I solved majority of the question I just need to find the last joint density. Found the equations at part 3.

Homework Statement



Show P(X-Y=z ,Y=y) = P(X) = P(|Y|)
I showed P(X) = P(|Y|)

Homework Equations

The Attempt at a Solution


P(X=x,Y=y) = \frac{2*(2x-y)}{\sqrt{2πT^3σ^6}} * exp(((\frac{-(2x-y)^2}{(2σ^2T)}))
P(Y=y) = NormalPDF(0,Tσ^2)
P(X=x) = 2*NormalPDF(0,Tσ^2)

I don't really want to find the convolution then the Jacobian unless I have to. If there is an easier way please let me know.

I took a step ahead and said:

P(X=x, Y=y) = P(X-Y=x-y , Y=y) = P(Z=z, Y=y) but I don't seem to get the right distribution.

Ignore the question There was a typo at the question. I just solved it Thanks
 
There are two things I don't understand about this problem. First, when finding the nth root of a number, there should in theory be n solutions. However, the formula produces n+1 roots. Here is how. The first root is simply ##\left(r\right)^{\left(\frac{1}{n}\right)}##. Then you multiply this first root by n additional expressions given by the formula, as you go through k=0,1,...n-1. So you end up with n+1 roots, which cannot be correct. Let me illustrate what I mean. For this...
