Topological extensions of elementary measurable spaces

Abstract

An elementary space is a pair (X, π’œ), where π’œ is an algebra of subsets of X. Every elementary space (X, π’œ) is naturally a topological space when equipped with the topology Ο„π’œ generated by π’œ. Elementary mappings on elementary spaces are defined in a manner analogous to measurable mappings on measurable spaces. In addition, the notion of an {\it extension} of an elementary space is introduced. Let M(X, π’œ), denote the ring of all real-valued elementary functions on (X, π’œ). In this article, we study the ring M(X, π’œ) and extensions of an elementary space. We show that, for any elementary space (X, π’œ), there exists a unique compact elementary extension (Ξ²π’œX, π’œΜ…) of X, analogous to the Stone-check Cech compactification, which contains every other extension of X. This extension has the property that every elementary map from X into any compact topological space extends continuously to Ξ²π’œX. Next, we show that Ξ²π’œX contains a realcompact extension (Ο…π’œX, π’œΜ…R) of X, such that every elementary map from X into any realcompact topological space extends continuously to Ο…π’œX. Moreover, Ο…π’œX is the smallest realcompact extension of X and (X, π’œ) is realcompact if and only if X=Ο…π’œX. Also, we see that, every metric space equipped with the Οƒ-algebra of all Borel sets is realcompact. Finally, we observe that the maximal ring of quotients of M(X, π’œ) is the direct limit of locally constant (continuous) functions on dense open subsets of (X, Ο„π’œ). Some questions raised in the literature are also answered.

AB  - An elementary space is a pair (X, π’œ), where π’œ is an algebra of subsets of X. Every elementary space (X, π’œ) is naturally a topological space when equipped with the topology Ο„_π’œ generated by π’œ. Elementary mappings on elementary spaces are defined in a manner analogous to measurable mappings on measurable spaces. In addition, the notion of an {\it extension} of an elementary space is introduced. Let M(X, π’œ), denote the ring of all real-valued elementary functions on (X, π’œ). In this article, we study the ring M(X, π’œ) and extensions of an elementary space. We show that, for any elementary space (X, π’œ), there exists a unique compact elementary extension (Ξ²_π’œX, π’œΜ…) of X, analogous to the Stone-check Cech compactification, which contains every other extension of X. This extension has the property that every elementary map from X into any compact topological space extends continuously to Ξ²_π’œX. Next, we show that Ξ²_π’œX contains a realcompact extension (Ο…_π’œX, π’œΜ…_R) of X, such that every elementary map from X into any realcompact topological space extends continuously to Ο…_π’œX. Moreover, Ο…_π’œX is the smallest realcompact extension of X and (X, π’œ) is realcompact if and only if X=Ο…_π’œX. Also, we see that, every metric space equipped with the Οƒ-algebra of all Borel sets is realcompact. Finally, we observe that the maximal ring of quotients of M(X, π’œ) is the direct limit of locally constant (continuous) functions on dense open subsets of (X, Ο„_π’œ). Some questions raised in the literature are also answered.
