Exponential transforms of the reverse Bessel martingale #
For a fixed horizon and fixed exponential coefficient, an affine transform of the reverse Bessel martingale remains a martingale. Conditional Jensen then makes its exponential a nonnegative submartingale. This is the load-bearing process needed to apply Doob's finite-horizon maximal inequality to a whole sample-size epoch.
The coefficient, center, and deterministic penalty are fixed before process time. In particular, this module does not claim that a coefficient depending on the moving prefix size produces a submartingale. It also does not yet connect the endpoint expectation to the finite-product empirical-variance MGF or state a PAC-Bayes result.
