Complete moment convergence for weighted sums of extended negatively dependent random variables

Complete moment convergence for weighted sums of sequence of extended negatively dependent (END) random variables is discussed. Some new sufficient and necessary conditions of complete moment convergence for weighted sums of END random variables are obtained, which improve and extend some well-known results in the literature.     

Complete convergence and complete moment convergence for widely orthant-dependent random variables

In this paper, we first establish the complete convergence for weighted sums of widely orthant-dependent (WOD, in short) random variables by using the Rosenthal type maximal inequality. Based on the complete convergence, we further study the complete moment convergence for weighted sums of arrays of rowwise WOD random variables which is stochastically dominated by a random variable X. The results obtained in the paper generalize the corresponding ones for some dependent random variables.     

Complete moment convergence of weighted sums for arrays of negatively dependent random variables and its applications

For testing goodness-of-fit in a k cell multinomial distribution having very small frequencies, the usual chi-square approximation to the upper tail of the likelihood ratio statistic, G² is not satisfactory. A new adjustment to G² is determined on the basis of analytical investigation in terms of asymptotic bias and variance of the adjusted G² A Monte Carlo simulation is performed for several one-way tables to assess the adjustment of G² in order to obtain a closer approximation to the nomial level of significance.     

Complete convergence for weighted sums of extended negatively dependent random variables

In this article, the complete convergence for weighted sums of extended negatively dependent (END, in short) random variables without identical distribution is investigated. In addition, the complete moment convergence for weighted sums of END random variables is also obtained. As an application, the Baum–Katz type result for END random variables is established. The results obtained in the article extend the corresponding ones for independent random variables and some dependent random variables.     

Complete convergence for weighted sums of negatively dependent random variables under the sub-linear expectations

In this article, we study complete convergence theorems for weighted sums of negatively dependent random variables under the sub-linear expectations. Our results extend the corresponding results of Sung (2012 Sung, S. H. 2012. A note on the Complete convergence for weighted sums of negatively dependent random variables. Journal of Inequalities and Applications 2012:158, 10 pages. [Google Scholar]) relative to the classical probability.     

Complete convergence for arrays of rowwise negatively superadditive-dependent random variables and its applications

In this paper, the Rosenthal-type maximal inequalities and Kolmogorov-type exponential inequality for negatively superadditive-dependent (NSD) random variables are presented. By using these inequalities, we study the complete convergence for arrays of rowwise NSD random variables. As applications, the Baum–Katz-type result for arrays of rowwise NSD random variables and the complete consistency for the estimator of nonparametric regression model based on NSD errors are obtained. Our results extend and improve the corresponding ones of Chen et al. [On complete convergence for arrays of rowwise negatively associated random variables. Theory Probab Appl. 2007;52(2):393–397] for arrays of rowwise negatively associated random variables to the case of arrays of rowwise NSD random variables.     

Complete moment convergence and Lr convergence for asymptotically almost negatively associated random variables

In this paper, we investigate the complete moment convergence and L_r convergence for maximal partial sums of asymptotically almost negatively associated random variables under some general conditions. The results obtained in the paper generalize some corresponding ones for negatively associated random variables.     

Complete and complete moment convergence for i.i.d. random variables under exponential moment conditions

In this paper, we establish a complete convergence result and a complete moment convergence result for i.i.d. random variables under moment condition which is slightly weaker than the existence of the moment generating function. The main results extend and improve the related known results of Lanzinger (1998 Lanzinger, H. (1998). A Baum-Katz theorem for random variables under exponential moment conditions. Stat. Probab. Lett. 39(2):89–95.[Crossref], [Web of Science ®] , [Google Scholar]) and Gut and Stadtmüller (2011 Gut, A., Stadtmüller, U. (2011). An intermediate Baum-Katz theorem. Stat. Probab. Lett. 81(10):1486–1492.[Crossref], [Web of Science ®] , [Google Scholar]).     

Complete and complete moment convergence with applications to the EV regression models

In this paper, the complete convergence and complete moment convergence for arrays of rowwise m-extended negatively dependent (m-END, for short) random variables are established. As an application, the Marcinkiewicz-Zygmund type strong law of large numbers for m-END random variables is also achieved. By using the results that we established, we further investigate the strong consistency of the least square estimator in the simple linear errors-in-variables models, and provide some simulations to verify the validity of our theoretical results.     

Convergence for weighted sums of widely orthant dependent random variables

ABSTRACT

In this article, a complete convergence result and a complete moment convergence result are obtained for the weighted sums of widely orthant dependent random variables under mild conditions. As corollaries, the corresponding results are also obtained under the extended negatively orthant dependent setup. In particular, the complete convergence result generalizes and improves the related known works in the literature.     

On complete and complete moment convergence for weighted sums of ANA random variables and applications

In this article, the complete convergence and complete moment convergence for weighted sums of asymptotically negatively associated (ANA, for short) random variables are studied. Several sufficient conditions of the complete convergence and complete moment convergence for weighted sums of ANA random variables are presented. As an application, the complete consistency for the weighted estimator in a nonparametric regression model based on ANA random errors is established by using the complete convergence that we established. We also give a simulation to verify the validity of the theoretical result.     

On the almost sure convergence for sums of negatively superadditive dependent random vectors in Hilbert spaces and its application

Abstract

This paper develops almost sure convergence for sums of negatively superadditive dependent random vectors in Hilbert spaces, we obtain Chung type SLLN and the Jaite type SLLN for sequences of negatively superadditive dependent random vectors in Hilbert spaces. Rate of convergence is studied through considering almost sure convergence to 0 of tail series. As an application, the almost sure convergence of degenerate von Mises-statistics is investigated.     

Complete moment convergence of widely orthant dependent random variables

It is known that the dependence structure of widely orthant dependent (WOD) random variables is weaker than those of negatively associated (NA) random variables, negatively superadditive dependent (NSD) random variables, negatively orthant dependent (NOD) random variables, and extended negatively dependent (END) random variables. In this article, the results of complete moment convergence and complete convergence are presented for WOD sequence under the same moment conditions as independent sequence in classical result (Chow 1988 Chow, Y. (1988). On the rate of moment convergence of sample sums and extremes. Bull. Inst. Math. Acad. Sin. 16(3):177–201. [Google Scholar]).

Complete convergence for weighted sums of arrays of APND random variables

In this note, we introduce a new class of dependent random variables (henceforth rvs), together with some its basic properties. This class includes independent rvs and pairwise negatively dependent rvs. Some extensions of Ranjbar et al. (2008) are discussed. The complete convergence for the new class of rvs is also proved, and some results of Beak and Park (2010 Beak, J.-II., and S. T. Park. 2010. Convergence of weighted sums for arrays of negatively dependent random variables and its applications. J. Stat. Plann. Inference 140:2461–2469.[Crossref], [Web of Science ®] , [Google Scholar]) are extended to this class conveniently.     

Complete integral convergence for arrays of row-wise extended independent random variables under Sub-linear expectations

Abstract

In this paper, we establish the complete convergence and complete integral convergence for arrays of row-wise extended independent random variables under sub-linear expectation space with some conditions. At the same time we extend some complete convergence and complete integral convergence theorems from the classical probability space to the sub-linear expectation space. The results generalize corresponding results obtained by Wu et al. (2017 Zhang, L. X. 2016b. Exponential inequalities under the sub-linear expectations with applications to laws of the iterated logarithm. Science China Mathematics 59 (12):2503–26. doi: 10.1007/s11425-016-0079-1.[Crossref], [Web of Science ®] , [Google Scholar]).
