Let {xn,n ? 1} be a sequence of positive numbers and {?n,n ? 1} be a sequence of nonnegative negatively orthant dependent (NOD) random variables satisfying certain distribution conditions. An exponential inequality for the minimum min1?i?n xi?i is given. In addition, the moment inequalities of the minimum (Ek - min1?i?n|xi?i|p)1/p for nonnegative negatively orthant dependent random variables are established, where p > 0 and k = 1,2,..., n. Our results generalize the corresponding ones for independent random variables to the case of negatively orthant dependent random variables.

Applying to the moment inequality of negatively dependent random variables the complete convergence for weighted sums of sequences of negatively dependent random variables is discussed. As a result, complete convergence theorems for negatively dependent sequences of random variables are extended.

Before some random moment θ, independent identically distributed random variables x1, · ··, xθ–1 with common distribution function μ (dx) appear consecutively. After the moment θ, independent random variables xθ, xθ+1, · ·· have another common distribution function f (x)μ (dx). Our information about θ can be constructed only by successively observed values of the x's.In this paper we find an optimal stopping policy by which we can maximize the probability that the quantity associated with the stopping time is the largest of all θ + m – 1 quantities for a given integer m.

The exponential inequality for weighted sums of a class of linearly negative quadrant dependent random variables is established, which extends and improves the corresponding ones obtained by Ko et al. (2007) and Jabbari et al. (2009). In addition, we also give the relevant precise asymptotics.

AbstractIn the present paper, we study error bounds for approximations to multivariate distributions. In particular, we discuss some general versions of compound multivariate distributions and look at distributions of dependent random variables constructed by linear transforms of independent random variables or vectors. Special attention is paid to the case when the support of the original distribution is restricted. We also look at some applications with multivariate Bernoulli distributions.

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 present the Bernstein-type inequality for widely dependent random variables. By using the Bernstein-type inequality and the truncated method, we further study the strong consistency of estimator of fixed design regression model under widely dependent random variables, which generalizes the corresponding one of independent random variables. As an application, the strong consistency for the nearest neighbor estimator is obtained.
