The van den Berg--Kesten--Reimer operator and inequality for infinite spaces

Abstract

We remove the hypothesis "$S$ is finite" from the BKR inequality for product measures on $S^d$, which raises some issues related to descriptive set theory. We also discuss the extension of the BKR operator and inequality, from 2 events to 2 or more events, and we remove, in one sense, the hypothesis that $d$ be finite.
