The stopped processes are nonnegative martingales. Their expectations equal the finite deterministic value . The Fatou lemma gives, for each fixed integer ,Thus every is integrable. Apply the preceding discrete-time criterion to conclude is a martingale, not merely a supermartingale. This is the nonnegative discrete-time local martingale is a martingale result; its conclusion does not extend to arbitrary continuous-time nonnegative local martingales.
