On the effect of perturbation of conditional probabilities in total variation

Probability 2014-07-23 v1

Abstract

A celebrated result by A. Ionescu Tulcea provides a construction of a probability measure on a product space given a sequence of regular conditional probabilities. We study how the perturbations of the latter in the total variation metric affect the resulting product probability measure.
