摘要
We prove a game-theoretic version of the strong law of large numbers for submartingale differences, and use this to derive a pointwise ergodic theorem for discrete-time Markov chains with finite state sets, when the transition probabilities are imprecise, in the sense that they are only known to belong to some convex closed set of probability measures.
