Baire set
From Encyclopedia of Mathematics
in a locally compact Hausdorff space 
[ 2010 Mathematics Subject Classification MSN: 28A05,(03E15,54H05) | MSCwiki: 28A05 + 03E15,54H05 ]
A set belonging to the 
-ring generated by the class of all compact sets in 
that are 
-sets. A Baire set serves to define the concept of a Baire-measurable function. In all classical particular cases in which measure theory is developed in topological spaces, e.g. in Euclidean spaces, the concept of a Baire set coincides with that of a Borel set.
