We explore the interplay between random and deterministic phenomena using a representation of uncertainty based on the measure-theoretic concept of outer measure. The meaning of the analogues of different probabilistic concepts is investigated and examples of application are given. The novelty of this article lies mainly in the suitability of the tools introduced for jointly representing random and deterministic uncertainty. These tools are shown to yield intuitive results in simple situations and to generalise easily to more complex cases. Connections with Dempster-Shafer theory, the empirical Bayes methods and generalised Bayesian inference are also highlighted.

Elements of asymptotic theory with outer probability measures
Posterior uncertainty under a class of outer measures is asymptotically normal, yielding MAP estimators and likelihood-ratio-like tests whose limits are determined by the curvature of the possibility function.
