چکیده

In the spirit of a classical result for Crump–Mode–Jagers processes, we prove a strong law of large numbers for fragmentation processes. Specifically, for self-similar fragmentation processes, including homogenous processes, we prove the almost sure convergence of an empirical measure associated with the stopping line corresponding to first fragments of size strictly smaller than η for 1 ≥ η > 0. Résumé. Dans l’esprit d’un résultat classique concernant les processus de Crump–Mode–Jagers, nous démontrons une loi forte des grands nombres pour des processus de fragmentation. Plus précisément, pour des processus auto-similaires de fragmentation, incluant les processus homogènes, nous prouvons la convergence presque sûre de la mesure empirique associée à la ligne d’arrêt correspondant aux premiers fragments de taille strictement plus petite qu’un η dans (0,1].

MARCINKIEWICZ-TYPE STRONG LAW OF LARGE NUMBERS FOR DOUBLE ARRAYS OF NEGATIVELY DEPENDENT RANDOM VARIABLES

In the following work we present a proof for the strong law of large numbers for pairwise negatively dependent random variables which relaxes the usual assumption of pairwise independence. Let be a double sequence of pairwise negatively dependent random variables. If for all non-negative real numbers t and , for 1 < p < 2, then we prove that (1). In addition, it also converges to 0 in ....

A 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 ...

Strong Convergence of Weighted Sums for Negatively Orthant Dependent Random Variables

We discuss in this paper the strong convergence for weighted sums of negatively orthant dependent (NOD) random variables by generalized Gaussian techniques. As a corollary, a Cesaro law of large numbers of i.i.d. random variables is extended in NOD setting by generalized Gaussian techniques.

On the Convergence Rate of the Law of Large Numbers for Sums of Dependent Random Variables

In this paper, we generalize some results of Chandra and Goswami [4] for pairwise negatively dependent random variables (henceforth r.v.’s). Furthermore, we give Baum and Katz’s [1] type results on estimate for the rate of convergence in these laws.

A strong law of large numbers for branching processes: almost sure spine events

We demonstrate a novel strong law of large numbers for branching processes, with a simple proof via measure-theoretic manipulations and spine theory. Roughly speaking, any sequence of events that eventually occurs almost surely for the spine entails the almost sure convergence of a certain sum over particles in the population.
