Sunto
Si ricorda Bruno de Finetti (1906–1985), illustrando le motivazioni delle sue ricerche sulle successioni di eventi scambiabili. I risultati ottenuti, tra cui il celebre teorema di rappresentazione, coronarono l’indagine profonda sul concetto di probabilità, che il de Finetti aveva intrapreso quando ancora era studente universitario a Milano.
Summary
This is the text of a conference delivered as a memento of Bruno de Finetti who took a degree in mathematics at the University of Milan (1927). In 1926, de Finetti approached probability and, in 1928, he delivered a paper to the International Congress of Mathematics held at Bologna, including the definition of exchangeable events and the famous representation theorem. This conference summarizes the main results of that fundamental paper in relation to de Finetti’s conception of statistical inference.
