Expectation value of a convolution of probability densities

1.6k Views Asked by At

Assume we have a PDF, when we now calculate the convolution of this PDF with itself, what do we get in the end?

For Gaussian PDFs it's clear, we will have again an Gaussian but with $E[X]=2E[X_i]$. But how does this look for general PDFs? Is there any general information?
