I'm trying to write the following as a single integral, however I did not get the decired results yet, and tried searching this site without succes. What I'm trying to rewrite is:
$$\mathbb{E}\int^X_0f(y)dy$$ Where X $\in (0, S)$, where $S$ can be both finite or infite and f(y) is a $C^2$ function
So it's really the double integral: $\int^S_0\int^X_0f(y)dyg(x)dx$.
I have tried the following things:
- Use integration by parts together with the first fundamental theorem of calculus.
- Rewrite it using the second fundamental theorem of calculus, such that the Expected value ends up in the bound, however this would require Jensen's inequality to hold with equality.
- Using Tonneli's theorem, however I'm not sure if this would be allowed, since then you can interchange the expected value and the integral, resulting in : $\int^X_0[f(y)G(x)]^S_0dy = \int^X_0f(y)dy$. Which I dont think is correct, since the expected value then disappears.
So my question is how to rewrite this double integral into a single integral, where the integral is w.r.t. y.
I hope someone is willing to help, or to point out which method to look at, all help is appreciated!
