Le Cam's first lemma

ID: le-cam-s-first-lemma

Let be the probability density function of the absolutely continuous part of relative to . If converges in distribution under to almost surely with , then are mutually contiguous. Indeed, and convergence to a mean-one limit imply uniform integrability and vanishing singular mass, giving forward contiguity. For reverse contiguity, , and one first takes and then .
