proof of equivalent definitions of analytic sets for measurable spaces


Let (X,) be a measurable spaceMathworldPlanetmathPlanetmath and A be a subset of X. For any uncountable Polish spaceMathworldPlanetmath Y with Borel σ-algebra (http://planetmath.org/BorelSigmaAlgebra) , we show that the following are equivalentMathworldPlanetmathPlanetmathPlanetmathPlanetmathPlanetmath.

  1. 1.

    A is -analytic (http://planetmath.org/AnalyticSet2).

  2. 2.

    A is the projection (http://planetmath.org/GeneralizedCartesianProduct) of a set S onto X.

Here, denotes the productPlanetmathPlanetmathPlanetmath σ-algebra (http://planetmath.org/ProductSigmaAlgebra) of and .

(1) implies (2): Let 𝒢 denote the paving consisting of the closed subsets of Y. If A is -analytic then there exists a set S(×𝒢)σδ such that A=πX(S), where πX:X×YX is the projection map (see proof of equivalent definitions of analytic sets for paved spaces). In particular, 𝒢 implies that S is contained in the σ-algebra .

(2) implies (1): This is an immediate consequence of the result that projections of analytic sets are analytic.
