Statement

For a subset AA of the real line R\mathbb{R} write −A={−x:x∈A}-A=\{-x:x\in A\}. Let λ∗\lambda^{*} be the Lebesgue outer measure, λ\lambda Lebesgue measure, B(R)\mathcal{B}(\mathbb{R}) the Borel σ\sigma-algebra, and NN the standard normal distribution. Then:

1. (Reflection invariance of Lebesgue measure) For every A⊆RA\subseteq\mathbb{R}, λ∗(−A)=λ∗(A)\lambda^{*}(-A)=\lambda^{*}(A). For every Borel set BB, the reflected set −B-B is Borel and λ(−B)=λ(B)\lambda(-B)=\lambda(B).

2. (Reflection invariance of the standard normal distribution) For every Borel set BB,

N(−B)=N(B).N(-B)=N(B).

3. (Symmetry) If ZZ is a standard normal random variable on a probability space, then −Z-Z is a standard normal random variable.
