#!/usr/bin/env python3 """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. numpy only, deterministic seeds.
