(I've been lighting this board up recently; sorry about that. I've been thinking about a lot of things, and my professors all generally have better things to do or are out of town.)
Is there an easy way to show that if f is Lipschitz (on all of \mathbb R), then
<br /> \int_{-\infty}^\infty f^2(x) e^{-\frac{x^2}{2t}}dx < \infty \quad ?<br />
I've tried a number of different approaches - boundedness of the derivative and integration by parts, bounded/dominated/monotone convergence theorem, approximation of f^2 by polynomials - but I haven't gotten any of them to work. Apparently, just because f is Lipschitz doesn't mean f^2 is Lipschitz. (Just look at f(x) = x.)
Can anyone think of a Lipschitz function for which the integral above is infinite?
