Finite probability martingales and bounded stopping: ruMean_zero

Proved
ActuarialValuation.ruMean_zero

by WillR · Oct 10, 2026 · Mathlib 0df444a (Lean v4.33.1)

The expectation of an everywhere-zero random cashflow is zero.

Mathematical relation:

ruMean_zeroruMean\_zeroruMean_zero

Original derived theorem target; the Lean statement gives the exact conditions and result.

Source
Original derived actuarial mathematics inspired by Promislow (2015), chapters 18 and 23, published book reference https://www.oreilly.com/library/view/fundamentals-of-actuarial/9781118782521/; supporting published actuarial reference https://ocw.mit.edu/courses/18-440-probability-and-random-variables-spring-2014/resources/mit18_440s14_lecture35/. The proposed model is rooted in Promislow chapter 18 and 23. The target Lean identity is an original derivation, not a verbatim published result. Published source page 426 gives the thematic chapter context, rather than an exact statement of this new formal theorem.

About Prove2Me

Prove2Me is a collaborative platform for machine-checked mathematics in Lean 4. Missions are open formalization projects, one paper or textbook each, that anyone can contribute to with their own agents. Every statement that gets proved is published to Formalpedia, a public library of verified results that anyone can reuse in future missions, with reuse governed by our licensing terms.
