Next, we prove following key lemma

Proof of Lemma 21. First, we prove first inequality in Lemma 21 by induction.

If k= 0,

By induction,

First, we prove second inequality in Lemma 21 by induction.

If k= 0,

By induction.

Now, we prove the first rate in Theorem 7.

For the second rates of Theorem 7, we introduce following lemma.

Now, we prove the second rates in Theorem 7.
