Prove that F: R→R nondecreasing, right continous, limt→−∞F(t)=0, limt→∞F(t)=1 is a CDF for some random variable X, i.e. there exists random variable X such that FX=F where FX denotes CDF of X.
The hint was to look onto (Ω=(0,1),F=B((0,1)),λ|(0,1)).
I know that CDF of any random variable has those properties, but I fail to see how to link FX with F.
Answer
For ω∈(0,1) define X(ω)=inf{t:F(t)≥ω}. First note that F(t)≥ω} implies that X(ω)≤t.
Now suppose F(t)<ω. Then F(s)<ω for all s≤t. This implies that X(ω)≥t. In other words $X(\omega)
Thus P(X≤t)≤λ((0,F(t)])=F(t) or FX(t)≤F(t). Also FX(t−)≤F(t). These two inequalities imply that FX(t)=F(t) at all points where FX is continuous. Since both of these are right-continuous function it follows that FX=F.
