Thanks
[edit]Thanks for elaborating this page. I have relinked to here as much as possible. Now I will take it off my watch list. Good luck! Geometry guy 00:17, 12 February 2007 (UTC)
Attention needed to the definition/examples? [Resolved]
[edit]The first example seems to state that the measure of an arc of the circle is equal to the measure of on the real line, where is the wrap-around function. But has measure .
Should the correct definition define ? Am I missing something?

- No, why? It is written "Let λ also denote the restriction of Lebesgue measure to the interval [0, 2π)". Also f is defined on [0, 2π). Not infinity. Boris Tsirelson (talk) 18:47, 28 June 2017 (UTC)
- I see now. Thank you! Norbornene (talk) 13:29, 9 July 2017 (UTC)
"Random variables are pushforward measures"
[edit]As far as I can see, the following statement is false:
Random variables are pushforward measures
A r.v. defines a pushforward measure, but there is not one-to-one identification. For example, i.i.d r.v.'s define the same pushforward measure , although they are clearly distinct mappings from the probability space to a measurable space . AVM2019 (talk) 12:50, 19 May 2022 (UTC)
