Suppose X is a random variable and \mu is its probability measure, we define its expectation \mathbb{E}[X] by: \mathbb{E}[X] = \int_{\mathbb{R}}x \mu(\mathrm{d}x) We have the following properties of the expectation: \mathbb{E}[X] is finite if and only if \mathbb{E}[|X...

(1) Discrete random variable (2) Continuous random variable. Discrete Random Variable Adiscrete random variable is one in which the set of all possible values is at most a finite or a countably infinite number. (Countably infinite means that all possible value of the random variable can be...
A random variable is a rule that assigns a numeric value to every possible outcome in a sample space. Random variables may be discrete or continuous in nature. A random variable is discrete if it assumes only discrete values within a specified interval.
We introduce and study the notion of k-divisible elements in anon-commutative probability space. A k-divisible element is a (non-commutative)random variable whose n-th moment vanishes whenever n is not a multiple of k.First, we consider the combinatorial convolution \ast in the lattices NC of...
In this case we also say that X has a continuous distribution, and the integrand f : R → R is called a frequency of the random variable X . Let again (Ω, F , P ) be a given probability field. Let us consider two random variables X and Y , which are both defined on Ω...
A typical example of a random variable is the outcome of a coin toss. Consider a probability distribution in which the outcomes of a random event are not equally likely to happen. If the random variable Y is the number of heads we get from tossing two coins, then Y could be 0, 1, o...
(a): Proof: E[aX+b] = Sum π(axi +b) = Sum (π (axi) + π (b)) = Sum (π axi)+ Sum ( π b) = aSum (π xi)+ bSum ( π), Sum( π) = 1,所以 Sumaxi = aSxi = aE[X] + b(b) ProofVar(X) = E([X-E(X)]2= E(X2)-2XE(X) + E(X)2, x=E(x)= ...
It first discusses the probability space, and the conditional probability and independence. The chapter then introduces the concept of the random variable with an example. A random variable that takes integer values is called a discrete random variable. A random variable that takes values in R is...
