Monotone class definition

149 Views Asked by At

I've been presented with a definition of monotone classes that I was unfamiliar with : a subset of the power set containing the entire space, closed under countable increasing union and difference between two ordered subsets. I would have thought that it was equivalent to the other definition saying that it was closed under countable monotone unions and intersections. I can't manage to prove it.... is it true ? Thx
