[For the entire collection see Zbl 0701.00011.] Let \(\mathcal B\) be a Boolean algebra acted on by a group \(T\) of automorphisms. Some connections between local coherence of exchange rates, their corresponding finitely additive full conditional probabilities and Tarski's notion of paradoxical decompositions are established. It is shown that the locally coherent extension of exchange rates can be done in a translation invariant fashion. As a result, a translation invariant, full conditional probability exists on \(\mathbb{R}^ n\) which agrees with conditional probabilities induced by the usual Hausdorff measures. Carlson's construction is shown to yield proper, finitely additive \(T\)-invariant full conditional probability and countably additive \(T\)-invariant full conditional probability on suitable domains. When \(\mathcal B\) is an algebra of events on a set \(X\), \(S\) is an index set and we deal with the group of permutations of finitely many coordinates in \(X^ S\), then exchangeable, finitely additive, full conditional probabilities are shown to always exist. However, when \((X,\Sigma)\) is a nontrivial measure space, \(S\) is infinite and \(\mathcal A\) is an exchangeable \(\sigma\)-algebra on \(X^ S\) containing the product \(\sigma\)-algebra \(\Sigma^ S\), there is no exchangeable, countably additive full conditional probability on \(\mathcal A\).
