One of the fundamental results in probability theory is the strong law of large numbers, which was discussed in an earlier post under the guise of the Birkhoff ergodic theorem. Suppose we have a sequence of random variables which take … Continue reading
Laws of large numbers and Birkhoff’s ergodic theorem
In preparation for the next post on the central limit theorem, it’s worth recalling the fundamental results on convergence of the average of a sequence of random variables: the law of large numbers (both weak and strong), and its strengthening … Continue reading
