Factorized Joint Probability Mass Function Implies Independence
lemmaProbabilitylem:factorized-pmf-independence-2026aLet be a probability space, let be the set of natural numbers with , and let . Let be random variables such that for every and every . Suppose that for each there is a function with such that for all ,
with the finite product notation. Then:
1. for every and every Borel set ,
the sum over the countable index set being the supremum of its finite partial sums (all terms are nonnegative); in particular ;
2. the random variables are independent.
