Definition 7.1 (Measurable sets and Lebesgue measure axioms): for n ∈ ℕ, a collection
M ⊆ 𝒫(ℝ^n) and a function m : M → [0, +∞] (modeled here as
m : Set (Fin n → ℝ) → ENNReal) satisfy:
(i) every open set belongs to M;
(ii) M is closed under complements;
(iv) M is closed under countable unions and countable intersections;
(v) m(∅) = 0;
(vi) 0 ≤ m(Ω) ≤ +∞ for all Ω ∈ M;
(xi) countable additivity on pairwise disjoint measurable families;
(xii) m([0,1]^n) = 1;
(xiii) translation invariance: x + Ω is measurable and has the same measure.

Theorem 7.1 (Existence of Lebesgue measure): for each dimension n, there exist a
σ-algebra M ⊆ 𝒫(ℝ^n) and a function m : M → [0,+∞] (modeled as
m : Set (Fin n → ℝ) → ENNReal) satisfying the Borel property, complementarity,
closure under countable unions and intersections, m(∅) = 0, positivity,
countable additivity on pairwise disjoint families, normalization m([0,1]^n) = 1,
and translation invariance.
