For a Tychonoff space $X$, the constructions $\hat P(X)$ and $P_\tau(X)$ of the spaces of probability Radon measures and probability $\tau$-smooth measures on $X$ are considered. It is proved that these constructions determine functors in…

Given a compact space $K$, we denote by $P(K)$ the space of all Radon probability measures on $K$, equipped with the $weak^\ast$ topology inherited from $C(K)^\ast$. For nonmetrizable compacta $K$ even basic properties of $P(K)$ spaces…

Lindel\"of spaces are studied in any basic Topology course. However, there are other interesting covering properties with similar behaviour, such as almost Lindel\"of, weakly Lindel\"of, and quasi-Lindel\"of, that have been considered in…

I explain the difficulty of making various concepts of and relating to probability precise, rigorous and physically significant when attempting to apply them in reasoning about objects (e.g., spacetimes) living in infinite-dimensional…

We give a categorical treatment, in the spirit of Baez and Fritz, of relative entropy for probability distributions defined on standard Borel spaces. We define a category suitable for reasoning about statistical inference on standard Borel…

The paper is devoted to a categorical study of the category of probabilistic metric spaces. The study is based on an isomorphic description of the category of probabilistic metric spaces. The isomorphic description was obtained in [3] and…
