The atom formula also provesLet . Then by Markov inequality, whileThe uniform absolute continuity for a finite measure makes the right-hand side uniformly small as . Thus is uniformly integrable. The Martingale convergence theorem now supplies an integrable random variable such that both almost surely and in .

Assume . For every pair of rationals , Doob upcrossing inequality givesby monotone convergence theorem. Thus every rational interval is upcrossed only finitely often almost surely. If a real sequence has distinct limit inferior and limit superior, it completes infinitely many upcrossings of some rational interval between them. Hence converges in the extended real line almost surely.
Fatou lemma givesso the limit is finite almost surely and integrable. This is the -bounded form of the Martingale convergence theorem.
