Hi,

I am proving results in Isabelle/HOL in which they need the use
of Supermartingale and Azuma–Hoeffding inequality. I have been trying to
search for existing theorems containing them or ways to formalise them but,
unfortunately, have not yet found any. If there anyone who knows where I
should start or an ongoing/published (or unpublished) work regarding these
two, if it is the case, please help me.

Thanks,
Kawin

Dear Kawin,

there is not yet much theory on Martingales. There is the definition
and some theorems (closure under addition) in AFP-DiscretePricing, but
nothing about super-martingales. Unfortunately, we even have two
theories of filtrations:

* Filtration.thy in AFP-DiscretePricing
* Stopping_Time.thy in HOL-Probability

I'm not aware of any work on these inequalities.

Best,
Johannes
