How to formally define a conditional distribution conditioning on an event of probability zero?

A formal definition can be done by the theory of measurable correspondence. Situation here is trivial since we only need a $\sigma$-algebra with measure. Intuitively, here we can fold the $R^2$ along …

How to formally define a conditional distribution conditioning on an event of probability zero?

Given $[X,Y]\sim N(0,I_2)$, a intuitive guess of the value of $P(X=x|\{X,Y\}=\{x,y\})$, where $\{\}$ means unordered set, is $1/2$ by symmetry. This type of notations is typically applied in conforma …
