Definition:Extended Real Sigma-Algebra

Definition
Let $\struct {\overline \R, \tau}$ be the extended real number space.

The extended real $\sigma$-algebra $\overline \BB$ is the Borel $\sigma$-algebra $\map \BB {\overline \R, \tau}$.

Also known as
As usual, one may also write sigma-algebra instead of $\sigma$-algebra.
