Algebra (from the Arabic "al-djebr" meaning "reunion", "connection" or "completion") is a branch of mathematics which may be defined as a generalization and extension of arithmetic.
elementary algebra, where the properties of the real number system are recorded, symbols are used as "place holders" to denote constants and variables, and the rules governing mathematical expressions and equations involving these symbols are studied
abstract algebra, where algebraic structures such as fields, groups, and rings are axiomatically defined and investigated.

The Borel algebra on the reals is the smallest sigma algebra on R which contains all the intervals.
A particularly important example is the Borel sigma algebra (or just Borel algebra) on the set of real numbers.
It is the algebra on which the Borel measure is defined.

 Sigma-algebra
This leads to the most important example: the Borel algebra over any topological space is the σ-algebra generated by the open sets (or, equivalently, by the closed sets).
Note that this σ-algebra is not, in general, the whole power set.
This σ-algebra contains more sets than the Borel algebra on R

It corresponds to a change of representation for the {\it local} algebras, and has nothing to do with the usual fact that in infinite volume (or time) the functional measures with different interactions are disjoint; the latter property is based on ergodicity in time and is a functional measure version of Haag's theorem.
The disjointness of the measure defined by the vacuum on the spectrum of the algebras generated by the variables at fixed time, more generally in {\it bounded\/} time intervals, which is typically related to ultraviolet problems, occurs here for {\it infrared\/} reasons, and one may speak of an {\it infrared renormalization}.
We recall that the Gelfand spectrum of a commutative $C^{*}$ algebra $\B$ (with identity) is the space $\M$ of multiplicative linear functionals $M : \B \to \complessi \, $, with the weak topology defined by $\B$ on $\M$.

As a direct consequence of this compatibility relation for the special case of space translations and of the net structure of the observable algebra appears the net structure also of the field algebra so that no further restrictions on $\alpha$ have to be imposed to guarantee the latter.
To summarize, the time evolution on the fermionic field algebra can be obtained as a naturally extended automorphism from the time evolution of the observable fields only in cases when short range interactions determine the behaviour of the system.
Also, the states are shown to be extendible to the field algebra, inheriting the structure and properties of the states over the algebra of observables.

A result obtained recently (jointly with S. Lempp and R. Solomon) states that the Lindenbaum algebra of the theory of the class M_fin is recursively perfect, namely, it is atomic, while its quotient algebra modulo the Frechet ideal is a Sigma^0_2-universal Boolean algebra.
Some rough estimates show that the Lindenbaum algebras of the classes of models generated by the classes D, F, N, C, A, as well as these classes together with the class P are probably all recursively perfect (estimates of the algorithmic complexity of theories of some combinations of these classes are obtained in [2]).
A numerated Boolean algebra B is called recursively perfect, if a finite sequence of iterated quotients by the Frechet ideal consists of atomic Boolean algebras, except for the last in the sequence, which is a Xi-universal Boolean algebra over some class Xi of a hierarchy.

For a subalgebra $\Cal A \subseteq \Sigma $, let $\Cal A_\sigma $ denote the generated $\sigma $-algebra and $\overline {\Cal A}_s$ denote the {sequential} closure of $\chi (\Cal A) = \{\chi _{{}_{E}}; E\in \Cal A\}$ in $L^1(m)$.
Abstract:Let $X$ be a locally convex space, $m: \Sigma \to X$ be a vector measure defined on a $\sigma $-algebra $\Sigma $, and $L^1(m)$ be the associated (locally convex) space of $m$-integrable functions.
It is shown that $\overline {\Cal A}_s \subseteq \Sigma (m)$ and moreover, that $\{E\in \Sigma ; \chi _{{}_{E}} \in \overline {\Cal A}_s\}$ is always a $\sigma $-algebra and contains $\Cal A_\sigma $.

Here the pair (Sigma, E) defines an abstract data type, and its initial algebra (up to isomorphism) is a canonical model for the abstract type.
They rely on the characterizization of an initial algebra as a Sigma-algebra having exactly one Sigma-homomorphism to any other Sigma-algebra; this is called its universal property.
Everything above about initial algebras generalizes to the case where we consider not just Sigma-algebras, but Sigma-algebras that satisfy a given set E of equations.

The intersection of all $\sigma$-algebras (algebras) containing $\cal J$ is the {\em minimal} $\sigma$-algebra (resp., algebra) containing $\cal J$.
It is called the $\sigma$-algebra (resp., algebra) {\bf generated by} $\cal J$ and denoted by ${\cal B}({\cal J})$ (resp., by ${\cal A}({\cal J})$).\\ A simple but useful fact: if $\cal J$ is finite (countable), then ${\cal A}({\cal J})$ is also finite (countable).\\ \noindent{\sc 1.18 Definition}.
Let ${\cal J}$ be a countable basis in the topology on $X$ and ${\cal A}({\cal J})=\{A_k\}$ a countable algebra of $X$ generated by $\cal J$, see 1.17.

 Wilmott Forums - Sigma-field question - very elementary
For what its worth, its actually somewhat difficult to construct sets that aren't borel measurable (in the borel sigma algebra on the reals.) An example is if you break the reals into equivalence classes where two numbers are equivalent if they differ by a rational number.
Once you get a sigma algebra that contains your set, why to bother making it larger when you are looking for the smallest one?.
and then we complete this set to a sigma algebra using the definition.

One can easily prove that A is a ring in this sense iff A is a commutative ring in the algebraic sense with respect to the operations "intersection of sets" as multiplication and "symmetric difference" as addition.
