breaks down. The approximation (**) for the integral holds for functions that are 'smooth' in a certain sense, but there are probability distributions for which it does not hold. In fact there are distributions G for which \int_{-a}^{a} dz G(x - z) = Chi_{a}(x) , Thanks. If \int_{-a}^{a} dz G(x - z) = Chi_{a}(x), then x must not be a continuous random variable, but a
Suppose X and Y are two continuous, independently and identically distributed random variables. For example, both of them are in standard normal distribution N(0,1). What is the probability of equality between X and Y, Pr(X=Y)? Is it infinitesimal? but in the following way I find Pr(X=Y)=1/(2*sqrt(Pi)): Let INT denote an integral from minus infinity to plus infinity, then Pr(X=Y)=INT( Pr(X
