Motivated by broad applications in reinforcement learning and federated learning, we study local stochastic approximation over a network of agents, where their goal is to find the root of an operator composed of the local operators at the agents. Our focus is to characterize the finite-time performance of this method when the data at each agent are generated from Markov processes, and hence they are dependent. In particular, we provide the convergence rates of local stochastic approximation for both constant and time-varying step sizes. Our results show that these rates are within a logarithmic factor of the ones under independent data. We then illustrate the applications of these results to different interesting problems in multi-task reinforcement learning and federated learning.
