
[TABLE]
Later on we will need the following proposition which will be proved at the end of the current proof.
Proposition A.2**.**
Let be a Lévy measure satisfying (19) for some and . Let
[TABLE]
Then,
- (1)
for any , there exists a such that
[TABLE] 2. (2)
For any and we have
[TABLE]
By the choice of and , we have and is a finite measure. Secondly, the mappings induces a the family of cylindrical measures on defined by
[TABLE]
, and .
We will now show that the family of cylindrical measures has a limit. In fact, the family of probability measures is tight on . To show this claim we fix a constant . We firstly note that the embedding is compact. Secondly, the Chebyscheff inequality and Proposition A.2 give that for any we can find a compact such that
[TABLE]
It follows that the family of probability measures is tight on . It even follows from Proposition A.2 that the sequence forms a Cauchy sequence and the limit is unique. Therefore, there exists a unique cylindrical measure on . Since there exists a constant such that for all , it follows from the Lebesgue Dominated Convergence Theorem that . Hence, is also a Radon probability measure on .
Now we shall consider the general case in which is assumed to satisfy (19) for some . For this purpose we consider the Poisson random measures and defined by
[TABLE]
and
[TABLE]
respectively. Since , the Poisson random measures and are independent. Hence, the two families of coefficients in the wavelet expansion and are independent too. In addition from the first part of the proof induces a Radon probability measure on . Since the process
[TABLE]
can be written as a finite sum over jumps happen at certain, possibly random, times within the interval , consist of a sum over finitely many Dirac distributions. Since any Dirac distributions belong to , is an element of and induces a probability measure on . Hence, itself induces a Radon probability measure on .
Proof of Proposition A.2:.
We recall that for some . By the definition of the norm we get
[TABLE]
Since
[TABLE]
we infer that there exists a constant such that
[TABLE]
which is finite for .
Let us denote the Radon probability measure induced by on by and let us define the mapping
[TABLE]
This mapping is well defined thanks to the above calculation.
We are now interested in the properties of the decomposition of by the multiresolution analysis. In particular, we will show that for any , the probability measure is equivalent to the Lebesgue measure.
We firstly note that since , given the coefficients , one knows the coefficient of . For let us denote the coefficients of . In particular, we have
[TABLE]
which implies that
[TABLE]
Let us now denote by and the random vectors and , respectively. Finally, for a function we write
[TABLE]
Lemma A.1**.**
Let be a mapping such that there exists constants and , such that for all . Then
- (1)
; 2. (2)
the law of is absolutely continuous with respect to the Lebesgue measure.
Proof.
Let us define the following Lévy measure

Then is an infinite divisible random variable, and item (i) follows from [26, Corollary 24.4]. Item (ii) follows from [26, Theorem 27.7].
Lemma A.2**.**
For any , the measure
[TABLE]
is equivalent to the Lebesgue measure on .
Proof.
This follows from the fact that for all , the functions and have disjoint supports. Let us write with , is an interval , , and is bounded away from zero. Then and are independent, and so are and . In addition, by Lemma A.1 the law of is equivalent to the Lebesgue measure. Hence, from [26, Lemma 27.1-(iii)] it follows that the law of the sum of the random variables and is also equivalent to the Lebesgue measure. Now, one easily prove the assertion by an induction starting at .
Lemma A.3**.**
For each and , the conditioned measure
[TABLE]
is equivalent to the Lebesgue measure.
Proof.
Given the scaling function there exists coefficients , where is the order of the Daubechies wavelet, such that
[TABLE]
In addition, we have the following representation
[TABLE]
Because of the orthogonality of the wavelet basis we additionally have that
[TABLE]
Let us now consider the mapping
[TABLE]
where . It is not difficult to show that is an isomorphism from onto . We note that since , it follows from (26) that there exists a linear mapping which induces a mapping
[TABLE]
We can also define a mapping by . As above we can also find a linear mapping inducing a mapping
[TABLE]
Since , we have and . Hence, from the Bayes formula we infer that
[TABLE]
for any and . By Lemma A.2 and . In particular, there exists a density
[TABLE]
such that
[TABLE]
and for all and .
In order to verify Assumption 2.3 for a point we will show in the following Lemma that for all , belongs to the support of the measure . If this holds, we can set .
Lemma A.4**.**
Let , and . Let be a –finite symmetric measure on such that there exists a number such that
[TABLE]
for some slow varying function . Let be the to corresponding Poisson random measure over the probability space . Let be the from defined in (23) on induced probability measure. Then for any ,

Let be given by
[TABLE]
From [4], Example 2.2 we know that
[TABLE]
hence, for any there exists a such that
[TABLE]
Let be a constant to be chosen later and let us set
[TABLE]
Then,
[TABLE]
Note that on the jump size of the process is less than . Hence
[TABLE]
and
[TABLE]
From these calculations we infer that
[TABLE]
Now, choosing such that
[TABLE]
we infer that
[TABLE]
from which the assertion follows.
For any we define the conditional probability by
[TABLE]
Lemma A.5**.**
Let , and . Let be a –finite symmetric measure on such that there exists a number such that

Let also be the Poisson random measure, over the probability space , associated to the Lévy measure . Let be the probability measure on induced by the mapping defined in (23). Then, for any , and there exist and some such that
[TABLE]
Proof.
From Lemma A.4 we infer that there exists a constant such that for
[TABLE]
where and is defined in (29), Observe that the set satisfies . Thus,
[TABLE]
Now, from (30) we infer that
[TABLE]
Therefore,
[TABLE]
For any there exists a number sufficiently large, such that
[TABLE]
which gives the assertion.
Lemma A.6**.**
Let , and . Let be a –finite symmetric measure on such that there exists a number such that

Then
[TABLE]
We now set and observe that for there exists a closed set such that and the function

[TABLE]
is a compact subset of and there exists a such that for all , . From the above consideration we now infer that
[TABLE]
The above discussion is summarized in the following lemma.
Lemma A.7**.**
Let be a time homogeneous Poisson random measure on over a probability space . We assume that the Lévy measure associated to is symmetric, -additive, absolutely continuous with respect to the Lebesgue measure on . In addition, we assume, that there exists some with

*Let be the wavelet basis in described in Section A. Then, the measure induced by the map defined by (23) on is decomposable with decomposition satisfying Assumption 2.2 and Assumption 2.3. Here the spaces are defined by , , , and are defined in (21), and is defined in (25). *
Proof.
The decomposability follows from the fact the wavelet basis described in section A is a Schauder basis of . Assumption 2.3-(1) follows from choosing and from the fact that is equivalent to the Lebesgue measure and that for any we have (see Lemma A.3)

Using an induction argument one can easily show that for any open set in from which it follows that is absolutely continuous with respect to . Finally, Assumption 2.3-(2) follows from Lemma A.6.
Appendix B The Fractional Brownian Noise and its Wavelet Expansion
Let a the fractional Brownian motion with Hurst parameter . Let us fix and consider the mapping

The Haar wavelet is an unconditional basis in with , a basis in for and , and a basis for , and (see Triebel [28, Theorem 1.58]).
Now, let , , , and , and . Let us denote the projection of onto by and onto by . For the time being let us assume that the Radon-Nikodym derivative of the fractional Brownian motion belongs to . Since the Haar wavelets are a basis of , then for each element there exists a unique sequence such that

Remark B.1**.**
If one can find a number such that . Since all coefficients of and are Gaussian distributed, their law are equivalent with respect to the Lebesgue measure. Now, since the Haar basis is a Schauder basis in , Assumption 2.2 is satisfied. By the same arguments as used in the proof of Lemma A.6, one can show that Assumption 2.3 is also satisfied.
Lemma B.1**.**
Let be a fractional Bownian motion with Hurst parameter and the probability measure on defined by (31). Let be the wavelet basis in described in (32). Then, the measure is decomposable with decomposition satisfying Assumption 2.2 and Assumption 2.3.
Appendix C Zero One Laws for decomposable measures with density
In this Section we generalize the Theorem 4 of [11] to decomposable measures with decomposition as defined in Definition 2.1. We will also identify the conditions under which a measure satisfies Assumption 2.1 and Assumption 2.2.
Throughout this section denotes and arbitrary a separable Banach space and the –algebra generated by its open sets. Let be a measure on and and be two subsets of such that . Then, there is a probability measure

For and let .
As mentioned in the introduction the concept of decomposability can be extended to the notion of decomposability we introduced in Definition 2.1.
Example C.1**.**
Let be a separable Banach space and be a Schauder basis and . For each element there exists a unique sequence in such that . Let , ,
[TABLE]
be a projection from onto and
[TABLE]
Then, the probability measure of each –valued random variable is decomposable in the sense of Definition 2.1. This can be shown by the following consideration. From the Radon-Nikodym Theorem (see [18, Theorem 6.3]) for any –valued random variable there exists a probability kernel
[TABLE]
such that
- (1)
* for all ;* 2. (2)
for each the mapping
[TABLE]
is –measurable
To simplify the notation let us denote by and by . Note that given a decomposition of it is essential that the kernel has a density with respect to the Lebesgue measure on which, as we will show in the next Lemma, follows from the absolute continuity of with respect to for any .
Lemma C.1**.**
Let be a separable Banach space and be a Schauder basis and , . Let us assume that for all is absolutely continuous with respect to . Then for any ,
[TABLE]
In particular, for any with , we have
[TABLE]
Proof.
Fix with . We will show that . From [23, Theorem 4.1 ] we infer that for all there exists a subset such that and
[TABLE]
is continuous. Now let us set
[TABLE]
Since l_{n}(\cdot,U)\big{|}_{C^{\epsilon}_{n,A}} is continuous and the sets and are closed, the set is closed. Hence,
[TABLE]
Since , we additionally have
[TABLE]
By the definition of the set we have
[TABLE]
Since , we have . Now, from the closedness of and the regularity of the measure we infer that
[TABLE]
Lemma C.2**.**
Let be a decomposable finite measure on with decomposition Let us assume that is absolutely continuous with respect to . Then, for any satisfying we have
[TABLE]
Proof.
Let and such that . We will show that .
Firstly, note that by the Radon-Nikodym Theorem the mapping
[TABLE]
is measurable. Hence, from [23, Theorem 4.1] we infer that for all there exists a closed subset of such that and the function
[TABLE]
is continuous.
Secondly, let us set
[TABLE]
From the continuity of l_{n}(\cdot,U)\big{|}_{C^{\epsilon}_{n,U}} and the fact that the sets and are closed we conclude the set is also closed. Next, thanks to the definition of we obtain that
[TABLE]
Furthermore, because we also have
[TABLE]
Invoking now the definition of the set we obtain
[TABLE]
Since , we have . From the closedness of and the regularity of the measure we infer that
[TABLE]
Therefore,

From
[TABLE]

[TABLE]
Definition C.1**.**
We call a set a finite zero one –set if and only if for all
[TABLE]

Let us now present the generalization of Theorem 4 in [11].
Theorem C.1**.**

The proof is very similar to the proof of [11, Theorem 4]. Let us assume . For fix we set ,
[TABLE]
and . For the time being let us assume that
[TABLE]
Then,

Since is regular we additionally have that
[TABLE]
from which the assertion of Theorem C.1 follows.
Now it remains to prove (34). To this end, observe first that because of Lemma C.1 the kernel is –a.s. absolutely continuous on . Hence, by the Radon-Nikodym Theorem for –a.s. there exists a probability kernel
[TABLE]
such that
[TABLE]
Then, by using we obtain that
