Convergence concepts in probability MOC

Convergence almost surely

Convergence almost surely is convergence almost everywhere on real random variables. prob A sequence (𝑋𝑖)βˆžπ‘–=1 of real random variables converges almost surely to a real random variable 𝑋 iff

β„™(limπ‘–β†’βˆžπ‘‹π‘–=𝑋)=1

which is equivalent to either of the following conditions holding for all πœ– >0

β„™(limπ‘–β†’βˆž|π‘‹π‘›βˆ’π‘‹|<πœ–)=1limπ‘–β†’βˆžβ„™(sup𝑗β‰₯𝑖|π‘‹π‘–βˆ’π‘‹|>πœ–)=0βˆžβˆ‘π‘–=1β„™(|π‘‹π‘–βˆ’π‘‹|>πœ–)<∞
