Uniformization/measurable selection theorems

Let $X,Y$ be measurable spaces and $F\subseteq X\times Y$. We say that $f:X\to Y$ is a uniformization map for $F$ if $(x,f(x))\in F$ for each $x\in \pi_X(F)$ where $\pi_X$ is the left projection map. …

Why do we want maps to be measurable (in countably-additive setting)

When I have to explain things that I am doing to people who did not do (or even did not learn) measure-theoretical probability, I think of getting a question in the title, and I am not sure I have arg …

Symmetries of probability distributions

When talking about a single random variable, knowing only its distribution, the construction of a probability space is quite easy. Namely, let $(X,\mathscr A)$ be a measurable space and let $\mathsf Q …

Convex representation of a measure

Let $\mathcal P(X)$ denote the space of all probability measure defined on a measurable space $X$. We canonically endow the former with its own measurability structure, generated by evaluation maps. L …

Convex hulls of families of probability measures

Let $X$ be a standard Borel space, so that the space of Borel probability measures on $X$ is also a standard Borel space. We denote it by $\mathcal P(X)$. In this paper for any family of probability m …

Topological conditions of Kolmogorov Extension Theorem

KET is often used to construct stochastic processes in continuous time when the state space is $\Bbb R^d$. As far as I am familiar with its proof, it uses standard monotonic class-like arguments toget …

Borel kernel over an analytic set implies existence of a Borel map

Let $X$ and $Y$ be standard Borel spaces, and let $A\subseteq X\times Y$ be an analytic set with a full projection on $X$: that is $\pi_X(A) = X$. Suppose that there exists a Borel-measurable kernel $ …

Universally measurable map coincides a.e. with a Borel map

Let $X$ be a standard Borel space: that is, a topological space equivalent to a Borel subset of $\Bbb R$. It is known that for any probability measure $p$ on $X$ and any universally measurable set $A\ …

Coupling of non-probability/sub-probability measures

A coupling of two probability measures $P,\tilde P$ on a Borel space $X$ is any probability measure on $X^2$ whose one-dimensional marginals are $P$ and $\tilde P$. In particular, for any such couplin …

Existence of an universally measurable pullback

Let $X,Y$ and $Z$ be standard Borel spaces: topological spaces homeomorphic to Borel subsets of complete separable metric spaces. Let $K\subseteq X\times Y$ be analytic. Assume that $K_x$ is not emp …

A terminal coalgebra of a certain functor on Mes

Let $\mathfrak C = \mathsf{Mes}$ be the category of meausurable spaces and measurable maps. For any object $X\in \mathfrak C_0$ we assign a measurable space $\mathcal P(X)$ whose elements $\mu$ are pr …

Importance sampling of finite path of stochastic difference equation

Before passing to question, let me briefly recap what's importance sampling of random variables is about. Suppose $\xi$ is a real-valued random variable with density $f$, and let $g:\Bbb R\to \Bbb R$ …

Quotients of standard Borel spaces

Let $X$ and $Y$ be standard Borel spaces: topological spaces homeomorphic to Borel subsets of complete metric spaces. Given a surjective Borel map $f:X\to Y$, we get an equivalence relation $\sim_f\su …

Analytic enlargement of an analytic set

Let $X,Y$ be Borel spaces and $A\subseteq X\times Y$ be an analytic set. Let $\pi:X\times Y \to X$ denote the projection map onto $X$. Does there always exist a set $B$ such that $\pi(B) = X\setminus …

Change of time or change of measure

Consider simple diffusion $dX_t = \sigma dw_t$ and a parameter $a>0$ and $X_0=x$. Let us denote $Y_t = X_{at}$ - thus we made a change of time. Let us denote an original measure as $P$. How to find me …
