Question about Monotone Class implies Sigma Field

211 Views Asked by At

I'm trying to solve this exercise from Resnick "A Probability Path" (1.41) and found the answer on the topic bellow,

A field being a sigma field if and only if it's a monotone class

Therefore, the answer on this topic is about the third postulate of Sigma-field, that says if A1,A2,... belongs to class A implies that the union (or intersection) also belongs.

My question is: How to prove the postulates one and two?

(i) $\Omega$ belongs to class A

(ii) If An belongs to class A implies An complement belongs to class A.

Thanks for help
