For any family of measurable sets in a probability space, we show that either (i) the family has infinite Vapnik-Chervonenkis (VC) dimension or (ii) for every epsilon > 0 there is a finite partition pi such the pi-boundary of each set has measure at most epsilon. Immediate corollaries include the fact that a family wit…

In this paper we set up the family Seiberg-Witten theory. It can be applied to the counting of nodal pseudo-holomorphic curves in a symplectic 4-manifold (especially a Kahler surface). A new feature in this theory is that the chamber structure plays a more prominent role. We derive some wall crossing formulas measuring…
