If and nonnegative measurable functions satisfy for all , then their Lebesgue integrals obey
The quantile derivative identity and monotone substitution inequality prove the one-dimensional case; Tonelli theorem extends it by induction. It implies the Brunn–Minkowski inequality.
For , the Hardy-Littlewood maximal function is bounded on . A direct proof for finite applies the weak estimate to , integrates the resulting distribution-function bound against , and uses Tonelli theorem.
Start traps at a unit-intensity Poisson random measure in Euclidean space and attach mutually independent Brownian motions, independent of the initial measure. For a deterministic target path , independently thin initial positions according to whether their marked path comes within radius one of the target by time . The retention probability integrates, by the Tonelli theorem, to the expected volume of the sausage along . Symmetry of Brownian motion makes this the expected volume of the sausage along . The Poisson zero-count probability proves the displayed survival formula. This derives the formula directly from independent thinning, without assuming a separate marking or displacement theorem.
The ultimate survival probability satisfies . Condition on the first arrival of the Poisson process, differentiate the resulting exponentially weighted integral, and integrate the convolution derivative equation from zero. Tonelli theorem converts the claim-density convolution to the tail convolution. The kernel mass is , so this is a defective renewal equation.
