On Borel measurability and large deviations for fuzzy random variables (Q853427)

A fuzzy random variable is defined to be a mapping from a measurable space to the space of upper semicontinuous fuzzy sets having compact support and non-empty \(1\)-level sets which is non-separable wrt d-infinity-metric. Two measurability notions are used in the literature: The so-called levelwise measurability and the \((d\)-infinity) Borel measurability, where levelwise measurability is the weaker one. The author presents necessary and sufficient conditions for equivalence of both measurability notions. These conditions are formulated e.g. in terms of the set of discontinuities of the level mappings. Besides, a certain generalization of the large deviation principle of Bolthausen is given.
