Characterizing the metric compactification of $L_{p}$ spaces by random measures

We present a complete characterization of the metric compactification of $L_{p}$ spaces for $1\leq p < \infty$. Each element of the metric compactification of $L_{p}$ is represented by a random measure on a certain Polish space. By way of illustration, we revisit the $L_{p}$-mean ergodic theorem for $1 < p < \infty$, and Alspach's example of an isometry on a weakly compact convex subset of $L_{1}$ with no fixed points.
