Necessary and sufficient conditions for the strong law of large numbers

Let X, X i , i∈N, be independent identically distributed random variables and let h(x,y)= h(y,x) be a measurable function of two variables. It is shown that the bounded law of the iterated logarithm, lim sup n (n log log n) −1 1≤i<j≤n h(X i ,X j) <∞ a.s., holds if and only if the following three conditions are satisfied: h is canonical for the law of X (that is, Eh(X,y)=0 for almost all y) and ...
متن کاملA Note on the Strong Law of Large Numbers
Petrov (1996) proved the connection between general moment conditions and the applicability of the strong law of large numbers to a sequence of pairwise independent and identically distributed random variables. This note examines this connection to a sequence of pairwise negative quadrant dependent (NQD) and identically distributed random variables. As a consequence of the main theorem ...

This paper investigates weak convergence of U -statistics via approximation in probability. The classical condition that the second moment of the kernel of the underlying U -statistic exists is relaxed to having 43 moments only (modulo a logarithmic term). Furthermore, the conditional expectation of the kernel is only assumed to be in the domain of attraction of the normal law (instead of the c...
متن کاملSub-bernoulli Functions, Moment Inequalities and Strong Laws for Nonnegative and Symmetrized
This paper concerns moment and tail probability inequalities and the strong law of large numbers for U-statistics with nonnegative or symmetrized kernels and their multisample and decoupled versions. SubBernoulli functions are used to obtain the moment and tail probability inequalities, which are then used to obtain necessary and sufficient conditions for the almost sure convergence to zero of ...
