An Optional Stopping-like theorem for large stopping times on birth-death chains
Abstract
An elementary proof is given for a theorem showing that certain birth-death chains show martingale-like behavior at large stopping times. This is a generalization of and new proof for a theorem from a earlier paper by the author.
