On Bayes Equality and Related Issues

Resumo

To make calculations in the Bayesian analysis, the formalism of which is based on the layering of a probability measure defined on the product of measurable spaces, it is useful to have a summary of the properties of this layering. In this paper we formulate and prove those of them that are used in calculations more often than others. Particularly, we prove Hoeffding-type inequalities using direct elementary techniques.
