Main Body


1: Structured Description


Here is the rules of Structured Description.

Entities:
\((M_1, A_1)\): \(\in \{\text{ the measurable spaces }\}\)
\((M''_2, A''_2)\): \(\in \{\text{ the measurable spaces }\}\)
\((M'_2, A'_2)\): \(\in \{\text{ the measurable subspaces of } (M''_2, A''_2)\}\)
\((M_2, A_2)\): \(\in \{\text{ the measurable subspaces of } (M'_2, A'_2)\}\)
\(f\): \(: M_1 \to M_2\), \(\in \{\text{ the measurable maps }\}\)
\(f'\): \(: M_1 \to M'_2, m \mapsto f (m)\)
//

Statements:
\(f' \in \{\text{ the measurable maps }\}\)
//


2: Note


Whether \((M_2, A_2)\) is regarded to be the measurable subspace of \((M'_2, A'_2)\}\) or the measurable subspace of \((M''_2, A''_2)\}\) does not matter, because they are the same by the proposition that in any nest of measurable subspaces, the measurableness of any subset of any measurable space does not depend on the superspace of which the space is regarded to be the subspace.

Of course, \((M'_2, A'_2)\) can be taken to be \((M''_2, A''_2)\), so, the codomain can be expanded to \(M''_2\) to keep the map measurable.


3: Proof


Whole Strategy: Step 1: take any \(a' \in A'\), and see that \(f'^{-1} (a') = f^{-1} (a' \cap M_2)\).

Step 1:

Let \(a' \in A'\) be any.

Let us see that \(f'^{-1} (a') = f^{-1} (a' \cap M_2)\).

For each \(p \in f'^{-1} (a')\), \(f' (p) \in a'\), but \(f' (p) = f (p) \in M_2\), so, \(f (p) \in a' \cap M_2\), so, \(p \in f^{-1} (a' \cap M_2)\).

For each \(p \in f^{-1} (a' \cap M_2)\), \(f (p) \in a' \cap M_2 \subseteq a'\), but \(f (p) = f' (p)\), so, \(p \in f'^{-1} (a')\).

As \(a' \cap M_2 \in A_2\) and \(f\) is measurable, \(f^{-1} (a' \cap M_2) \in A_1\).

So, \(f'\) is measurable.
