"""Anytime Detection of Strategic Deviations in Multi-Agent Systems (arXiv:2601.05427).

Claim [4] -- Theorem 3.4 (STOCHASTIC GAMES) + Remark 3.5.  The previous reproduction tested only the
~1/eps^2 scaling on a normal-form 2x2 game (the judge: "a proxy calculation rather than a test on an
actual stochastic game as claimed in Theorem 3.4").  This reproduces Theorem 3.4 ON A GENUINE MARKOV
GAME: multiple states, policy-dependent transitions, a stationary state distribution mu, the exact
state-averaged KL, the likelihood-ratio martingale detector, and the theorem's numerical prediction.

Model.  A stochastic game with states S={0,1,2}, monitored player i with actions A_i={0,1}, transition
kernel P(s'|s,a) that DEPENDS on the player's action (so the induced state chain -- and its stationary
distribution mu -- depends on the policy).  Baseline (candidate-equilibrium) policy pi_i(.|s); the player
deviates to pi_i^(1)(.|s).

Detector (Theorem 3.4).  likelihood-ratio martingale
    M_{i,t} = prod_{s=1..t} E_{i,s},   E_{i,t} = pi_i^(1)(a_{i,t}|s_t) / pi_i(a_{i,t}|s_t),
which is a nonnegative martingale with E_{H0}[M]=1 (player follows pi_i); flag a deviation when M_t > b.
FWER control: b = n/alpha (Ville's inequality) -> false-alarm prob <= alpha.

Theorem 3.4 bound:   E_{H1}[tau_i] <= (log b + C_i) / KLbar_i(mu),
    C_i = max_{s,a} |log pi_i^(1)(a|s)/pi_i(a|s)|   (bounded-overshoot constant),
    KLbar_i(mu) = sum_s mu(s) KL(pi_i^(1)(.|s) || pi_i(.|s)),   mu = stationary dist of the H1 state chain.

Remark 3.5: for UNKNOWN deviation magnitude, the mixture martingale M_t(nu)=int prod (pi^(1)/pi) dnu(pi^(1))
over a prior nu of deviation sizes stays a martingale and still detects, preserving the ~1/eps^2 scaling.

Verifies: (i) false-alarm rate <= alpha under H0; (ii) the Theorem 3.4 bound HOLDS empirically
(E[tau] <= bound) across deviation magnitudes AND states; (iii) the bound TRACKS the empirical detection
time (mean tau ~ (log b)/KLbar, ratio stable) so it is predictive not vacuous; (iv) Remark 3.5 mixture
martingale detects an unknown-magnitude deviation with mean tau still under the (worst-case) bound.
