| + | If we have | ||
| + | * (1) $m^*(A \cap E) \leq m^*(A \cap F_N)$ and | ||
| + | * (2) $m^*(A \RM E) \leq m^*(A \RM F_N)$, | ||
| + | then we can write | ||
| + | $$ m^*(A \cap E) + m^*(A \RM E) \leq m^*(A \cap F_N) + m^*(A \RM F_N) = m^*(A) $$ | ||
| + | but unfortunately, | ||
| + | |||
| + | Try to forget this proof, and come up with your own. It might be fun. | ||

| + | ==== Lemma 7.4.9 ==== | ||
| + | The $\sigma$-algebra property. | ||
| + | |||
| + | Given a countable collection of measurable set $\Omega_j$, one need to prove that $\cup \Omega_j$ and $\cap \Omega_j$ are measurable. | ||
| + | |||
| + | We only need to prove the case of $\Omega = \cup_j \Omega_j$, since the $\cap$ operation can be obtained by taking complement and $\cup$. The hint is to define | ||
| + | $$ \Omega_N = \cup_{j=1}^N \Omega_j$$ | ||
| + | and $E_N = \Omega_N \RM \Omega_{N-1}$, | ||
| + | |||
| + | ==== Lemma 7.4.10 ==== | ||
| + | Every open set can be written as a finite or countable union of open boxes. | ||
| + | |||
| + | I will leave this as discussion problem. | ||
| + | * A subset $U$ is open, if for every point $x \in U$, there exists an open ball $B(x,r) \In U$. | ||
| + | * claim: a subset $U$ is open, iff $\forall x\in U$, there exists an open box $B$, such that $x \in B \In U$. | ||
| + | * claim: a subset $U$ is open, iff $\forall x\in U$, there exists an open box $B$ with rational boundary coordinates, | ||
| + | * There are countably many open boxes with rational boundary coordinates. | ||
| + | |||
| + | ==== Lemma 7.4.11 ==== | ||
| + | All open sets are measurable. | ||
| + | |||
| + | Since open boxes are measurable, and countable union of measurable sets are measurable. | ||
| + | |||
| + | |||
| + | ==== Discussion Problem ==== | ||
| + | An alternative definition for measurable set is the following: | ||
| + | |||
| + | === Def 2 === | ||
| + | A subset $E$ is measurable, if for any $\epsilon> | ||
| + | |||
| + | Can you show that this definition is equivalent to the Caratheodory criterion (the one we had been using)? | ||
