Abstract

Let {X,Xn,n1}\{X,X_n,n\ge 1\} be a sequence of identically distributed, negatively dependent (NA) random variables under sub-linear expectations, and denote Sn=i=1nXiS_n=\sum_{i=1}^{n}X_i, n1n\ge 1. Assume that h()h(\cdot) is a positive non-decreasing function on (0,)(0,\infty) fulfulling 1(th(t))1\dift=\int_{1}^{\infty}(th(t))^{-1}\dif t=\infty. Write Lt=lnmax{\me,t}Lt=\ln \max\{\me,t\}, ψ(t)=1t(sh(s))1\difs\psi(t)=\int_{1}^{t}(sh(s))^{-1}\dif s, t1t\ge 1. In this sequel, we establish that n=1(nh(n))1\vv{Sn(1+ε)σ2nLψ(n)}<\sum_{n=1}^{\infty}(nh(n))^{-1}\vv\left\{|S_n|\ge (1+\varepsilon)\sigma\sqrt{2nL\psi(n)}\right\}<\infty, ε>0\forall \varepsilon>0 if \ee(X)=\ee(X)=0\ee(X)=\ee(-X)=0 and \ee(X2)=σ2(0,)\ee(X^2)=\sigma^2\in (0,\infty). The result generalizes that of NA random variables in probability space.
