First of all, hello all this is my first post i think. Congratulations on this great community
Please move my post if I'm not posting on the right forum and I'm sorry for any inconvenience.

I have this problem that I need to solve and I don't have a clue. I hope you could give me some ideas.

I need to show this: \mathop {\sup }\limits_\theta \left\| {E_\theta \left( {\hat \beta _T } \right) - b\left( \theta \right)} \right\| \to 0

knowing that:
\hat \beta _T \stackrel{T\rightarrow\infty}{\rightarrow} b\left( {\theta _0 } \right)

where \hat \beta _T is a stochastic function of y_T that comes from a distribution with true parameter \theta_0

θ and β belongs in a compact subset of R^p and R^q respectively.

The convergence apparently is non-stochastic as we've taken expectation.
A hint is to add and subtract something into the norm and use the triangle inequality to show the above claim. But, I have no idea how to treat the expectation.

I haven't supplied all info there is, but please tell me if you can think of any possible approaches for this. Any help is much appreciated

I get the feeling you should add and subtract \hat \beta_T and use its convergence and the strong law of large numbers maybe.
 
Hi all, I've been a roulette player for more than 10 years (although I took time off here and there) and it's only now that I'm trying to understand the physics of the game. Basically my strategy in roulette is to divide the wheel roughly into two halves (let's call them A and B). My theory is that in roulette there will invariably be variance. In other words, if A comes up 5 times in a row, B will be due to come up soon. However I have been proven wrong many times, and I have seen some...
Thread 'Detail of Diagonalization Lemma'
The following is more or less taken from page 6 of C. Smorynski's "Self-Reference and Modal Logic". (Springer, 1985) (I couldn't get raised brackets to indicate codification (Gödel numbering), so I use a box. The overline is assigning a name. The detail I would like clarification on is in the second step in the last line, where we have an m-overlined, and we substitute the expression for m. Are we saying that the name of a coded term is the same as the coded term? Thanks in advance.
