Independence of stochastic processes #
We prove that a stochastic process $(X_s)_{s \in S}$ is independent from a random variable $Y$ if for all $s_1, ..., s_p \in S$ the family $(X_{s_1}, ..., X_{s_p})$ is independent from $Y$.
We prove that two stochastic processes $(X_s)_{s \in S}$ and $(Y_t)_{t \in T}$ are independent if for all $s_1, ..., s_p \in S$ and $t_1, ..., t_q \in T$ the two families $(X_{s_1}, ..., X_{s_p})$ and $(Y_{t_1}, ..., Y_{t_q})$ are independent. We prove an analogous condition for a family of stochastic processes.

A stochastic process $(X_s)_{s \in S}$ is independent from a random variable $Y$ if for all $s_1, ..., s_p \in S$ the family $(X_{s_1}, ..., X_{s_p})$ is independent from $Y$.
A random variable $X$ is independent from a stochastic process $(Y_s)_{s \in S}$ if for all $s_1, ..., s_p \in S$ the variable $Y$ is independent from the family $(X_{s_1}, ..., X_{s_p})$.
Two stochastic processes $(X_s)_{s \in S}$ and $(Y_t)_{t \in T}$ are independent if for all $s_1, ..., s_p \in S$ and $t_1, ..., t_q \in T$ the two families $(X_{s_1}, ..., X_{s_p})$ and $(Y_{t_1}, ..., Y_{t_q})$ are independent.
Stochastic processes $((X^s_t)_{t \in T_s})_{s \in S}$ are mutually independent if for all $s_1, ..., s_n$ and all $t^{s_i}_1, ..., t^{s_i}_{p_i}$ the families $(X^{s_1}_{t^{s_1}_1}, ..., X^{s_1}_{t^{s_1}_{p_1}}), ..., (X^{s_n}_{t^{s_n}_1}, ..., X^{s_n}_{t^{s_n}_{p_n}})$ are mutually independent.
