The standard proof of this fact leaves several questions unanswered. This note explains what goes wrong when attempting a "direct" proof. It also explains how the standard proof...

The aim of this post is to motivate the idea of representing probability spaces as states on a commutative algebra. We will consider how this abstract construction relates directly to classical probabilities. In the standard axiomatization of probability theory, due to Kolmogorov, the central construct is a probability space $latex {(\Omega,\mathcal F,{\mathbb P})}&fg=000000$. This consists...
