The concept of an almost sure property relates to the concept of
zero-probability event. Let
be
the set of sample points
that satisfy a property
.
Property
is an almost sure property if the set
of all points that do not satisfy property
is included in a zero-probability event
,
i.e.:
A more articulated explanation of the term "almost sure" is provided in the lecture entitled Zero-probability events.
