Cylinder quantity

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

A cylinder set , sometimes called fringe events , is a special set that is used in measure theory , a branch of mathematics . A special case of a cylinder set is a rectangular cylinder . Systems of cylinder sets are used to define product σ-algebras , which in turn form the basis for the definition of product dimensions and product models .

definition

An arbitrary index set , a basic set, is given

as well as the canonical projection for a subset

,

where the restriction to the components is referred to in. Then a lot is called the form

a set of cylinders with a base .

Derived terms

System of cylinder quantities

If a σ-algebra is given on the set , the set system is called

the quantity system of cylinder quantities.

Rectangular cylinder

An element of the σ-algebra can be as Cartesian product of sets in the σ-algebra to write, so

,

this is what one calls a rectangular cylinder with a base . Then you define

as a quantity system of all rectangular cylinders.

properties

One defines the set system

,

so this is a producer of the product σ-algebra of , so it's

.

Likewise, the system of sets that arises from the union of all finite rectangular cylinders is

a producer of the product σ-algebra , so it is

.
