  • 5 аксиома независимости

    Если смешать каждую из двух лотерей с третьей, то упорядочение предпочтений двух полученных смесей не будет зависеть (будет независимой) от третьей используемой лотереи. — If we mix each of two lotteries with a third one, then the preference ordering of the two resulting mixtures does not depend on (is independent of) the particular third lottery used.

    Аксиома независимости была впервые предложена фон Нейманом и Моргенштерном в качестве побочного результата теории игр. — The independence axiom was first proposed by von Neumann and Morgenstern as an incidental result in the theory of games.
