A Full Description of All Commutative Associative Polynomial Operations on Probabilities

When two events are independent, the probability that both events occur is equal to the product p1 * p2 of the probabilities of each of these events. The probability that at least one of these events will occur is equal to p1 + p2 − p1 * p2. In both cases, we have a commutative associative polynomial operation. A natural question is: how can we describe all possible operations of this type? These operations are described in this paper.

Abstract

When two events are independent, the probability that both events occur is equal to the product p1 * p2 of the probabilities of each of these events. The probability that at least one of these events will occur is equal to p1 + p2 − p1 * p2. In both cases, we have a commutative associative polynomial operation. A natural question is: how can we describe all possible operations of this type? These operations are described in this paper.
