Abstract

In this paper we obtain some possibilistic variants of the probabilistic laws of large numbers, different from those obtained by other authors, but very natural extensions of the corresponding ones in probability theory. Our results are based on the possibility measure and on the "maxitive" definitions for possibility expectation and possibility variance. Also, we show that in this frame, the weak form of the law of large numbers, implies the strong law of large numbers.
