Let {$X_t, tin[0,1]$} on {$R, mathfrak B(R) $} be random, almost surely continuous, function. How to show that $X^+=sup_{t in[0,1]} X_t$ is random variable ?





Perhaps here I can say that $X_t$ it will be a random variable $forall t$ аnd prove the statement like for random variables ?

          $X^{+}=sup{X_t: 0leq t leq 1,tin mathbb Q}$ outside a null set, so $X^{+}$ is almost everywhere equal to a random variable. So $X^{+}$ is Lebesgue measurable. It need not be measurable w.r.t the Borel sigma field.

          • Thanks for your answer. But I don't understand, why can we say, that $X^+$ is random variable? I would be grateful for any tips.

          • I think you have to look at the source for definitions. A random function is usually defined as a collection of random variables. so it is assumed that each $X_t$ is a random variable. Otherwise there is no hope whatsoever of proving that $X^{+}$ is a random variable.
