Integrable and square-integrable functions into RnR^n are by definition measurable maps into RnR^n; a probability space is a measure space, so the square-integrable case applies to it.

Proof

Integrable functions. Let f∈L1(μ;Rn)f\in\mathcal{L}^{1}(\mu;\mathbb{R}^{n}). By Integrable Vector- and Matrix-Valued Functions and Their Integrals (i), f∈Meas(X,F;Rn,B(Rn))f\in\mathrm{Meas}(X,\mathcal{F};\mathbb{R}^{n},\mathcal{B}(\mathbb{R}^{n})), whose elements are the measurable maps X→RnX\to\mathbb{R}^{n} by Measurable Map, and the Set of Measurable Maps (ii) ((Rn,B(Rn))(\mathbb{R}^{n},\mathcal{B}(\mathbb{R}^{n})) being a measurable space as recorded in Measurable Map, and the Set of Measurable Maps); in particular ff is a map f:X→Rnf:X\to\mathbb{R}^{n}. This proves (i).

Square-integrable functions. Let f∈L2(μ;Rn)f\in\mathcal{L}^{2}(\mu;\mathbb{R}^{n}). By Square-Integrable Vector-Valued Functions (ii), the elements of L2(μ;Rn)\mathcal{L}^{2}(\mu;\mathbb{R}^{n}) are measurable maps X→RnX\to\mathbb{R}^{n}; in particular ff is a map f:X→Rnf:X\to\mathbb{R}^{n}. This proves (ii).

The probability case. Let (Ω,A,P)(\Omega,\mathcal{A},P) be a probability space and Z∈L2(P;Rn)Z\in\mathcal{L}^{2}(P;\mathbb{R}^{n}). By Probability Spaces, Events and Random Elements (i), (Ω,A,P)(\Omega,\mathcal{A},P) is a measure space, so (ii), applied to the measure space (Ω,A,P)(\Omega,\mathcal{A},P) in place of (X,F,μ)(X,\mathcal{F},\mu) and to f=Zf=Z, shows that ZZ is a map Z:Ω→RnZ:\Omega\to\mathbb{R}^{n}. This proves (iii).
