Cylindrical σ-algebra

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

In mathematics — specifically, in measure theory and functional analysis — the cylindrical σ-algebra[1] or product σ-algebra[2][3] is a type of σ-algebra which is often used when studying product measures or probability measures of random variables on Banach spaces.

For a product space, the cylinder σ-algebra is the one that is generated by cylinder sets.

In the context of a Banach space the cylindrical σ-algebra is defined to be the coarsest σ-algebra (that is, the one with the fewest measurable sets) such that every continuous linear function on is a measurable function. In general, is not the same as the Borel σ-algebra on which is the coarsest σ-algebra that contains all open subsets of
