Abstract

We define and study some definitions of probabilistic powerdomains over domains in SFP. We give three definitions: the first one is based in the notion of probability distribution over a domain; the second in probabilistic generating trees, that generalize the notion of generating tree, introduced by Smyth; and the last in "informations about probability distributions", that we introduce, getting an information system, as defined by Scott.
