Martingales converging a.s.~but not in $L^1$.
\begin{example}[Martingale not converging in $L^1$]
Let $\Omega = [0,1]$, $\bP = \lambda\upharpoonright [0,1]$.
Define $X_n \coloneqq 2^n \cdot \One_{[0,2^n]}$,
and let $(\cF_n)_n$ be the canonical filtration.
Then $(X_n)_{n}$ is a Martingale
with $\bE[X_0] = 1$,
but $X_n \xrightarrow{a.s.} 0$.
\end{example}
Stopping times
\begin{example}[{Martingale such that $\bE[X_T] \neq \bE[X_0]$}]
Consider the simple random walk and $T = \inf \{n : X_n \ge 1\}$.
Obviously $X_T = 1$.
\end{example}

\begin{corollary}
Suppose that $f: \R \to \R$ is a convex function such that $f(X_n) \in L^1(\bP)$.
Suppose that $(X_n)_n$ is a martingale\footnote{In this form it means, that there is some filtration, that we don't explicitly specify}.
Suppose that $(X_n)_n$ is a martingale%
\footnote{In this form it means, that there is some filtration,

Then $(f(X_n))_n$ is a sub-martingale.

Let $X_n^\ast \coloneqq \max \{|X_1|, |X_2|, \ldots, |X_n|\}$

\item Then \[ \forall \ell > 0 .~\bP[X_n^\ast \ge \ell] \le \frac{1}{\ell} \int_{\{X_n^\ast \ell\}} |X_n| \dif \bP \le \frac{1}{\ell} \bE[|X_n|]. \]
