Definition df-salgen

Description: Define the sigma-algebra generated by a given set. Definition 111G (b) of Fremlin1 p. 13. The sigma-algebra generated by a set is the smallest sigma-algebra, on the same base set, that includes the set, see dfsalgen2 . The base set of the sigma-algebras used for the intersection needs to be the same, otherwise the resulting set is not guaranteed to be a sigma-algebra, as shown in the counterexample salgencntex .
