Abstract: Abstract. The subject of this paper is finding
small sample spaces for joint distributions of
n discrete random variables. Such distributions
are often only required to obey a certain limited
set of constraints of the form Pr(E)=.
We show that the problem of deciding whether
there exists any distribution satisfying a given
set of constraints is NP-hard. However, if the
constraints are consistent, then there exists a distribution
satisfying them which is supported by
a
"small"
sample space... (Update)
