Main Body


1: Structured Description


Here is the rules of Structured Description.

Entities:
\( (M', A')\): \(\in \{\text{ the measurable spaces }\}\)
\( M\): \(\subseteq M'\)
\(*A\): \(= \{W' \cap M \vert W' \in A'\}\)
//

Conditions:
//


2: Natural Language Description


For any measurable space, \((M', A')\), and any subset, \(M \subseteq M'\), \(A: = \{W' \cap M \vert W' \in A'\}\)


3: Note


\(A\) is indeed a \(\sigma\)-algebra of \(M\): 1) \(M = M' \cap M \in A\), because \(M' \in A'\); 2) for each \(W \in A\), \(M \setminus W \in A\), because \(M \setminus W = M \setminus (W' \cap M) = (M' \setminus W') \cap M\), by the proposition that the intersection of any set minus any set and any set is the intersection of the 1st set and the 3rd set minus the intersection of the 2nd set and the 3rd set, and \(M' \setminus W' \in A'\); 3) for each infinite sequence, \(W_1, W_2, ...\), where \(W_j \in A\), \(\cup_j W_j \in A\), because \(\cup_j W_j = \cup_j (W'_j \cap M) = (\cup_j W'_j) \cap M\), by the proposition that for any set, the intersection of the union of any possibly uncountable number of subsets and any subset is the union of the intersections of each of the subsets and the latter subset, and \(\cup_j W'_j \in A'\).
