Good examples of random variables whose image is not a measurable set?

Are their simple/natural examples of real-valued Borel-measurable random variables whose image is not a Borel set? Something that occurs "naturally"? I am teaching Doob's lemma (for two real-valued ...

Measurability of Markov kernel wrt the Borel $\sigma$-algebra generated by the weak topology

Consider two Polish metric probability spaces $(\mathcal{A}, \Sigma_\mathcal{A})$ and $(\mathcal{B}, \Sigma_\mathcal{B})$, endowed with their Borel $\sigma$-algebras. Denote as $\mathcal{P}_\mathcal{B}...

Is the following "section-wise" defined function measurable in the product space?

I asked this question in mathstackexchange a couple of days ago. Almost right after posing it a partial (affirmative) answer came to my mind in the following form Proposition: Assume that $(X,\...

Let $c: X \times Y \to \overline{\mathbb R}$ be $\gamma$-measurable. Is $c_x:Y \to \overline{\mathbb R}, y \mapsto c(x, y)$ $\nu$-measurable?

Let $(X, \mathcal X, \mu)$ and $(Y, \mathcal Y, \nu)$ be $\sigma$-finite measure spaces. Let $\overline{\mathbb R} := \mathbb R \cup \{\pm \infty\}$. $f:X \to \overline{\mathbb R}$ is called $\mu$-...

$f \in L^2(X\times Y,\mu \times K)$ for Kernel $K$, is the map $X \ni x \mapsto (f(x,\cdot),x) \in \bigsqcup_{x \in X}L^2(Y,\Sigma_Y,K_x)$ measurable?

Let $(X,\Sigma_X)$ and $(Y,\Sigma_Y)$ be two measurable spaces, let $\mu$ be a measure on $(X,\Sigma_X)$, and let $(K_x)_{x \in X}$ be a transition kernel from $(X,\Sigma_X)$ to $(Y,\Sigma_Y)$, that ...

Measurability in a product space of a set defined only along its fibers

Consider the probability space $([0,1],\mathcal{B}([0,1]),\lambda)$, where $\mathcal{B}([0,1])$ denotes the Borel $\sigma$-algebra in $[0,1]$ and $\lambda$ is the Lebesgue measure in $[0,1]$. Then, ...

Transport of measure

Let's disintegrate $\mu$ and $\nu$, two probabilities on $\mathbb{R}^{d}$ , according to $$ \pi_{k} (x_{1},...,x_{d}) = (x_{k},...,x_{d}) $$ We get a family of measures and each measure $\mu_{k,d}^{+...

Measurable Extension

Let $(\Omega, \mathcal{F})$ be a measurable space and $X$ some metric space (probably Polish) with the Borel $\sigma$-algebra and a function $f: \Omega \times X \to \mathbb{R}$. Usually, functions ...
