Description

The aim of this paper is to compare different types of convergence of probability measures: weak convergence, convergence in the Prokhorov metric, etc. This compilation work should investigate the (relative) compactness, tightness and other topological properties of the measure space. The work will culminate in a proof of Prokhorov's theorem and its applications.
