Are these 2 equations equivalent? If so how can I prove it, if not how can I disprove it?
$CI(t)=\prod_{t_i<t}(d_i/n_i)$
$CI(t)=1-\prod_{t_i<t}(1-(d_i/n_i))$

Just try it:
$$ab \stackrel{?}{=} 1 - (1-a) \cdot (1-b)$$
Well:
$1 - (1-a) \cdot (1-b) = 1 - (1 - a - b + ab) = a + b - ab \ne ab$
So, no. Those equations are not equal.
