Let X={Xi,i≥1} be a sequence of real valued random variables, S0=0 and Sk=∑i=1kXi  (k≥1). Let σ={σ(x),x∈Z} be a sequence of real valued random variables which are independent of X’s. Denote by Kn=∑k=0nσ(⌊Sk⌋)  (n≥0) Kesten-Spitzer random walk in random scenery, where ⌊a⌋ means the unique integer satisfying ⌊a⌋≤a<⌊a⌋+1. It is assumed that σ’s belong to the domain of attraction of a stable law with index 0<β<2. In this paper, by employing conditional argument, we investigate large deviation inequalities, some sufficient conditions for Chover-type laws of the iterated logarithm and the cluster set for random walk in random scenery Kn. The obtained results supplement to some corresponding results in the literature.

Let X1, X2,… be independent, but not necessarily identically distributed random variables in the domain of attraction of a stable law with index 0<a<2. This paper uses Mn=max 1?i?n|Xi| to establish a self-normalized law of the iterated logarithm (LIL) for partial sums. Similarly self-normalized increments of partial sums are studied as well. In particular, the results of self-normalized sums of Horváth and Shao[9]under independent and identically distributed random variables are extended and complemented. As applications, some corresponding results for self-normalized weighted sums of iid random variables are also concluded.

AbstractLet X1, X2, …, be a sequence of independent random variables with common distribution function F in the domain of attraction of a stable law and, for each n ≥ 1, let X1, n ≤ … ≤ Xn, n denote the order statistics based on the first n of these random variables. It is shown that sums of the middle portion of the order statistics of the form , where (kn)n ≥ 1 is a sequence of non-negative integers such that kn → ∞ and kn/n → 0 as n → ∞ at an appropriate rate, can be normalized and centred so that the law of the iterated logarithm holds. The method of proof is based on the almost sure properties of weighted uniform empirical processes.
