Abstract
We study the behavior of the capital process of a continuous Bayesian mixture of fixed proportion
betting strategies in the one-sided unbounded forecasting game in game-theoretic probability. We
establish the relation between the rate of convergence of the strong law of large numbers in the selfnormalized
form and the rate of divergence to infinity of the prior density around the origin. In
particular we present prior densities ensuring the validity of Erdos–Feller–Kolmogorov–Petrowsky ˝
law of the iterated logarithm.

Abstract
We consider the behaviour of Schnorr randomness, a randomness notion weaker than Martin-L\”of’s, for left-r.e. reals under Solovay reducibility. Contrasting with results on Martin-L\”of-randomenss, we show that Schnorr randomness is not upward closed in the Solovay degrees. Next, some left-r.e. Schnorr random $\alpha$ is the sum of two left-r.e. reals that are far from random. We also show that the left-r.e. reals of effective dimension $>r$, for some rational $r$, form a filter in the Solovay degrees.
