Proof: Tao's proof is really clever, let's first try to go through the proof, then discuss how we can come up with it ourselves. | Proof: Tao's proof is really clever, let's first try to go through the proof, then discuss how we can come up with it ourselves. | ||

+ | OK, that shows is measurable. To finish off, we need to show countable addivity | ||
+ | |||
+ | Since , we have from countable sub-addivity. Then, by monotonicity, | ||
+ | |||
+ | since this is true for all , we can sup over , and get | ||

+ | |||
+ | Given a countable collection of measurable set , one need to prove that and are measurable. | ||

+ | Every open set can be written as a finite or countable union of open boxes. | ||

+ | ==== Lemma 7.4.11 ==== | ||
+ | All open sets are measurable. | ||
+ | |||
+ | Since open boxes are measurable, and countable union of measurable sets are measurable. | ||
