The layer cake formula / Cavalieri's principle / tail probability formula #

In this file we prove the following layer cake formula.

Consider a non-negative measurable function f on a measure space. Apply pointwise to it an increasing absolutely continuous function G : ℝ≥0 → ℝ≥0 vanishing at the origin, with derivative G' = g on the positive real line (in other words, G a primitive of a non-negative locally integrable function g on the positive real line). Then the integral of the result, ∫ G ∘ f, can be written as the integral over the positive real line of the "tail measures" of f (i.e., a function giving the measures of the sets on which f exceeds different positive real values) weighted by g. In probability theory contexts, the "tail measures" could be referred to as "tail probabilities" of the random variable f, or as values of the "complementary cumulative distribution function" of the random variable f. The terminology "tail probability formula" is therefore occasionally used for the layer cake formula (or a standard application of it).

The essence of the (mathematical) proof is Fubini's theorem.

We also give the two most common applications of the layer cake formula

Variants of the formulas with measures of sets of the form {ω | f(ω) > t} instead of {ω | f(ω) ≥ t} are also included.
