The Borel σ-algebra of ℝ is the σ-algebra generated by the open sets, hence a σ-algebra; an integrable function is by definition an element of the set of measurable maps into ℝ, whose elements are exactly the measurable maps X → ℝ.
Proof of (i). By Borel Sigma-Algebra of a Metric Space (ii) and Borel Sigma-Algebra of a Metric Space (i),
the -algebra generated by the set of open subsets of , which is a set of subsets of . By Closure Properties of σ-Algebras, Intersections and Traces of σ-Algebras, and the Generated σ-Algebra (iii), taking the set to be , it is a -algebra on , so is a measurable space.
Proof of (ii) and (iii). By Integrable Functions and Their Lebesgue Integral (ii),
(formed for the measurable space of Measure, Measure Space, and Probability Measure (ii) and that of (i)). By Measurable Map, and the Set of Measurable Maps (ii) its elements are exactly the -measurable maps , which gives (ii) and, by Measurable Map, and the Set of Measurable Maps (iii), (iii).
