()\mathcal{B}(\mathbb{R})


()=σ(𝒞)\mathcal{B}(\mathbb{R}) = \sigma(\mathcal{C}), for any of the following sets 𝒞\mathcal{C}:

  1. {(a,b]:ab<} \{ (a,b] : -\infty \leq a \leq b \lt \infty \}
  2. {(a,b):ab} \{ (a,b) : -\infty \leq a \leq b \leq \infty \}
  3. {(,x]:x} \{ (-\infty,x] : x \in \mathbb{R} \}
  4. {A:A is an open subset of } \{ A : A \textrm{ is an open subset of } \mathbb{R} \}
