CatDat

category of measurable spaces

This category is similar to the category of topological spaces. For instance, limits and colimits can be constructed in the same way. However, a main difference is that this category is not infinitary distributive.

Special objects

  • terminal object: singleton set with the unique σ\sigma-algebra
  • initial object: empty set with the unique σ\sigma-algebra
  • products: direct products with the product σ\sigma-algebra
  • coproducts: disjoint union with the obvious σ\sigma-algebra

Special morphisms

  • isomorphisms: bijective measurable maps that map measurable sets to measurable sets
  • monomorphisms: injective measurable maps
  • epimorphisms: surjective measurable maps
  • regular monomorphisms: embeddings
  • regular epimorphisms: A measurable map f:XYf : X \to Y is a regular epimorphism iff ff is surjective and ff is a quotient map, meaning that a subset of YY is measurable when its ff-preimage is measurable.
