Problem :



Let $Omega:=[0,1]$



How to define two independent random variables, which describe coin toss on the above omega?



My idea:



$Omega=[0,1]$



$Sigma = mathbb{B}([0,1])$



Consider the Lebesgue measure



1-reverse coin
2-obverse coin



$X(w)= begin{cases} 0 &text{when } w in [0,1/2) \ 1 &text{when } win [1/2,1) end{cases} $



$Y(w)= begin{cases} 1 &text{when } w in [0,1/4) cup [1/2,3/4) \ 0 &text{when } win [1/4,1/2)cup [3/4,1) end{cases} $



It seems, that $P(X=1)=P(X=0)=P(Y=0)=P(Y=1)=1/2$



And, for example $P(X=0)P(Y=1)=1/4=P(X=0,Y=1)$



What do you think about this?
