Statement

Let (Ω,F,P)(\Omega,\mathcal{F},P) be a probability space, let N\mathbb{N} be the set of natural numbers, let JNJ\subseteq\mathbb{N} be nonempty, and let (Xm)mJ(X_m)_{m\in J} be an independent family of random variables on it (for J=NJ=\mathbb{N} this is an independent sequence). Let BB be a nonempty set and let (Ib)bB(I_b)_{b\in B} be a family of pairwise disjoint nonempty subsets of JJ.

Then the family of generated σ\sigma-algebras Gb=σ(Xm:mIb)\mathcal{G}_b=\sigma(X_m: m\in I_b), bBb\in B, is independent in the sense of Sigma-Algebra Generated by Random Variables and Independence of Sigma-Algebras.

Consequently, if for each bBb\in B a random variable YbY_b on (Ω,F,P)(\Omega,\mathcal{F},P) is Gb\mathcal{G}_b-measurable, meaning Yb1(B)GbY_b^{-1}(B')\in\mathcal{G}_b for every Borel set BB', then the family (Yb)bB(Y_b)_{b\in B} is independent in the sense of Independence of Events and of Random Variables.
