Let [Formula: see text] be the class of all algebraic probability spaces. A "natural product" is, by definition, a map [Formula: see text] which is required to satisfy all the canonical axioms of Ben Ghorbal and Schürmann for "universal product" except for the commutativity axiom. We show that there exist only five natural products, namely tensor product, free product, Boolean product, monotone product and anti-monotone product. This means that, in a sense, there exist only five universal notions of stochastic independence in noncommutative probability theory.

Abstract Disaggregative invariance refers to stochastic independence between the total precipitation amount and its temporal disaggregation. This property is investigated herein for areal average and point precipitation amounts accumulated over a 24-h period and disaggregated into four 6-h subperiods. Statistical analyses of precipitation records from 1948 to 1993 offer convincing empirical evidence against the disaggregative invariance and in favor of the conditional disaggregative invariance, which arises when the total amount and its temporal disaggregation are conditioned on the timing of precipitation within the diurnal cycle. The property of conditional disaggregative invariance allows the modeler or the forecaster to decompose the problem of quantitative precipitation forecasting into three tasks: (i) forecasting the precipitation timing; (ii) forecasting the total amount, conditional on timing; and (iii) forecasting the temporal disaggregation, conditional on timing. Tasks (ii) and (iii) can be performed independently of one another, and this offers a formidable advantage for applications.

The concept of stochastic precedence between two real-valued random variables has often emerged in different applied frameworks. In this paper, we analyze several aspects of a more general, and completely natural, concept of stochastic precedence that also had appeared in the literature. In particular, we study the relations with the notions of stochastic ordering. Such a study leads us to introducing some special classes of bivariate copulas. Motivations for our study can arise from different fields. In particular, we consider the frame of Target-Based Approach in decisions under risk. This approach has been mainly developed under the assumption of stochastic independence between “Prospects” and “Targets”. Our analysis concerns the case of stochastic dependence.
