Theorem statement
If [ilmath]\mathcal{A} [/ilmath] is a system of subsets of [ilmath]\Omega[/ilmath] such that[1]:
- [math]\forall A\in\mathcal{A}[A^c\in\mathcal{A}][/math] where denotes the complement of [ilmath]A[/ilmath] - That is to say "[ilmath]\mathcal{A} [/ilmath] is closed under complements"
Then we have:[Note 1]
- [ilmath]\mathcal{A} [/ilmath] is [ilmath]\cap[/ilmath]-closed [ilmath]\iff[/ilmath] [ilmath]\mathcal{A} [/ilmath] is [ilmath]\cup[/ilmath]-closed
- [ilmath]\mathcal{A} [/ilmath] is [ilmath]\sigma[/ilmath]-[ilmath]\cap[/ilmath]-closed [ilmath]\iff[/ilmath] [ilmath]\mathcal{A} [/ilmath] is [ilmath]\sigma[/ilmath]-[ilmath]\cup[/ilmath]-closed
Proof:
