By Example 1.4.13, there is a well-ordered set and a bijection such that for any has at most a countable number of predecessors. Let be the set of points in such that precedes , and let . Prove that (8.9) is not true for with Lebesgue measure. Explain why it does not contradict Theorem 8.2.1.
Theorem 8.2.1, with formulas (8.8) and (8.9): Let and be -finite measure spaces and let . If and (formula (8.8)), where and , then is -measurable, is -measurable and
which is equivalent to .
