A [[measurable space|Borel space]] is called '''analytic''' if it is [[Measurable space#separated|countably separated]] and [[Measurable space#isomorphic|isomorphic]] to a [[Measurable space#quotient space|quotient space]] of a [[Standard Borel space|standard]] Borel space.
 
 
See below for an equivalent definition.
 
 
Finite and countable analytic Borel spaces are trivial: all subsets are measurable. Uncountable
 
analytic Borel spaces are of [[Continuum, cardinality of the|cardinality continuum]]. Some, but not all, of them are standard; these are mutually isomorphic. Some additional (to [[ZFC]]) set-theoretic axioms imply that all nonstandard analytic Borel spaces are mutually isomorphic (see [1, Sect. 26.D]).
 
 
''Non-example.'' The [[quotient group]] $\R/\Q$ (real numbers modulo rational numbers, additive) may be thought of as a quotient measurable space, $\R$ being endowed with its Borel σ-algebra. Then $\R/\Q$ is a quotient space of a standard Borel space, but not an analytic Borel space, because it is not countably separated. (See [2, Sect. 5].)
 
 
====Relations to analytic sets====
 
 
A subset of a standard Borel (or just countably separated measurable) space is called ''analytic'' if it is the image of a standard Borel space under a Borel map. (See [1, Sect. 14.A].)
 
 
As every subset of a measurable space, an analytic set is itself a measurable space (a
 
[[Measurable space#subspace|subspace]] of the given space).
 
 
'''Definition 2''' (equivalent).
 
A Borel space is called ''analytic'' if it is isomorphic to an analytic set.
 
 
Equivalence of the two definitions follows from the [[Standard Borel space#Blackwell-Mackey theorem|Blackwell-Mackey theorem]] and the following simple fact: every countably separated measurable space admits a one-to-one measurable map to a standard Borel space.
 
 
See [1, Sect. 25.A], [2, Sect. 4] for these, and some other, definitions of analytic sets and spaces.
 
 
====Measurable injections====
 
 
Several [[Standard Borel space#Measurable injections|results on standard Borel spaces]] generalize to analytic Borel spaces (see [2, Sect. 4], [3, Sect. 4.5]).
 
 
'''Theorem 1a.''' If a bijective map between analytic Borel spaces is measurable then the inverse map is also measurable.
 
 
'''Theorem 1b.''' If σ-algebras $\A$, $\B$ on $X$ are such that $\A\subset\B$ and $(X,\A)$, $(X,\B)$ are analytic then $\A=\B$.
 
 
''Example.'' The real line with the Lebesgue σ-algebra is not analytic (by Theorem 1b).
 
 
'''Theorem 2a.''' If a bijective map  from an analytic Borel space to a countably separated measurable space  is measurable then the inverse map is also measurable.
 
 
'''Theorem 2b.''' If σ-algebras $\A$, $\B$ on $X$ are such that $\A\subset\B$,  $(X,\A)$ is countably separated and $(X,\B)$ is analytic then $\A=\B$.
 
 
'''Theorem 2c.''' If $(X,\A)$ is an analytic Borel space then $\A$ is generated by  every at most countable [[Measurable space#separating|separating]] subset of $\A$.
 
 
The Blackwell-Mackey theorem generalizes readily from standard to analytic spaces, since a quotient space of an analytic space evidently is also a quotient space of a standard space.
