Reason: Proof that a conditional density identity for products extends to jointly measurable integrands, via image and density measures and uniqueness of finite measures.

Proof

Step 0 (Integrals with respect to the restriction of PP to T\mathcal{T}). Let PTP_{\mathcal{T}} denote the restriction of PP to T\mathcal{T}; it is a measure on (Ω,T)(\Omega,\mathcal{T}) with PT(Ω)=1P_{\mathcal{T}}(\Omega)=1, countable additivity for members of T\mathcal{T} being a special case of that for members of F\mathcal{F}, so (Ω,T,PT)(\Omega,\mathcal{T},P_{\mathcal{T}}) is a finite, hence σ\sigma-finite, measure space. We claim that for every T\mathcal{T}-measurable Ξ:Ω[0,]\Xi:\Omega\to[0,\infty],

ΩΞdPT=ΩΞdP=E[Ξ]in [0,].(0)\int_\Omega\Xi\,dP_{\mathcal{T}}=\int_\Omega\Xi\,dP=\mathbb{E}[\Xi]\qquad\text{in }[0,\infty].\qquad(0)

For m1m\ge1 let sm=p=1m2m2m1{Ξp2m}s_m=\sum_{p=1}^{m2^m}2^{-m}\mathbf{1}\{\Xi\ge p2^{-m}\}, where 1{}\mathbf{1}\{\cdots\} is the indicator of the event in braces. Each sms_m is a nonnegative simple function on (Ω,T)(\Omega,\mathcal{T}), the sets {Ξp2m}=n{Ξ>p2m1/n}\{\Xi\ge p2^{-m}\}=\bigcap_{n}\{\Xi>p2^{-m}-1/n\} lying in T\mathcal{T}, and its integral with respect to PTP_{\mathcal{T}} and with respect to PP is the same number, the integral of a nonnegative simple function being computed from the measures of the level sets of its standard representation, which are members of T\mathcal{T} on which PTP_{\mathcal{T}} and PP agree. At every ω\omega: sm(ω)=2mmin(m2m,2mΞ(ω))s_m(\omega)=2^{-m}\min\bigl(m2^m,\lfloor2^m\Xi(\omega)\rfloor\bigr) when Ξ(ω)<\Xi(\omega)<\infty, with \lfloor\cdot\rfloor the integer part, since p2mΞ(ω)p\le2^m\Xi(\omega) holds for exactly min(m2m,2mΞ(ω))\min(m2^m,\lfloor2^m\Xi(\omega)\rfloor) indices p{1,,m2m}p\in\{1,\dots,m2^m\}, and sm(ω)=ms_m(\omega)=m when Ξ(ω)=\Xi(\omega)=\infty. Hence the sequence (sm(ω))m(s_m(\omega))_m is nondecreasing (from 2y2y2\lfloor y\rfloor\le\lfloor2y\rfloor, which holds because 2y2\lfloor y\rfloor is an integer at most 2y2y and every integer nxn\le x satisfies nxn\le\lfloor x\rfloor, as nx+1n\ge\lfloor x\rfloor+1 would give n>xn>x; and from the growth of the cap mm) and converges to Ξ(ω)\Xi(\omega) (for Ξ(ω)<\Xi(\omega)<\infty and mΞ(ω)m\ge\Xi(\omega) one has Ξ(ω)2msm(ω)Ξ(ω)\Xi(\omega)-2^{-m}\le s_m(\omega)\le\Xi(\omega); for Ξ(ω)=\Xi(\omega)=\infty, sm(ω)=ms_m(\omega)=m\to\infty). The monotone convergence theorem, applied on (Ω,T,PT)(\Omega,\mathcal{T},P_{\mathcal{T}}) and on (Ω,F,P)(\Omega,\mathcal{F},P) (where sms_m and Ξ\Xi are also measurable, as TF\mathcal{T}\subseteq\mathcal{F}), gives (0), both sides being the supremum of the same sequence of numbers.

Step 1 (The pairing map). Let Φ:ΩR×Ω\Phi:\Omega\to\mathbf{R}\times\Omega, Φ(ω)=(W(ω),ω)\Phi(\omega)=(W(\omega),\omega). For a measurable rectangle A×CA\times C with ARA\in\mathcal{R} and CTC\in\mathcal{T}, Φ1(A×C)=W1(A)CF\Phi^{-1}(A\times C)=W^{-1}(A)\cap C\in\mathcal{F}. Since the family of subsets of R×Ω\mathbf{R}\times\Omega whose preimage under Φ\Phi lies in F\mathcal{F} is a σ\sigma-algebra (preimages commute with complements and countable unions) containing the rectangles, which generate RT\mathcal{R}\otimes\mathcal{T} (Generated Sigma-Algebra), Φ\Phi is measurable with respect to F\mathcal{F} and RT\mathcal{R}\otimes\mathcal{T}. Consequently, for HH as in the statement, ωH(W(ω),ω)=(HΦ)(ω)\omega\mapsto H(W(\omega),\omega)=(H\circ\Phi)(\omega) is F\mathcal{F}-measurable, since {HΦ>a}=Φ1({H>a})\{H\circ\Phi>a\}=\Phi^{-1}(\{H>a\}) for every real aa. Let PΦP_\Phi be the image measure of PP under Φ\Phi on (R×Ω,RT)(\mathbf{R}\times\Omega,\mathcal{R}\otimes\mathcal{T}) (claim 1 of that lemma); it satisfies PΦ(R×Ω)=1P_\Phi(\mathbf{R}\times\Omega)=1.

Step 2 (The density measure). The product measure ρPT\rho\otimes P_{\mathcal{T}} exists on RT\mathcal{R}\otimes\mathcal{T}, both factors being σ\sigma-finite. By the Tonelli theorem, for every RT\mathcal{R}\otimes\mathcal{T}-measurable Ψ:R×Ω[0,]\Psi:\mathbf{R}\times\Omega\to[0,\infty] the sections rΨ(r,ω)r\mapsto\Psi(r,\omega) are R\mathcal{R}-measurable, the map ωRΨ(r,ω)ρ(dr)\omega\mapsto\int_{\mathbf{R}}\Psi(r,\omega)\,\rho(dr) is T\mathcal{T}-measurable, and

R×ΩΨd(ρPT)=Ω(RΨ(r,ω)ρ(dr))PT(dω)=E[RΨ(r,)ρ(dr)],(1)\int_{\mathbf{R}\times\Omega}\Psi\,d(\rho\otimes P_{\mathcal{T}})=\int_\Omega\Bigl(\int_{\mathbf{R}}\Psi(r,\omega)\,\rho(dr)\Bigr)P_{\mathcal{T}}(d\omega)=\mathbb{E}\Bigl[\int_{\mathbf{R}}\Psi(r,\cdot)\,\rho(dr)\Bigr],\qquad(1)

the last equality by (0). Let π\pi be the measure with density ff with respect to ρPT\rho\otimes P_{\mathcal{T}} (claim 3 of that lemma; ff is RT\mathcal{R}\otimes\mathcal{T}-measurable with values in [0,)[0,\infty)), so that π(S)=1Sfd(ρPT)\pi(S)=\int\mathbf{1}_Sf\,d(\rho\otimes P_{\mathcal{T}}) for SRTS\in\mathcal{R}\otimes\mathcal{T} and Ψdπ=Ψfd(ρPT)\int\Psi\,d\pi=\int\Psi f\,d(\rho\otimes P_{\mathcal{T}}) for every RT\mathcal{R}\otimes\mathcal{T}-measurable Ψ0\Psi\ge0, the product Ψf\Psi f being measurable (claim 1 of Linearity and Monotonicity of the Lebesgue Integral covers sums and constant multiples; for the product, {Ψf>a}=q({Ψ>q}{f>a/q})\{\Psi f>a\}=\bigcup_{q}(\{\Psi>q\}\cap\{f>a/q\}) over positive rationals qq when a0a\ge0, and {Ψf>a}=R×Ω\{\Psi f>a\}=\mathbf{R}\times\Omega when a<0a<0).

Step 3 (The two measures agree). For a measurable rectangle A×CA\times C with ARA\in\mathcal{R} and CTC\in\mathcal{T}, apply (1) to Ψ=1A×Cf\Psi=\mathbf{1}_{A\times C}f, whose section at ω\omega is 1C(ω)1A(r)f(r,ω)\mathbf{1}_C(\omega)\mathbf{1}_A(r)f(r,\omega), the constant factor 1C(ω)\mathbf{1}_C(\omega) coming out of the inner integral by claim 1 of Linearity and Monotonicity of the Lebesgue Integral:

π(A×C)=E[1CR1A(r)f(r,)ρ(dr)]=E[1C1A(W)]=P(CW1(A))=PΦ(A×C),\pi(A\times C)=\mathbb{E}\Bigl[\mathbf{1}_C\int_{\mathbf{R}}\mathbf{1}_A(r)f(r,\cdot)\,\rho(dr)\Bigr]=\mathbb{E}\bigl[\mathbf{1}_C\,\mathbf{1}_A(W)\bigr]=P\bigl(C\cap W^{-1}(A)\bigr)=P_\Phi(A\times C),

the second equality being the hypothesis for CC and AA, and the third the integral of the simple function 1CW1(A)\mathbf{1}_{C\cap W^{-1}(A)}. In particular, with A=RA=\mathbf{R} and C=ΩC=\Omega, π(R×Ω)=1=PΦ(R×Ω)\pi(\mathbf{R}\times\Omega)=1=P_\Phi(\mathbf{R}\times\Omega). The measurable rectangles form a π\pi-system (the intersection of A×CA\times C and A×CA'\times C' is (AA)×(CC)(A\cap A')\times(C\cap C')) generating RT\mathcal{R}\otimes\mathcal{T}, and π\pi and PΦP_\Phi are measures on RT\mathcal{R}\otimes\mathcal{T} of equal finite total mass agreeing on it; by claim 1 of Uniqueness of Finite Measures on a Generating Pi-System and the Density of the Exponential Law, π=PΦ\pi=P_\Phi.

Step 4 (Conclusion). Let H:R×Ω[0,]H:\mathbf{R}\times\Omega\to[0,\infty] be RT\mathcal{R}\otimes\mathcal{T}-measurable. The T\mathcal{T}-measurability of ωRH(r,ω)f(r,ω)ρ(dr)\omega\mapsto\int_{\mathbf{R}}H(r,\omega)f(r,\omega)\,\rho(dr) and the R\mathcal{R}-measurability of the sections are the Tonelli assertions of Step 2 applied to Ψ=Hf\Psi=Hf. Finally, by claim 2 of Image Measures, Measures with Densities, and Change of Variables (change of variables for PΦP_\Phi), Step 3, claim 3 of that lemma (the density ff of π\pi), and (1) applied to Ψ=Hf\Psi=Hf,

E[H(W,)]=ΩHΦdP=R×ΩHdPΦ=R×ΩHdπ=R×ΩHfd(ρPT)=E[RH(r,)f(r,)ρ(dr)],\mathbb{E}\bigl[H(W,\cdot)\bigr]=\int_\Omega H\circ\Phi\,dP=\int_{\mathbf{R}\times\Omega}H\,dP_\Phi=\int_{\mathbf{R}\times\Omega}H\,d\pi=\int_{\mathbf{R}\times\Omega}Hf\,d(\rho\otimes P_{\mathcal{T}})=\mathbb{E}\Bigl[\int_{\mathbf{R}}H(r,\cdot)f(r,\cdot)\,\rho(dr)\Bigr],

which is the asserted identity.
