Motivation I
In this lecture we introduce the σ-algebra (or σ-algebra),
which is a fundamentally useful tool in modern probability
and statistics theory.
We will define notions such as probability, probability
space and random variables formally later. Some informal
knowledge about probability is useful for this lecture,
though.
At the intuitive level, a probability is an assessment of how
“likely” a particular set of outcomes might be. In otherwords, a probability is a set function: it takes a set as input,
and then churns out a real number as its output.

Motivation II
Again by our intuition, a probability P should have thefollowing properties:
1 If A, B are two well defined sets of outcomes, we should be
able to “talk about” the probability of A ∩ B , A ∪ B , and Ac orB c .
2 Other important properties such as non-negativity andadditivity which will be introduced later.
In other words, the domain of P is not just any collection of
sets, it must have certain algebraic properties.

Motivation III
If a set function satisfies certain properties, it will be called
a measure. Later we will learn that all valid probabilities
are measures.
An important family of non-probability measure is the
family of Lebesgue measures, which is the usual length for
R1, area for R2, volume for R3, etc.

Why σ-algebras?
Closure under countable infinite union makes it easy to use∞
n =1, or replace the summation operation by integrals.
You can consider it as the Q to R extension: to ensure
taking limit is a valid operation.
Without this we still can talk about the finite step arithmetic
(for Q) or set (for sets) operations, yet we can not utilize
most of the modern mathematical tools (that is, pretty
much every theorem since calculus).

σ-algebras and “information”
Taking as a whole, a σ-algebra represents some kind ofinformation: Some sets are valid, some sets are
“unspeakable”.
Finite case, 2 × 2 diagram: a coarser σ-algebra (minimum
one), and a finer one (row algebra, or the max algebra).The column σ-algebra and the row σ-algebra represents
different information.
k × k grids. A trivial digital photo compression algorithm:
local average. (their out in the wild cousins are designed
with functional transformations, a subject we will brieflytouch when we discuss the characteristic functions.)
Infinite case, stock price prediction as a function of days.

Finite case, 2 × 2 diagram: a coarser σ-algebra (minimum
one), and a finer one (row algebra, or the max algebra).The column σ-algebra and the row σ-algebra represents
different information.
k × k grids. A trivial digital photo compression algorithm:
local average. (their out in the wild cousins are designed
with functional transformations, a subject we will brieflytouch when we discuss the characteristic functions.)
Infinite case, stock price prediction as a function of days.

σ-algebras and “information”
Taking as a whole, a σ-algebra represents some kind ofinformation: Some sets are valid, some sets are
“unspeakable”.
