Calculation of Conditional Expectation

285 Views Asked by At

I have problems with the following exercise:

Let $\Omega=[-\frac{1}{3},\frac{1}{3}]$, $\mathcal{F}=\mathcal{B}(\Omega)$ the Borel-$\sigma$-algebra on $\Omega$ and P the Lebesgue-measure.

Let $X(\omega)=\omega^2$, $Y(\omega)=\omega^3$ $\forall \omega \in \Omega$. Calculate $E[X|Y]=E[X|\sigma(Y)]$ and $E[Y|X]$.

My thoughts:

Let $Z:=E[E[X|Y]$

$E[Z]=E[X] \iff$ $\int_{A}Zd\mathbb{P} = \int_AXd\mathbb{P}$ $\forall A \in \mathcal{F}$

$\Rightarrow$ $Z=X$ $a.s.$ $\Rightarrow$ $E[X|Y]=Y^\frac{2}{3}$?

E[Y|X] analog

Note that $X=\sqrt[3]{Y^2}$ hence $X$ is $\sigma(Y)$-measurable and $E(X\mid Y)=$ $____$.

In the other direction, assume you are given $X(\omega)$, what can you say about $\omega$? Use the answer to show that $E(Y\mid X)=0$.
