Existence of disintegrations for improper priors on locally-compact groups

Ok I think I've got it, following the partition argument indicated by Michael Greinecker in the comments above. Thank you Michael! Please let me know if you spot any errors. Lemma. Let $G$ be a locall …

Existence of disintegrations for improper priors on locally-compact groups

In wide generality, the disintegration theorem says that Radon probability measures admit disintegrations. I'm trying to understand the case when we weaken this to infinite measures, specifically infi …

Finiteness of "novel variance" from a kernel on a compact space [closed]

Let $c(i,i')$ be a kernel function on a reasonable index space $I$. Choose a dense sequence of points $\{i_1, i_2, \cdots \} \subseteq I$, and define the one-point kernel functions $k_n := c(\cdot, i_ …

Measures which exhibit the "uncorrelated implies independent" property

Let $X$ be a topological linear space, and let $X^*$ be its dual space. Suppose that $X$ is complete and Hausdorff, and $X^*$ separates points. Let $Y$ be another such space, and let $f : X \to Y$ be …

Smooth but non-analytic kernel functions

Does there exist a (stationary) covariance kernel function which is $C^\infty$-smooth but not real analytic? If so, could you please provide an example?

If Gaussian measures on a Hilbert space converge weakly to 0, how do their covariance operat...

Let $X$ be a separable Banach space, and let $\theta \mapsto \mathbb P_\theta$ be a weakly-continuous family of Radon probability measures. Suppose that each $\mathbb P_\theta$ admits a mean vector $\ …

Cameron-Martin theorem for non-Gaussian measures

Let $X$ be a locally convex topological linear space, and $\mathbb P$ be a probability measure on $X$. Denote the mean vector $m \in X$ and covariance operator $k : X^* \to X$. Let $\tau_u : X \to X$ …

Density of linear functionals in $L^2$

Let $X$ be a locally convex topological linear space, and let $\mathbb P$ be a probability measure on $X$. Suppose that $\operatorname{var}(\varphi) < \infty$ for all continuous linear functionals $\v …

Is every covariance operator the covariance of a measure?

Let $X$ be a topological linear space over $\mathbb R$ which is complete and Hausdorff with a dual space that separates points. Let $k : X^* \to X$ be an arbitrary covariance operator. i.e., any conti …

Probability measures on $L^p$

Let $(X,\mathcal X,\mu)$ be a fixed measure space, and suppose that $\mu$ is stationary and ergodic with respect to the (left) action of a topological group $G$. Stationarity means that $\mu = g_* \mu …

A non-trivial probability measure on $2^{\mathbb R}$

Consider the measurable space $2^{\mathbb R}$, equipped with the tensor-product $\sigma$-algebra. Famously, this space has a measurable structure which is not generated by a topology (see this answer) …

Statistical models in terms of families of random variables

A statistical model is a function $P : \Theta \to \Delta(X)$, where $\Theta$ is a parameter space, and $\Delta(X)$ is the set of probability measures on a state space $X$. Suppose that $\Theta$ and $ …

Measure theory in nuclear spaces

Much of the literature on measure theory in linear spaces focuses on the case of normed linear spaces (e.g., the outstanding book by Vakhania, or its sequel). However, nuclear linear spaces "as far fr …

Is this a closed set?

Let $\Theta$ and $X$ be two (Hausdorff) topological spaces. Let $\mathbb P : \Theta \to \Delta(X)$ be a "statistical model", i.e., a continuous function from parameter space $\Theta$ to the space of p …
