In this paper, we study the almost sure convergence for sequences of asymptotically negative associated (ANA) random variables. As a result, we extend the classical Khintchine–Kolmogorov convergence theorem, Marcinkiewicz strong law of large numbers, and the three series theorem for sequences of independent random variables to sequences of ANA random variables without necessarily adding any extra conditions.

In this paper, the complete moment convergence and the integrability of the supremum for weighted sums of negatively orthant dependent (NOD, in short) random variables are presented. As applications, the complete convergence and the Marcinkiewicz-Zygmund type strong law of large numbers for NODrandom variables are obtained. The results established in the paper generalize some corresponding ones for independent random variables and negatively associated random variables.

Let{Xni,i≥1,n≥1}be an array of rowwise asymptotically almost negatively associated (AANA, in short) random variables. The complete convergence for weighted sums of arrays of rowwise AANA random variables is studied, which complements and improves the corresponding result of Baek et al. (2008). As applications, the Baum and Katz type result for arrays of rowwise AANA random variables and the Marcinkiewicz-Zygmund type strong law of large numbers for sequences of AANA random variables are obtained.

The strong law of large numbers for sequences of asymptotically almost negatively associated (AANA, in short) random variables is obtained, which generalizes and improves the corresponding one of Bai and Cheng (2000) for independent and identically distributed random variables to the case of AANA random variables. In addition, the Feller-type weak law of large number for sequences of AANA random variables is obtained, which generalizes the corresponding one of Feller (1946) for independent and identically distributed random variables.

In this paper, we give some exponential inequalities for extended independent random variables under sub-linear expectations. As an application, we obtain the strong convergence rate O(n-1/2 ln1/2 n) for the strong law of large numbers under sub-linear expectations, which generalizes some corresponding ones under the classical linear expectations.

Let {Yn, n ∊ Z} be an ergodic strictly stationary sequence of random variables with mean zero, where Z denotes the set of integers. For n ∊ N = {1, 2, …}, let Sn = Y1 + Y2 + … + Yn. The ergodic theorem, alias the strong law of large numbers, says that n–lSn → 0 as n → ∞ a.s. If the Yn's are independent and have variance one, the law of the iterated logarithm tells us that this convergence takes place at the rate in the sense that1It is our purpose here to investigate what other rates of convergence are possible for the ergodic theorem, that is to say, what sequences {bn, n ≧ 1} have the property that2for some ergodic stationary sequence {Yn, n ∊ Z}.
