| Apr 10, 2012 at 1:11 | comment | added | Ori Gurel-Gurevich | Referring to your last paragraph: it could be that the probability of all the nodes up to level $i$, and no node of higher level to survive is exactly $P_i$. So this would give only $P_n$, so a bound without using $Q$ is out of the question. A bound of $2^n Q^n$ is trivial by a coupling argument, if the probability to survive another level is "independent of any other events that may have occurred". | |
