Conditioning On The Level of Measure Theory

Example. Let Y be a random variable distributed uniformly on (0,1), and X = f(Y) where f is a given function. Two cases are treated below: f = f1 and f = f2, where f1 is the continuous piecewise-linear function

f_1(y) = \begin{cases} 3y &\text{for } 0 \le y \le 1/3,\\ 1.5(1-y) &\text{for } 1/3 \le y \le 2/3,\\ 0.5 &\text{for } 2/3 \le y \le 1, \end{cases}

and f2 is the Weierstrass function.

    “The climacteric marks the end of apologizing. The chrysalis of conditioning has once for all to break and the female woman finally to emerge.”
    —Germaine Greer (b. 1939)

    “Reduced to a miserable mass level, the level of a Hitler, German Romanticism broke out into hysterical barbarism.”
    —Thomas Mann (1875–1955)

    “Speech is the twin of my vision, it is unequal to measure itself,
    It provokes me forever, it says sarcastically,
    Walt you contain enough, why don’t you let it out then?”
    —Walt Whitman (1819–1892)

    “No theory is good unless it permits, not rest, but the greatest work. No theory is good except on condition that one use it to go on beyond.”
    —André Gide (1869–1951)
