Abstract

Let (Formula presented.) be a probability measure space. We consider the so-called (Formula presented.) for some classes of functions φ. Several new estimates and equalities are derived and compared with other results of this type. Especially the case when φ has a Taylor expansion is treated and the corresponding discrete results are pointed out.
