The Conditional Law of the Head Given the Tail for a Measure with a Density Relative to a Diagonal Gaussian Measure on a Hilbert Space

For a probability measure with a density with respect to a diagonal Gaussian measure on a Hilbert space, the conditional law of the first n coordinates given the tail is, for almost every tail, the n-dimensional diagonal Gaussian reweighted by the density along the fibre and normalised; in particular it vanishes on Lebesgue-null sets.

Statement

In the setting of Borel Probability Measures on a Real Hilbert Space with an Orthonormal Basis: Standing Notation, with pnp_{n}, pn∗p_{n}^{*} and QnQ_{n} as in Borel Probability Measures on a Real Hilbert Space with an Orthonormal Basis: Standing Notation §coordinates and push-forwards as in Borel Probability Measures on a Real Hilbert Space with an Orthonormal Basis: Standing Notation §pushforward, let cc be a variance sequence with diagonal Gaussian measure γc\gamma_{c}, let n∈Nn\in\mathbb{N}, with γc(n)\gamma_{c^{(n)}} the diagonal Gaussian measure on Rn\mathbb{R}^{n} of the truncation c(n)c^{(n)} and λn\lambda_{n} Lebesgue measure on B(Rn)\mathcal{B}(\mathbb{R}^{n}). Let μ∈P(X)\mu\in\mathcal{P}(X) have a density ff with respect to γc\gamma_{c}, a Borel function f:X→Rf:X\to\mathbb{R} with f≥0f\ge0, and let νn=(Qn)#μ\nu_{n}=(Q_{n})_{\#}\mu. Let X×RnX\times\mathbb{R}^{n} carry the product metric, whose Borel σ\sigma-algebra is B(X)⊗B(Rn)\mathcal{B}(X)\otimes\mathcal{B}(\mathbb{R}^{n}) by The Borel Sigma-Algebra of a Product of Two Separable Metric Spaces is the Product Sigma-Algebra §product, both factors being separable (Borel Probability Measures on a Real Hilbert Space with an Orthonormal Basis: Standing Notation §space and Euclidean Space is a Separable Metric Space §separable); for maps into X×RnX\times\mathbb{R}^{n}, Borel means measurable with respect to these Borel σ\sigma-algebras, and push-forwards are the image measures of claim 1 of Image Measures, Measures with Densities, and Change of Variables. Let kn:X→X×Rnk_{n}:X\to X\times\mathbb{R}^{n} be the map kn(x)=(Qnx,pn(x))k_{n}(x)=(Q_{n}x,p_{n}(x)). Let W0W_{0} be the set of the w∈Xw\in X for which the function u↦f(pn∗(u)+w)u\mapsto f(p_{n}^{*}(u)+w) on Rn\mathbb{R}^{n} is integrable with respect to γc(n)\gamma_{c^{(n)}} with positive integral, and for w∈W0w\in W_{0} let Z(w)=∫Rnf(pn∗(u)+w) γc(n)(du)Z(w)=\int_{\mathbb{R}^{n}}f(p_{n}^{*}(u)+w)\,\gamma_{c^{(n)}}(du), a positive real number. Define K:X×B(Rn)→RK:X\times\mathcal{B}(\mathbb{R}^{n})\to\mathbb{R} by

K(w,B)=1Z(w)∫Rn1B(u) f(pn∗(u)+w) γc(n)(du)(w∈W0),K(w,B)=γc(n)(B)(w∉W0).K(w,B)=\frac{1}{Z(w)}\int_{\mathbb{R}^{n}}\mathbf{1}_{B}(u)\,f\bigl(p_{n}^{*}(u)+w\bigr)\,\gamma_{c^{(n)}}(du)\quad(w\in W_{0}),\qquad K(w,B)=\gamma_{c^{(n)}}(B)\quad(w\notin W_{0}).

1. (Good tails) knk_{n} is continuous, hence Borel; W0∈B(X)W_{0}\in\mathcal{B}(X) and νn(W0)=1\nu_{n}(W_{0})=1.

2. (A probability kernel) KK is a probability kernel from (X,B(X))(X,\mathcal{B}(X)) to (Rn,B(Rn))(\mathbb{R}^{n},\mathcal{B}(\mathbb{R}^{n})).

3. (Disintegration) (kn)#μ=νn⊗K(k_{n})_{\#}\mu=\nu_{n}\otimes K, the composite measure of Integration Against a Probability Kernel: Measurable Sections, the Composite Measure on the Product and the Iterated Integral §composite.

4. (Absolute continuity of the fibre laws) For every w∈Xw\in X and every B∈B(Rn)B\in\mathcal{B}(\mathbb{R}^{n}) with λn(B)=0\lambda_{n}(B)=0, K(w,B)=0K(w,B)=0.
