I think is better to mention the levy's continuity theorem, which states the bijection between probability distribution and characteristic function is sequentially continuous.

Hi, thank you very much for the video! I just don't understand why the first part integrates to - sqrt(2pi), if you could elaborate on that it would be very helpful :)

Hi Ben, Nice exposition of the complex integration. Thanks for showing explicitly what is really going on in the presence of a complex variable (explanation which is often omitted in showing the proof). I was wondering how the 2nd and 3rd terms integrate to 0. In particular, how to find anti-derivative to the complex function exp{-(S^2)/2}? Thanks.

In the fourth part we have -alpha -i*t in the lower bound, not alpha -i*t. Great video by the way
