Sharp inequality for bounded submartingales and their differential subordinates
Adam Osekowski, University of Warsaw
Abstract
Let α be a fixed number from the interval [0,1]. We obtain the sharp probability bounds for the maximal function of the process which is α-differentially subordinate to a bounded submartingale. This generalizes the previous results of Burkholder and Hammack.
