As mentioned in Chapter 5, one of the most powerful techniques to derive limit theorems for partial sums associated with a sequence of random variables which is mixing in some sense is the coupling of the initial sequence by an independent one having the same marginal. In this chapter, we shall see how the coupling results mentioned in Section 5.1.3 are very useful to derive uniform laws of large numbers for mixing sequences. The uniform laws of large numbers extend the classical laws of large numbers from a single function to a collection of such functions. We shall address this question for sequences of random variables that are either absolutely regular, or ϕ‎-mixing, or strongly mixing. In all the obtained results, no condition is imposed on the rates of convergence to zero of the mixing coefficients.

In this paper, we consider the laws of large numbers with infinite means based on ?-mixing sequences. An exact weak law and a strong law are obtained for ?-mixing asymmetrical Cauchy random variables. It is also presented that the weak law cannot extend to a strong law. In addition, some simulations are presented to illustrate our results of the laws of large numbers.

Let 0 < p ≤ 2, let {Xn; n ≥ 1} be a sequence of independent copies of a real-valued random variable X, and set Sn = X1 + . . . + Xn, n ≥ ­ 1. Motivated by a theorem of Mikosch 1984, this note is devoted to establishing a strong law of large numbers for the sequence {max1≤k≤n |Sk| ; n ≥ ­ 1}. More specifically, necessary and sufficient conditions are given forlimn→∞ max1≤k≤n |Sk|log n−1 = e1/p a.s.,where log x = loge max{e, x}, x ≥­ 0.

In this work, we prove a weak law and a strong law of large numbers through the concept of [Formula: see text]-product for dependent random variables, in the context of nonextensive statistical mechanics. Applications for the consistency of estimators are presented and connections with stochastic processes are discussed.

We prove the almost sure representation, a law of the iterated logarithm and an invariance principle for the statistic Fˆn(Un) for a class of strongly mixing sequences of random variables {Xi,i≥1}. Stationarity is not assumed. Here Fˆn is the perturbed empirical distribution function and Un is a U-statistic based on X1,…,Xn.
