SOME LIMIT THEOREMS FOR SEQUENCES OF PAIRWISE NQD RANDOM VARIABLES

In this article, the authors study some limit properties for sequences of pairwise NQD random variables, which are not necessarily identically distributed. They obtain Baum and Katz complete convergence and the strong stability of Jamison＇s weighted sums for pairwise NQD random variables, which may have different distributions. Some wellknown results are improved and extended.

Strong Law of Large Numbers and Complete Convergence for Sequences of -Mixing Random Variables

We give some theorems of strong law of large numbers and complete convergence for sequences of φ-mixing random variables. In particular, Wittmann＇s strong law of large numbers and Teicher＇s strong law of large nnumbers for independent random variables are generalized to the case of φ -minxing random variables.

In this paper the authors study the complete, weak and almost sure convergence for weighted sums of NOD random variables and obtain some new limit theorems for weighted sums of NOD random variables, which extend the corresponding theorems of Stout [1], Thrum [2] and Hu et al. [3].

Hájek-Rényi-type Inequality for a Class of Random Variable Sequences and Its Applications

In this paper, we obtain the Hejek-Renyi-type inequality for a class of random variable sequences and give some applications for associated random variable sequences, strongly positive dependent stochastic sequences and martingale difference sequences which generalize and improve the results of Prakasa Rao and Soo published in Statist. Probab. Lett., 57（2002） and 78（2008）. Using this result, we get the integrability of supremum and the strong law of large numbers for a class of random variable sequences.

THE GROWTH AND BOREL POINTS OF RANDOM ALGEBROID FUNCTIONS IN THE UNIT DISC

In this paper,we construct k-valued random analytic algebroid functions for the first time.By combining the properties of random series,we study the growth and Bor el points of random analytic algebroid functions in the unit disc and obtain some interesting theorems.

Some Remarks for Sequences of Pairwise NQD Random Variables

We first obtain the Petrov theorem for pairwise NQD（negative quadrant dependent） random variables which may have different distributions.Some well-known results are improved and extended.Next,we give an example to clarify one of the important properties of sequences of pairwise NQD random variables,so that we can point out some mistakes that have appeared in recent published papers.

On a Conjecture of an Invariance Principle for Sequences of Associated Random Variables

A finite collection of random variables, X1} —, Xm, is said to be associated if any two coordinatewise nondecreasing functions /i and /a on Rm such that Jt = fj(Xi} , Xm~) has finite variance for j = l, 2, Oov(/i,fa)>0; an infinite collection is said to be associated if every finite subcollection is. associated. Thus the concept of "association" is introduced as dependence in probability (Esary, Proschan and Walkup (1967)). It is relative to a lot of practical models, such as the percolation models, the Ising models of statistical mechanics. Therefore, some people are

Strong Stability of Linear Forms in φ-Mixing Random Variables

In this paper some new results of strong stability of linear forms in φ-mixing random variables are given. It is mainly proved that for a sequence of φ-mixing random variables {xn,n≥1} and two sequences of positive numbers {an,n≥1} and {bn,n≥1} there exist d dn∈R,n = 1,2,..., such that bn^-1∑i=1^naixi-dn→0 a.s.under some suitable conditions. The results extend and improve the corresponding theorems for independent identically distributed random variables.

Laws of the Iterated Logarithm for-mixing Random Variables with Normal Distribution

Consider a ρ-mixing sequence of identically distributed random variables with the underlying dis- tribution in the domain of attraction of the normal distribution. This paper proves that law of the iterated logarithm holds for ρ-mixing sequences of random variables. Our results generalize and improve Theorems 1.2-1.3 of Qi and Cheng （1996） from the i.i.d, case to ρ-mixing sequences.

ON THE STRONG LAW OF LARGE NUMBERS

This paper introduces the concept of BC sequences and investigates some conditions which imply the strong law of large numbers for these sequences. The authors also study the strong law of large numbers for general random variable sequences. As applications of the result the authors characterize p-smoothableness of Banach space. Some generalizations of Petrov theorem, the Marcinkiewicz-Zygmund theorem and Hoffmann-J(?)rgensen and Pisier theorem are obtained.
