Monotonicity of gives, for each ,Hence ; the additional term is finite by continuity at one. Also as , since a positive limiting lower bound would make the integral diverge.
By Brownian scaling, has law . Apply the small-value bound for the Brownian running maximum to obtainSumming yields the requested finite probability sum. The argument needs no independence of these nested-time events.
