Let (Ω,F,P) by a probability space, X:Ω→[0,∞) a (non-negative, finite) random variable and F:[0,∞)→[0,∞) a continuous function. Assume that
E[F(X)]<∞
I am wondering, if we can immediately draw the following conclusion:
E[F(X+a)]<∞
for all a∈[0,∞) (shift of the random variable).
The interesting case clearly is, if X is unbounded, i.e. for every M∈[0,∞) there exists a set A∈F with P(A)>0 and X(ω)>M for all ω∈A).
Thank you very much for your help!
Answer
In general no: let U be a random variable such that U⩾e almost surely, U is integrable but U∉Lp for any p>1. Then define X=loglogU and F:x↦exp(exp(x)). Then F(X)=U and for any positive a, F(X+a)=Uea, which is not integrable.
