Exchangeability and de Finetti’s theorem

5 Common Ending

All three proofs converge to the same final step: extending from indicators to general sets via a monotone class argument.

Lemma 47 \(\pi \)-system uniqueness

Measures on product spaces are determined by their finite-dimensional marginals.

Theorem 48 Monotone class theorem

The monotone class theorem allows extending from indicators to measurable functions.

Theorem 49 Conditional independence extension

Conditional independence on indicators extends to the full product \(\sigma \)-algebra.
