For fixed , define the left-limit sigma-algebra by . The section at of a generating rectangle of the predictable sigma-algebra is when , and empty otherwise. In the first case . Sections of the time-zero generators are empty for .
The collection of subsets of sample-time space whose section at belongs to is a sigma-algebra: sections commute with complements and countable unions. It therefore contains all of . Apply this to for every Borel set . Thus predictable sections at deterministic times satisfyAt the same argument gives -measurability, using the convention . The PDF asks for information strictly before ; the TeX aid drops the minus sign.
