Abstract

We review some recent work by Yeneng Sun and the author. Sun’s work shows that there are results, some used for decades without a rigourous foundation, that arc only true for spaces with the rich structure of Loeb measure spaces. His joint work with the author uses that structure to extend an important result on the purification of measure valued maps.
