Let $\EE$ be an experiment with probability space $\struct {\Omega, \Sigma, \Pr}$.
Let $X$ and $Y$ be random variables on $\struct {\Omega, \Sigma, \Pr}$.
Then $X$ and $Y$ are defined as independent (of each other) if and only if:
- $\map \Pr {X = x, Y = y} = \map \Pr {X = x} \map \Pr {Y = y}$
where $\map \Pr {X = x, Y = y}$ is the joint probability mass function of $X$ and $Y$.
