INTRODUCTION TO PROBABILITY THEORY by Victor
... Example 12. Let Ω be 2 element sample space, i. e. Ω = {ω1 , ω2 }. Assume that p1 = p and p2 = 1 − p, where 0 ≤ p ≤ 1. This example describes all experiments which have two outcomes. If our experiment consists of tossing a coin and if we assume that a head is as likely to appear as a tail, then we w ...

Problem of the Week Problem D and Solution Roll the Dice
... In mathematics we say “fair die” when we mean that there is an equally likely chance of landing on any face of the die. A standard six-sided die has its faces marked with the numbers 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6. The die is fair and each number is used exactly once. A special six-sided die has its faces mar ...

Random Variables
... Random Variables – A random variable is a process, which when followed, will result in a numeric output. The set of possible outputs is called the support, or sample space, of the random variable. Associated with each random variable is a probability density function (pdf) for the random variable. R ...

Most future cash flows models in finance and economics are assumed to be stochastic. Thus, to value these stochastic cash ...
