Let X be a set and A a σ-algebra of subsets of X.
(a) A function f : X → R is measurable if the set {x ∈ X : f(x) > λ} belongs to A for every real number λ. Show that this holds if and only if the set {x ∈ X : f(x) ≥ λ} belongs to A for every λ ∈ R. (b) Let f : X → R be a function.
(i) Show that if f is measurable then the function f 2 is measurable.
(ii) Give an example to show that the converse of (i) is false.
(iii) Explain how (i) is used to prove that the product of two measurable functions is measurable.
