Exercise 0.11 (Measurable induction)

Let 𝒜 be a collection of subsets of Ω, and let p(E) be a property of subsets E of Ω (thus P(E) is true or false for each E Ω). Assume the following axioms:

1.
P() is true.
2.
If E Ω is such that P(E) is true, then P(ΩE) is also true.
3.
If E1,E2, Ω are such that P(En) is true for all n , then P ( nEn) is true.

Show that if P(E) is true for all E 𝒜 then P(E) is true for all E 𝒜.

Answers

This principle is discussed in detail in Remark 1.4.15 of Terence Tao’s An Introduction To Measure Theory.
