In this paper, we show that the conditional expectation of a random variable with finite second moment given a $\sigma$-algebra is the unique critical point of an energy functional in Hilbert space $L^2$. Then, we extend by density the…
Let $\mathfrak A$ be a type 1 subdiagonal algebra in a $\sigma$-finite von Neumann algebra $\mathcal M$ with respect to a faithful normal conditional expectation $\Phi$. We give necessary and sufficient conditions for which $\mathfrak A$ is…
Denote by $\Gamma$ the set of pointwise good sequences. Those are sequences of real numbers $(a_k)$ such that for any measure preserving flow $(U_t)_{t\in \mathbb R}$ on a probability space and for any $f\in L^\infty$, the averages…
We determine when there is a unique conditional expectation from a semifinite von Neumann algebra onto a singly-generated maximal abelian *-subalgebra. Our work extends the results of Kadison and Singer via new methods, notably the…
In this paper, we introduce a large class of (so-called) conditional indicators, on a complete probability space with respect to a sub $\sigma$-algebra. A conditional indicator is a positive mapping, which is not necessary linear, but may…
A necessary and sufficient condition for an element of an algebra (in the sense of Universal Algebra) to be in the dominion of a subalgebra is given, in terms of transferable sets. This criterion is then used to formulate a more wieldy…
We propose a sequential topology on the space of sub-$\sigma$-algebras of a separable probability space $(\Omega,\mathcal{F},\mathbb{P})$ by linking conditional expectations on $L^{2}$ along sequences of sub-$\sigma$-algebras. The varying…
A class of generalized definitions of expectation value is often employed in nonequilibrium statistical mechanics for complex systems. Here, the necessary and sufficient condition is presented for such a class to be stable under small…
We make the simple, and yet deep, observation that a regular conditional distribution (rcd) almost surely trivialises the conditioning $\sigma$-algebra if and only if there exists a "measurable selection" of regular conditional…
Suitable reachability conditions can make two different fixed point semantics of a transition system coincide. For instance, the total and partial expected reward semantics on Markov chains (MCs) coincide whenever the MC at hand is almost…
In this paper, starting from a generalized coherent (i.e. avoiding uniform loss) intervalvalued probability assessment on a finite family of conditional events, we construct conditional probabilities with quasi additive classes of…
We revisit the problem of constructing predictive confidence sets for which we wish to obtain some type of conditional validity. We provide new arguments showing how ``split conformal'' methods achieve near desired coverage levels with high…
Suppose we are given the conditional probability of one variable given some other variables.Normally the full joint distribution over the conditioning variablesis required to determine the probability of the conditioned variable.Under what…
We develop a new method for generating prediction sets that combines the flexibility of conformal methods with an estimate of the conditional distribution $P_{Y \mid X}$. Existing methods, such as conformalized quantile regression and…
We discuss conditional expectations that can be used as generalizations of the partial trace for quantum systems with an infinite-dimensional Hilbert space of states.
We present a form convergence theorem for sequences of sectorial forms and their associated semigroups in a complex Hilbert space. Roughly speaking, the approximating forms $a_n$ are all `bounded below' by the limiting form $a$, but in…
We obtain a set of necessary and sufficient conditions for $| \bar{N}, p_{n} |_{k} $ to imply $|\bar{N}, q_{n} |_{s}$ for $1 < k \leq s < \infty$. Using this result we establish several inclusion theorems as well as conditions for the…
Let $(X,\mathcal{B},m,\tau)$ be a dynamical system with $\ds (X,\mathcal{B},m)$ a probability space and $\ds \tau$ an invertible, measure preserving transformation. The present paper deals with the almost everywhere convergence in…
The paper is a brief informal introduction to C*-algebraic foundations of causal contextual subquantum theories. In particular, it is explained how the contextuality property (which is a necessary consistency condition of all causal…
A conjecture of Talagrand (2010) states that the so-called expectation and fractional expectation thresholds are always within at most some constant factor from each other. In this note we generalize a method of DeMarco and Kahn and settle…
