Abstract

It is shown that a measurable function from an atomless Loeb probability space (Ω, A, P) to a Polish space is at least continuum-to-one valued almost everywhere. It follows that there is no injective mapping h : [0, 1] → Ω such that h([a, b]) is Loeb measurable for each 0 ≤ a ≤ b ≤ 1 and P(h([0,1])) > 0. Thus, when an atomless Loeb measurable algebra on an internal set of cardinality continuum is imposed on the unit interval [0, 1] through a bijection, it cannot contain the Borel algebra.
