Measure-theoretic Probability
One of the two main mathematical notions of probability, the other one being game-theoretic probability. The modern axiomatic system of measure-theoretic probability was first spelled out by Andrei Kolmogorov in his 1933 book. At this time measure-theoretic notion of probability is by far the dominant one.
