Abstract: Abstract This chapter lays the probabilistic groundwork for the rest of the book. We introduce standard probability theory. We call the elements A of the σ-algebra “propositions” instead of “events”, which would be more common. We reserve the word “event” for the elements of the probability space Ω.
