This sourceIt captures and generalises intuitive notions such as length, area, and volume with a set X of 'points' in the space, but regions of the space are the elements of the σ-algebra, since the intuitive measures are not usually defined for points. The algebra also captures the relationships that might be expected of regions: that a region can be defined as an intersection of other regions, a union of other regions, or the space with the exception of another region. ==Definition== Consider a set X and a σ-algebra \mathcal F on X. Then the tuple (X, \mathcal F) is called a measurable space. The elements of \mathcal F are called 'measurable sets' within the measurable space. Note that in contrast to a measure space, no measure is needed for a measurable space. ==Example== Look at the set: X = \{1,2,3\}. One possible \sigma -algebra would be: \mathcal {F}_1 = \{X, \varnothing\}. Then \left(X, \mathcal{F}_1 \right) is a measurable space. Another possible \sigma -algebra would be the power set on X : \mathcal{F}_2 = \mathcal P(X). With this, a second measurable space on the set X is given by \left(X, \mathcal F_2\right). ==Common measurable spaces== If X is finite or countably infinite, the \sigma -algebra is most often the power set on X, so \mathcal{F} = \mathcal P(X). This leads to the measurable space (X, \mathcal P(X)). If X is a topological space, the \sigma -algebra is most commonly the Borel \sigma -algebra \mathcal B, so \mathcal{F} = \mathcal B(X). This leads to the measurable space (X, \mathcal B(X)) that is common for all topological spaces such as the real numbers \R. ==Ambiguity with Borel spaces== The term Borel space is used for different types of measurable spaces. It can refer to any measurable space, so it is a synonym for a measurable space as defined above a measurable space that is Borel isomorphic to a measurable subset of the real numbers (again with the Borel \sigma -algebra) ==See also== * Category of measurable spaces ==References==.
