Abstract

New maximal inequalities for non-negative martingales are proved. The inequalities are tight and strengthen well-known maximal inequalities by Doob. The inequalities relate martingales to information divergence and imply convergence of XlnXXlnX bounded martingales. Similar results hold for stationary sequences.
