$ \text{Consider} $ $$D=|D|=\frac{\sum_{i=1}^n \sum_{j=1}^n I[|{\sqrt{T}}\hat\theta_{ij,T}|>f(n)]}{g(n)}, $$ $ \text{where}\,\, i \ne j,\, I\,\, \text {is the indicator function,}\,\,|{\hat\theta_{ij,T}}|<1, f(n)=O(ln(n)),\, g(n)=O(n^2), \text {and} f(n)/T=o(1). $ $ \text {The aim is to show that D converges almost surely to 0.} $ $ \text {Taking the expectation, I know the following:} $ $$ E|D|=\frac{\sum_{i=1}^n \sum_{j=1}^n Pr[|{\hat\theta_{ij,T}}|>f(n)]}{g(n)}\, {\le}\,\,{\sup_{ij}}\,Pr[|{\hat\theta_{ij,T}}|>f(n)] \,\, {\le} \,\, {e^{-\frac{f(n)}{\rho}}} $$ $ \text {where}\,\,{\rho}={\sup_{ij}}\, {\rho_{ij}}\,\, \text { is positive and bounded.} $ $ \text {From the Markov inequality:} $ $$ Pr(|D|>{\epsilon})\,\,{\le}\,\,\frac{E|D|}{\epsilon} \,\,{\le}\,\, \frac{{e^{-\frac{f(n)}{\rho}}}}{\epsilon} $$ $ \text {for some positive} \,\, {\epsilon} \,\, \text {and hence} \lim_{n,T\to\infty} Pr(|D|>{\epsilon})=0. $ $ \text {Is this result sufficient for D to converge almost surely to 0?} $
