From Theorems 5 and 6, we can obtain easily the strong law of large numbers for countable Markov chains indexed by a Cayley tree [16] and the strong law of large numbers for finite Markov chains indexed by a uniformly bounded tree [15].

Strong law of large numbers for countable Markov chains indexed by an infinite tree with uniformly bounded degree

The last one is the Kolmogorov-type strong law of large numbers for pairwise NQD random variables obtained by Chen [23], which plays an important role in proving the main results of the paper.
