On the way to proving that Hausdorff Measure is $G_\delta$ regular (that is for any set $A\subset \mathbb{R}^n$ there is a $G_\delta$ set B that $H^s(B)=H^s(A)$). I found myself stuck on the following problem:
Given an $\epsilon>0$, I need to produce (through construction or proving that it exists) a collection $\{E_i\}_{i\in\mathbb{N}}$ such that
- $\text{diam }E_i < \epsilon$ for all $i \in \mathbb{N}$
- $A\subset \bigcup_{i\in \mathbb{N}}E_i$
- $\bigcup_{i\in \mathbb{N}}E_i$ is open.
EDIT: we must also ask (and this is the tricky bit) that:
- $H_\epsilon^s(A) \leq \sum(\text{diam }E_i)^s\leq H_\epsilon^s(A)+\epsilon$
I cannot think of a way to prove the existence of such a collection. Any help is appreciated.
