205A Homework #2, due Tuesday 11 September. 1. [similar Bill. 2.15] Let B be the Borel subsets of R. For B 2 B dene (B) = 1 if (0; ) B for some  > 0 = 0 if not (a) Show that is not nitely additive on B. (b) Show that is nitely additive but not countably additive on the eld B0 of nite disjoint unions of intervals (a; b]. 2. Show that, in the denition of a probability measure on a measurable space (S; S), we may replace countably additive by itely additive, and satises if An # then (An) ! 0 :  3. [similar Durr. A.2.
