Extract

Let G be a locally compact Hausdorff topological group, with µ the left Haar measure on G, and µ* the corresponding inner measure. If R denotes the real numbers, ℬ(G) denotes the Borel† subsets of G of finite measure, and VG = {µ(E):E∈ℬ(G)}, then, following Macbeath(4), we define ΦG: VG × VG→ R by

where AB denotes the product set of A and B in G.
