We can then identify the conditional distribution $Y(1) | Y(0)$.

Here $serif(Pr)(Y(1) = b | G = g)$ and $serif(Pr)( Y(0) = a | G = g)$ can be identified form data by the consistency, positivity and unconfounder assumption, using them to solve the above equation system, we can identify $serif(Pr)(Y(1) = b | Y(0) = a)$.
