Is a not empty subset of a unmeasurable set a unmeasurable set?

$begingroup$


We have a measurable space $(Omega, mathbb{A})$. I want to prove the following statement about random vectors



$$X=(X_1, ..., X_k) hbox{ is a random vector iff } X_i hbox{ is a random variable } forall i = 1,...,k $$



For this, I want to use only the following definition: $X:Omega to mathbb{R}^k$ is a random vector (random variable if $k = 1$) if $[X subset B] in mathbb{A}$, for all $B = B(q,r)= {y in mathbb{R}^k : d_{max}(q,y) < r}$, whith $(q,r) in mathbb{Q}^k times mathbb{Q}$. In other words, I want to use the fact that $mathbb{R}^k$ and its topology have a countable base. In addition, we know that:



$$B(q,r) = Pi_{i = 1}^k (q_i - r, q_i + r)$$
and



$$[X in B(q,r)] = [q_1 - r < X_1 < q_1 + r, ..., q_k - r < X_k < q_k + r] = bigcap_{i = 1}^k [q_i - r < X_i < q_i + r]$$



With this in hand, I would like to prove the most difficult implication: $(implies)$. For this, take a randoms $x in mathbb{Q}^k$ and $rin mathbb{Q}$ and suppose that $[q_i - r < X_i < q_i + r] notin mathbb{A}$ for some $i$. Since that:



$$[X in B(q,r)] subset [q_i - r < X_i < q_i + r]$$



I want to prove the following fact: if $B notin mathbb{A}$ and $A subset B$, $A neq emptyset$, then $A notin mathbb{A}$. With this, I can get some contradiction. Is it true?

Certainly your claim is false, as pointed out by Alessandro Codenotti. Use the fact that $B(q,r)$ can be written as countable union of sets of the form $[a_1,b_1] times [a_2,b_2] times cdots times [a_k,b_k]$ to prove that $X$ is measurable if each $X_i$ is.
