A conditional 0-1 law for the symmetric sigma-field
Abstract
Description
Let (Ω,\mathcal{B},P) be a probability space, \mathcal{A} a sub-sigma-field of \mathcal{B}, and μa regular conditional distribution for P given \mathcal{A}. For various, classically interesting, choices of \mathcal{A} (including tail and symmetric) the following 0-1 law is proved: There is a set A_0 in \mathcal{A} such that P(A_0)=1 and μ(ω)(A) is 0 or 1 for all A in \mathcal{A} and ωin A_0. Provided \mathcal{B} is countably generated (and certain regular conditional distributions exist), the result applies whatever P is.
