This formalizes the first half, (56a), of Lemma 17 of Cordero–Erausquin–Klartag, Moment measures (arXiv:1304.0630v1), cited as “Compactness of normalised potentials.”

Let EEE be finite-dimensional with a real inner product and Borel measurable structure. Let μ\muμ be a finite measure such that 000 lies in the interior of the convex hull of its support. Let ϕj:E→R‾\phi_j:E\to\overline{\mathbb R}ϕj​:E→R satisfy:

  1. ϕj(x)≥0\phi_j(x)\ge0ϕj​(x)≥0 for every j,xj,xj,x.
  2. ϕj(0)=0\phi_j(0)=0ϕj​(0)=0.
  3. Each real epigraph of ϕj\phi_jϕj​ is convex.
  4. Each x↦(ϕj(x)).toENNReal⁡x\mapsto(\phi_j(x)).\operatorname{toENNReal}x↦(ϕj​(x)).toENNReal is a.e. measurable.
  5. The supremum of their lower integrals is finite:
sup⁡j∫−(ϕj(x)).toENNReal⁡ dμ(x)≠+∞.\sup_j\int^- (\phi_j(x)).\operatorname{toENNReal}\,d\mu(x)\ne+\infty.jsup​∫−(ϕj​(x)).toENNRealdμ(x)=+∞.

Then there are a strictly increasing subsequence map s:N→Ns:\mathbb N\to\mathbb Ns:N→N and ψ:E→R‾\psi:E\to\overline{\mathbb R}ψ:E→R such that ψ≥0\psi\ge0ψ≥0, ψ(0)=0\psi(0)=0ψ(0)=0, its real epigraph is convex, and ψ.toENNReal⁡\psi.\operatorname{toENNReal}ψ.toENNReal is measurable. On the interior of the support convex hull, ψ\psiψ is finite and

ϕs(j)(x)⟶ψ(x).\phi_{s(j)}(x)\longrightarrow\psi(x).ϕs(j)​(x)⟶ψ(x).

Moreover, ψ\psiψ is radially closed, equals +∞+\infty+∞ outside the closure of that interior, and

∫−ψ(x).toENNReal⁡ dμ(x)≤lim inf⁡j→∞∫−(ϕs(j)(x)).toENNReal⁡ dμ(x).\int^-\psi(x).\operatorname{toENNReal}\,d\mu(x)\le\liminf_{j\to\infty}\int^- (\phi_{s(j)}(x)).\operatorname{toENNReal}\,d\mu(x).∫−ψ(x).toENNRealdμ(x)≤j→∞liminf​∫−(ϕs(j)​(x)).toENNRealdμ(x).

This is the compactness and lower-integral part of the convex-potential argument.
