Probality problem
Suppose random variable X converges to Y in L2 spaceHow can we prove the expectation E(e^X-e^Y) converges to zero, any ideas?
Probality problem
This does not follow. You need extra conditions and can try using the dominated convergence or maybe the sequence is uniformly integrable?
