Tóm tắt

The almost sure limiting behavior of weighted sums of independent and identically distributed random variables barely with or without finite mean are established. Results for these partial sums, $$\sum\limits_{k = 1}^n {k^\alpha X_k ,} \alpha \in R$$ have been studied, but only when α=−1 or α=0. As it turns out, the two cases of major interest are α=−1 and α>−1. The purpose of this article is to examine the latter.
