Stochastic independence in non-commutative probability theory

open access: closedMathematical Proceedings of the Cambridge Philosophical Society, 1979
AbstractFor a family {Xα} of random variables over a probability space , stochastic independence can be formulated in terms of factorization properties of characteristic functions. This idea is reformulated for a family {Aα} of selfadjoint operators over a probability gage space and is shown to be inappropriate as a non-commutative generalization ...

Conditional independence in probability theory on MV-algebras

open access: closedSoft Computing, 2003
Conditional independence relation of observables on an MV-algebra with product is formulated and basic properties are proven. An analogy with a classical definition of conditional independence of random variables is discussed and the MV-algebraic concept of conditioning is further explored.

Statistical Independence and Kolmogorov’s Probability Theory

open access: closed, 1998
Independently repeated experiments with random outcomes have a formal counter-part in the mathematical concept of statistical independence. The cleanest way to introduce the latter can be found within the framework of Kolmogorov’s axiomatic probability theory which, since the 1930s, became the standard, and by far most widespread, mathematical model of

Conditional probabilities and statistical independence in quantum theory

open access: closedJournal of Mathematical Physics, 1978
The problem of defining conditional probabilities and the notion of statistical independence in quantum theory is analyzed. It is shown that (unlike in classical probability theory) the conditional probabilities of a given set of events can be determined only if the sequence of all the experiments performed on the system is also specified.

Independent events in elementary probability theory

International Journal of Mathematical Education in Science and Technology, 2011
In Probability and Statistics taught to mathematicians as a first introduction or to a non-mathematical audience, joint independence of events is introduced by requiring that the multiplication rule is satisfied. The following statement is usually tacitly assumed to hold (and, at best, intuitively motivated): If the n events E 1, E 2, … , E n are ...
