The Topology-Free Construction of the Universal Type Structure for Conditional Probability Systems

open access: yes, 2017
We construct the universal type structure for conditional probability systems without any topological assumption, namely a type structure that is terminal, belief-complete, and non-redundant. In particular, in order to obtain the belief-completeness in a
