Some epistemological ramifications of the Borel-Kolmogorov paradox.

This paper discusses conditional probability $$P(A{\vert }B)$$ , or the probability of A given B. When $$P(B)>0$$ , the ratio formula determines $$P(A {\vert } B)$$ . When $$P(B)=0$$ , the ratio formula breaks down. The Borel-Kolmogorov paradox suggests that conditional probabilities in such cases a...
