Measurable function: checking every preimage by complete enumeration, with composition, indicators and the image-set trap
X={0,1,2,3}, Σ_X={∅,{0,1},{2,3},X}; Y={0,1,2}, Σ_Y={∅,{0},{1,2},Y}; Z={0,1} with Σ_Z the power set. (1) Prove by complete enumeration that f=(0↦0,1↦0,2↦1,3↦2) is measurable and g=(0↦0,1↦1,2↦1,3↦2) is not; (2) prove that a composite of measurable maps is measurable, and read φ∘f back as an indicator function; (3) prove that an indicator 1_E is measurable exactly when E∈Σ_X; (4) use m and k to show that 'checking images' can both wrongly reject and wrongly accept.
