Skorokhod representation theorem. If a sequence of probability measures μₙ on converges weakly to a probability measure μ, then there exist random variables Yₙ and Z on a common probability space (Ω, P) such that each Yₙ has law μₙ, Z has law μ, and Yₙ → Z almost surely. This is the standard device for converting weak convergence into a.s. convergence.
