Let us say that we have some set of independent random variables: X = { X i } i = 1 n defined over a probability space of   ( Ω , F , P ). I want to understand whether the following holds:
If F X = σ ( { X 1 , X 2 , , X n } ) , then is it, in general, true that: | F X | = i I n | σ ( { X i } ) | ?
As we know, as X consists of independent R.V.-s, then we can state that i , j I n : σ ( { X i } ) and σ ( { X j } ) are independent. But how to proceed from this fact to the split of the cardinality of F X ?
I would appreciate any help, thank you in advance!

It should not be that hard to show then that in general the proposed cardinality relation does not hold!
