So, if you assume $(A,B) \sim (X.Y)$, you are implicitly assuming that $A\sim X$ and $B\sim Y$. Thus, your transitive assumption that $(X_1,X_1-X_2)\sim (-X_1, -X_2)$ is saying that $X_1 \sim -X_1$ which is your symmetry condition on $G_1$ but also that $X_1 - X_2 \sim -X_2$ which can only happen if $X_1$ is $0$ with probability $1$. Note that your $X_1-X_2 \sim -X_2$ also implies that.$X_1=0$. var($X_1-X_2)=2$, var$(-X_2)=1$ in your example. | |
