Almost Supermartingale Extensions of Olivier's Theorem
Abstract
Olivier's 1827 theorem provides a rate of convergence to zero of the general term of a decreasing summable sequence of positive reals. We derive stochastic extensions of this result in the context of almost supermartingales. The results are applied to the analysis of stochastic iterative processes.
