We give an expression for the expectation of max (0, S1, …, Sn) where Sk is the kth partial sum of a finite sequence of exchangeable random variables X1, …, Xn. When the Xk are also independent, the formula we give has already been obtained by Spitzer; and when the sequence is a finite segment of an infinite sequence of exchangeable random variables, it is a consequence of a theorem of Hewitt.

The main purpose of this paper is to investigate some properties of partial sums for negatively dependent random variables. By using some special numerical functions, and we get some probability inequalities and exponential inequalities of partial sums, which generalize the corresponding results for independent random variables and associated random variables. At last, exponential inequalities and Bernsteins inequality for negatively dependent random variables are presented.

We provide a unified approach for establishing even-moment bounds for partial sums for a class of weakly dependent random variables satisfying a stationarity condition. As applications, we discuss moment bounds for various types of mixing sequences. To obtain even-moment bounds, we use a ‘combinatorial argument' developed by Cox and Kim (1990).
