Why is $left.fracmathrmdmathrmdtmathbbE[|X+t|^p]right|_t=0=0$, where $X$ is standard Gaussian?

Let $XsimmathcalN(0,1)$ and $p>2$. I would like to prove that
$$left.fracmathrmdmathrmdtmathbbE[|X+t|^p]right|_t=0=0,$$
but I don't see a (simple) way to do it.



Written explicitly, the derivative would be



$$lim_trightarrow 0frac1sqrt2piint_-infty^inftyfrac^ptexp(-x^2/2)~mathrmdx.$$



The denominator inside the integral doesn't generally converge to zero for fixed $x$, so it is not that simple. I also thought of using the bound
$$left| |x+t|^p-|x|^pright|leq p2^p-1|t|(|t|^p-1+|x|^p-1),$$
but I don't see this working either, the limit is strictly positive.



What can I do?

          Hints: $frac d dt |x+t|^p|_t=0 =p|x+t|^p-1 s(x)$ where $s(x)=1$ if $x geq 0$ and $s(x)=-1$ otherwise. Using the inequality you have stated in combination with D CT show that you can differentiate under the expectation. Finally. $Ep|X+t|^p-1 s(X)=0$ because the distribution of $X$ is symmetric.
