Concentration inequalities for semi-bounded martingales
ESAIM: Probability and Statistics, Tome 12 (2008), pp. 51-57.

In this paper, we apply the technique of decoupling to obtain some exponential inequalities for semi-bounded martingale, which extend the results of de la Peña, Ann. probab. 27 (1999) 537-564.
