Let X and Y be B-measurable and integrable r.v.s. We further assume that (B X dP ( (BY dP for every B ( B (( A). Then show that X ( Y a.s.
By setting Z = Y - X, we have (B Z dP ( 0 for all B ( B, and we wish to conclude that Z ( 0 a.s. Set C = (Z ( 0) and D = (Z > 0) (= Cc). Then it suffices to show that P(D) = 0. By taking B = D, we have (D Z dP ( 0 and (D Z dP = ((Z ID) dP ( 0 since Z > 0 on D, so that (D Z dP = 0. Thus, it suffices to show that, if for a r.v. Z with D = (Z > 0) it holds that (D Z dP = 0, then P(D) = 0. This can be done through the four familiar steps?
