Formulation F10108 on D3889: Tail sigma-algebra
F10108
Formulation 1
Let $X$ be a D11: Set such that
(i) $\mathcal{F}_0, \mathcal{F}_1, \mathcal{F}_2, \ldots \subseteq \mathcal{P}(X)$ are each a D84: Sigma-algebra on $X$
The tail sigma-algebra on $X$ with respect to $\mathcal{F}_0, \mathcal{F}_1, \mathcal{F}_2, \dots$ is the D11: Set \begin{equation} \sigma \left\langle \mathcal{F}_0 \cup \mathcal{F}_1 \cup \cdots \right\rangle \cap \sigma \left\langle \mathcal{F}_1 \cup \mathcal{F}_2 \cup \cdots \right\rangle \cap \sigma \left\langle \mathcal{F}_2 \cup \mathcal{F}_3 \cup \cdots \right\rangle \cdots \end{equation}
