The property of a Markov measure
By a Markov measure you mean, that for some stochastic kernel $K$ on the measurable space $(A,2^A)$ it holds that $P$ is the induced measure on $A^\Bbb N$?

What does an open set men in your context?

How identify bounded Borel measurable functions
Do you mean $\langle f,\mu\rangle := \int_S f(x)\mu(\mathrm dx)$ for any $\mu \in M(S)$ and bounded Borel $f$?

Expected distance of a random point to the convex hull of N other points
Do you assume a fixed probability space (=dependence structure between $X$ and $Y$), or you only know distributions?
comment
Distribution of maximum of random walk conditioned to stay positive
There is a way to solve this problem even for more general Markov processes, but could you please tell me more precise about your conditioning. In your case $\mathsf P(Y_k\geq 0\;\forall k) = 0$ so I guess you are interested rather in $$ \mathsf P(M_n \geq m|Y_k\geq 0 \; \forall 0\leq k\leq n) $$ am I right?

Upper bound concerning Snell envelope
@Paul: I'm not sure whether it's true. Let $X\equiv \frac 12$ and let $p = 2$, then LHS is $\frac14$ and RHS is $\frac1{16}$, so your philosophy does not apply at least in such case.
comment
Upper bound concerning Snell envelope
@Paul: are you sure you have to take $p$ power in the RHS two times? Or you are just asking the question in the math.stackexchange version?

Coupling of vectors
@Anthony: I agree - and I am pretty sure that one come up with a maximal coupling of $P$ and $\hat P$ doing it sequentially - I just wondered whether it's possible for the maximal coupling which satisfies one more additional assumption (aka $\gamma$-coupling according to Lindvall).

Coupling of vectors
As far as I've checked your example, it is correct - thanks again. I guess, I shall accept you answer - but could you suggest how to compute $\Bbb P(X_1 = \hat X_1)$ or maybe you know how to express $\Bbb P(X\in A,\hat X\in \hat A)$?

Coupling of vectors
Thank you. Do you have a reference for the proof of the last formula? It's like a Fubini theorem, but I've never seen a proof of its version for kernels. Also, in your first example, do you mean that $P$ and $\hat P$ in place of $\mu$ and $\hat \mu$ - just to keep it consistent with the notation in OP?

Tails of sums of Weibull random variables
I guess, the following reference may be useful for you, it's also pretty recent: An Introduction to Heavy-Tailed and Subexponential Distributions, 2011. Perhaps, available in Russian as well. Furthermore, this paper provides untight rates of convergence which hold however even in case you only have first two moments
