Product spaces

  • Define Cartesian product of two sample spaces, measurable rectangles, product \(\sigma\)-algebra, product measure space.

  • Define the cross section of a set and of a function.

  • Proposition 5.1.1 of A&L. Cross sections of sets are in the expected \(\sigma\)-algebras and cross-section functions are measurable.

  • Measures of cross sections are measurable functions. Product measure as it arises from integrating the measure of a cross section. Follow Theorem 5.1.2 of A&L.

Product measures and integration

  • Definition of product measure and product measure space.

  • Tonelli’s Theorem

  • Fubini’s Theorem

  • Integration by parts formula. Follow Theorem 5.2.3 of A&L.

  • Add some examples to the foregoing.
