आप सीखेंगे

  • Prove the Borel–Cantelli lemmas and the strong law of large numbers.
  • Define conditional expectation via the Radon–Nikodym theorem and use its properties.
  • Prove the central limit theorem using characteristic functions, and apply the martingale convergence theorem.

परिभाषा

  • A probability space is a measure space (Ω, F, P) with P(Ω) = 1.
  • For an integrable X and a sub-σ-algebra G, the conditional expectation E[X | G] is the (almost surely unique) G-measurable random variable whose integral over every set in G equals that of X.
  • An adapted integrable sequence (Xₙ) is a martingale if E[Xₙ₊₁ | Fₙ] = Xₙ almost surely.

प्रमेय

  • Strong law of large numbers: for independent identically distributed integrable Xᵢ, the sample means converge almost surely to E[X₁].
  • Lévy's continuity theorem relates convergence in distribution to convergence of characteristic functions.
  • Doob's martingale convergence theorem: an L¹-bounded martingale converges almost surely.

आम भ्रांतियाँ

  • Confusing almost sure convergence with convergence in probability.
  • Treating a conditional expectation as a number rather than as a random variable.
