The event belongs to . Its -measure can therefore be computed using the finite-level density:Let . Because the chosen versions satisfy everywhere, every point of eventually lies in all the . For each , the set has -measure at most ; these sets increase as increases. Continuity from below givesLetting yields . In contrast, the preceding part says . Thus is concentrated on the -null set . This proves that and are mutually singular measures, and completes the martingale construction of Lebesgue decomposition:The key step is that the density identity is available on each even though need not have a density on the full Borel sigma-algebra.
