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.

The limiting behavior of the maximum partial sums(1/an)max1≤j≤n|∑i=1j‍Xni|is investigated, and some new results are obtained, where{Xni,i≥1,n≥1}is an array of rowwise AANA random variables and{an,n≥1}is a sequence of positive real numbers. As an application, the Chung-type strong law of large numbers for arrays of rowwise AANA random variables is obtained. The results extend and improve the corresponding ones of Hu and Taylor (1997) for arrays of rowwise independent random variables.

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.

For independent random variables, the order of growth of the convergent series Sn is studied in this paper. More specifically, if the series Sn converges almost surely to a random variable, the tail series is a well-defined sequence of random variables and converges to 0 almost surely. For the almost surely convergent series Sn, a tail series strong law of large numbers (SLLN) is constructed by investigating the duality between the limiting behavior of partial sums and that of tail series.

In this paper, we establish one general result on precise asymptotics of weighted sums for i.i.d. random variables. As a corollary, we have the results of Lanzinger and Stadtmüller [Refined Baum–Katz laws for weighted sums of iid random variables, Statist. Probab. Lett. 69 (2004) 357–368], Gut and Spătaru [Precise asymptotics in the law of the iterated logarithm, Ann. Probab. 28 (2000) 1870–1883; Precise asymptotics in the Baum–Katz and Davis laws of large numbers, J. Math. Anal. Appl. 248 (2000) 233–246], Gut and Steinebach [Convergence rates and precise asymptotics for renewal counting processes and some first passage times, Fields Inst. Comm. 44 (2004) 205–227] and Heyde [A supplement to the strong law of large numbers, J. Appl. Probab. 12 (1975) 173–175]. Meanwhile, we provide an answer for the possible conclusion pointed out by Lanzinger and Stadtmüller [Refined Baum–Katz laws for weighted sums of iid random variables, Statist. Probab. Lett. 69 (2004) 357–368].

A sequence of random variables is said to be extended negatively dependent (END) if the tails of its finite-dimensional distributions in the lower-left and upper-right corners are dominated by a multiple of the tails of the corresponding finite-dimensional distributions of a sequence of independent random variables with the same marginal distributions. The goal of this paper is to establish the strong law of large numbers for a sequence of END and identically distributed random variables. In doing so we derive some new inequalities of large deviation type for the sums of END and identically distributed random variables being suitably truncated. We also show applications of our main result to risk theory and renewal theory.
