Extension set by Kolmogorov
The Kolmogorov extension theorem , sometimes Kolmogorov'scher extension kit , set of Kolmogorov or existence theorem of Kolmogorov called, is a central existence theorem of probability theory . The statement is ascribed to Andrei Nikolajewitsch Kolmogorow , but also called the theorem of Daniell-Kolmogorov , since it was already proven in 1919 by Percy John Daniell in a non-stochastic formulation.
The theorem provides the existence of probability measures on uncountable product spaces and is therefore essential for the existence of stochastic processes , countable and uncountable product measures and independently identically distributed random variables .
statement
Given a non-empty index set and Borel spaces for . Let be the set of all non-empty, finite subsets of . If a projective family of probability measures is given, then there is a clearly defined probability measure in the measurement space
for which applies to everyone . The projection on the components of the index set denotes . Then you write
and then designates the probability measure as the projective limit .
Example: Product dimensions on uncountable products
If one considers an uncountable index set as well as Borel spaces , each provided with a probability measure for all , then the product measure for anything can be found on finite products
construct in the conventional way of mass theory. The family of product measures but projective and thus be a unique probability measure after the above sentence on
continue. The set of Andersen Jessen delivers a more general statement on the existence of any product dimensions, can be dispensed with in the use of Borel spaces.
