# Disintegration theorem

Disintegration theorem In mathematics, the disintegration theorem is a result in measure theory and probability theory. It rigorously defines the idea of a non-trivial "restriction" of a measure to a measure zero subset of the measure space in question. It is related to the existence of conditional probability measures. In a sense, "disintegration" is the opposite process to the construction of a product measure.

Consider the probability measure μ defined on S by the restriction of two-dimensional Lebesgue measure λ2 to S. Questo è, the probability of an event E ⊆ S is simply the area of E. We assume E is a measurable subset of S.

Consider a one-dimensional subset of S such as the line segment Lx = {X} × [0, 1]. Lx has μ-measure zero; every subset of Lx is a μ-null set; since the Lebesgue measure space is a complete measure space, {displaystyle Esubseteq L_{X}implies mu (e)=0.} While true, this is somewhat unsatisfying. It would be nice to say that μ "restricted to" Lx is the one-dimensional Lebesgue measure λ1, rather than the zero measure. The probability of a "two-dimensional" event E could then be obtained as an integral of the one-dimensional probabilities of the vertical "slices" E ∩ Lx: more formally, if μx denotes one-dimensional Lebesgue measure on Lx, poi {displaystyle lui (e)=int _{[0,1]}in _{X}(Ecap L_{X}),matematica {d} X} per ogni "nice" E ⊆ S. The disintegration theorem makes this argument rigorous in the context of measures on metric spaces.

Enunciato del teorema (Hereafter, P(X) will denote the collection of Borel probability measures on a topological space (X, T).) The assumptions of the theorem are as follows: Let Y and X be two Radon spaces (cioè. a topological space such that every Borel probability measure on M is inner regular e.g. separable metric spaces on which every probability measure is a Radon measure). Let μ ∈ P(Y). Let π : Y → X be a Borel-measurable function. Here one should think of π as a function to "disintegrate" Y, in the sense of partitioning Y into {stile di visualizzazione {pi ^{-1}(X) | xin X}} . Per esempio, for the motivating example above, si può definire {stile di visualizzazione pi ((un,b))=a,(un,b)in [0,1]volte [0,1]} , which gives that {displaystyle pi ^{-1}(un)=atimes [0,1]} , a slice we want to capture. Permettere {stile di visualizzazione n } ∈ P(X) be the pushforward measure ν = π∗(m) = μ ∘ π−1. This measure provides the distribution of x (which corresponds to the events {displaystyle pi ^{-1}(X)} ).

The conclusion of the theorem: There exists a {stile di visualizzazione n } -almost everywhere uniquely determined family of probability measures {μx}x∈X ⊆ P(Y), which provides a "disintegration" di {displaystyle lui } in {stile di visualizzazione {in _{X}}_{xin X}} , tale che: the function {displaystyle xmapsto mu _{X}} is Borel measurable, nel senso che {displaystyle xmapsto mu _{X}(B)} is a Borel-measurable function for each Borel-measurable set B ⊆ Y; μx "lives on" the fiber π−1(X): per {stile di visualizzazione n } -almost all x ∈ X, {displaystyle lui _{X}sinistra(Ysetminus pi ^{-1}(X)Giusto)=0,} and so μx(e) = μx(E ∩ π−1(X)); for every Borel-measurable function f : Y → [0, ∞], {displaystyle int _{Y}f(y),matematica {d} in (y)=int _{X}int _{pi ^{-1}(X)}f(y),matematica {d} in _{X}(y)matematica {d} non (X).} In particolare, for any event E ⊆ Y, taking f to be the indicator function of E,[1] {displaystyle lui (e)=int _{X}in _{X}sinistra(Eright),matematica {d} non (X).} Applications Product spaces This section needs additional citations for verification.

(Maggio 2022) (Scopri come e quando rimuovere questo messaggio modello) The original example was a special case of the problem of product spaces, to which the disintegration theorem applies.

When Y is written as a Cartesian product Y = X1 × X2 and πi : Y → Xi is the natural projection, then each fibre π1−1(x1) can be canonically identified with X2 and there exists a Borel family of probability measures {stile di visualizzazione {in _{X_{1}}}_{X_{1}in X_{1}}} in P(X2) (che è (p1)(m)-almost everywhere uniquely determined) tale che {displaystyle mu =int _{X_{1}}in _{X_{1}},mu left(pi_{1}^{-1}(matematica {d} X_{1})Giusto)=int _{X_{1}}in _{X_{1}},matematica {d} (pi_{1})_{*}(in )(X_{1}),} which is in particular[chiarimenti necessari] {displaystyle int _{X_{1}times X_{2}}f(X_{1},X_{2}),in (matematica {d} X_{1},matematica {d} X_{2})=int _{X_{1}}sinistra(int _{X_{2}}f(X_{1},X_{2})in (matematica {d} X_{2}|X_{1})Giusto)mu left(pi_{1}^{-1}(matematica {d} X_{1})Giusto)} e {displaystyle lui (A volte B)=int _{UN}mu left(B|X_{1}Giusto),mu left(pi_{1}^{-1}(matematica {d} X_{1})Giusto).} The relation to conditional expectation is given by the identities {nome dell'operatore dello stile di visualizzazione {e} (f|pi_{1})(X_{1})=int _{X_{2}}f(X_{1},X_{2})in (matematica {d} X_{2}|X_{1}),} {displaystyle lui (A volte B|pi_{1})(X_{1})=1_{UN}(X_{1})cdot mu (B|X_{1}).} Vector calculus The disintegration theorem can also be seen as justifying the use of a "restricted" measure in vector calculus. Per esempio, in Stokes' theorem as applied to a vector field flowing through a compact surface Σ ⊂ R3, it is implicit that the "correct" measure on Σ is the disintegration of three-dimensional Lebesgue measure λ3 on Σ, and that the disintegration of this measure on ∂Σ is the same as the disintegration of λ3 on ∂Σ.[2] Conditional distributions The disintegration theorem can be applied to give a rigorous treatment of conditional probability distributions in statistics, while avoiding purely abstract formulations of conditional probability.[3] See also Ionescu-Tulcea theorem Joint probability distribution – Type of probability distribution Copula (statistics) Conditional expectation – Expected value of a random variable given that certain conditions are known to occur Regular conditional probability References ^ Dellacherie, C.; Meyer, P.-A.
