For sequences of independent and identically distributed random variables it is well known that the existence of the second moment implies the law of the iterated logarithm. We show that the law of the iterated logarithm does not extend to arrays of independent and identically distributed random variables and we develop an analogous rate result for such arrays under finite fourth moments.

Introduction. Let Xi (i= 1, 2, 3,…) be a sequence of independent and identically distributed random variables with law ℒ(X) and write The Kolmogorov-Marcinkiewicz strong law of large numbers (Loève(6), p. 243) has the following statement:If E|X|r < ∞, then with cr = 0 or EX according as r 1 or r ≥ 1.

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}.

This work proposes the concept of uncorrelation for fuzzy random variables, which is weaker than independence. For the sequence of uncorrelated fuzzy variables, weak and strong law of large numbers are studied under the uniform Hausdorff metric d H ∞ . The results generalize the law of large numbers for independent fuzzy random variables.

The present paper is devoted to complete convergence and the strong law of large numbers under moment conditions near those of the law of the single logarithm (LSL) for independent and identically distributed arrays. More precisely, we investigate limit theorems under moment conditions which are stronger than $2p$ for any $p<2$, in which case we know that there is almost sure convergence to 0, and weaker than $E\,X^{4}/(\log ^{+}|X|)^{2}<\infty$, in which case the LSL holds.

The strong law of large numbers for independent and identically distributed random variables Xi, i = 1,2,3, …, with finite mean µ can be stated as, for any ∊ > 0, the number of integers n such that |n−1 Σi=1nXi − μ| > ∊, N(∊), is finite a.s. It is known, furthermore, that EN(∊) < ∞ if and only if EX12 < ∞. Here it is shown that if EX12 < ∞ then ∊2EN(∊)→ var X1 as ∊ → 0.
