Grade: A*
This page is currently being refactored (along with many others)
Please note that this does not mean the content is unreliable. It just means the page doesn't conform to the style of the site (usually due to age) or a better way of presenting the information has been discovered.

Definition

Given a set, [ilmath]X[/ilmath], and a [ilmath]\sigma[/ilmath]-algebra, [ilmath]\mathcal{A}\in\mathcal{P}(\mathcal{P}(X))[/ilmath][Note 1] then a measurable space[1][2] is the tuple:

  • [ilmath](X,\mathcal{A})[/ilmath]

This is not to be confused with a measure space which is a [ilmath]3[/ilmath]-tuple: [ilmath](X,\mathcal{A},\mu)[/ilmath] where [ilmath]\mu[/ilmath] is a measure on the measurable space [ilmath](X,\mathcal{A})[/ilmath]

Definition

A measurable space[1] is a tuple consisting of a set [ilmath]X[/ilmath] and a [ilmath]\sigma[/ilmath]-algebra [ilmath]\mathcal{A} [/ilmath], which we denote:

  • [ilmath](X,\mathcal{A})[/ilmath]

Pre-measurable space

A pre-measurable space[2] is a set [ilmath]X[/ilmath] coupled with an algebra, [ilmath]\mathcal{A} [/ilmath] (where [ilmath]\mathcal{A} [/ilmath] is NOT a [ilmath]\sigma[/ilmath]-algebra) which we denote as follows:

  • [ilmath](X,\mathcal{A})[/ilmath]
