Statement

A map from a σ-algebra (A,A) to another σ-algebra (F,F), f:AF, is A/F measurable if and only if for some generator, G, of F[Note 1] we have[1][2]:

  • SG[f1(S)A]

Which we may alternatively write (for brevity, see: abuses of the implies-subset relation) as:

  • f1(G)A

Proof

: f:AB is A/F-measurable for some generator G of F we have SG[f1(S)A]

  • Let SG be given
    • Note that Gσ(G), so by the implies-subset relation we see SGSσ(G)
    • By the definition of A/F-measurable:
      • SF[f1(S)A]
    • Thus SGSσ(G)=F
      • But as we've just seen, if SF then f1(S)A
  • So f1(S)A

This completes the proof

TODO: See ref[2] page 6, also lemma 7.2 in[1]
