Abstract

Let be a filtration, {Xn} an adapted sequence of real random variables, and {[alpha]n} a predictable sequence of non-negative random variables with [alpha]1>0. Set and define the random distribution functions and . Under mild assumptions on {[alpha]n}, it is shown that , a.s. on the set {Fn or Bn convergesuniformly}. Moreover, conditions are given under which Fn converges uniformly with probability 1.
