$Xin L^2$ implies $Y:=(X-E[X])^2 in L^1$

$begingroup$


Given the random variable $X in L^2$, we define a new variable $Y:=(X-E[X])^2$, where $E$ is the expectation. Why can we conclude that $Yin L^1$?



Is it because for any function $f in L^2$ the norm is $(int_X|f|^2)^{frac{1}{2}}$, so the norm squared would be a new function $g in L^2$ with $(int_X|g|)$?

    Just expand that square and use that if $Y in L^2$ then $Y in L^1$ (this is true on probability spaces, using Holder's inequality). (You'll also use that the sum of $L^1$ functions is$L^1$)

    By definition, $X$ is square integrable if its square is integrable, hence so is $Y.$ (I am not sure if you are asking for this tautology or something else...)
