Definition
A Random variable is a measurable map from a probability space to any measurable space
Let [ilmath](\Omega,\mathcal{A},\mathbb{P})[/ilmath] be a probability space and let [ilmath]\Epsilon:\Omega\rightarrow\mathbb{R} [/ilmath] be a random variable
(that means it is a measurable map FROM a probability space to a measurable space recall)
Then:
