Let $(\Omega,\mathcal F,P)$ be a space of probabilities and $(A_n)_n\subseteq \mathcal F.$ Show that
a) if the sequence satisfies $\inf\{P(A_n)_n:n\ge1\}=\alpha,$ with $\alpha\ge0,$ then $P\left( \bigcap\limits_{n=1}^{\infty }{\bigcup\limits_{k=n}^{\infty }{{{A}_{k}}}} \right)\ge \alpha .$
b) if the events $A_1,\ldots,A_n$ satisfy $P\left( \bigcap\limits_{i=1}^{n}{{{A}_{i}}} \right)=1$ then $A_1,\ldots,A_n$ are independent events.
c) If $A,B\in\mathcal F$ then show that $P(A\cap B)\ge P(A)+P(B)-1$
Any ideas to solve a)? For b), I should prove that $P(A_1\cap\cdots\cap A_n)=P(A_1)\cdots P(A_n),$ right? But I don't see how to use the fact I'm given.
As for c), I think I'm missing some property of sets, or any trick there. How to takle it?
Thank you.
