A characteristic property of a measurable function that is finite almost-everywhere on its domain of definition. A function , finite almost-everywhere on , has the -property on if for every there is a perfect set in with measure on which is continuous if considered only on . The -property was introduced by N.N. Luzin [1], who also proved that for a function to have the -property it is necessary and sufficient that it be measurable and finite almost-everywhere on . This theorem of Luzin (the Luzin criterion) can be generalized to the case of functions of several variables (see [3], [4]) and is one of the main theorems in the metric theory of functions.
