In the present paper, a generalization of the first part of the Borel-Cantelli lemma is obtained by the recent work of Balakrishnan and Stepanov (2010). This generalization is further applied to derive strong limit results for the sequence…

In this short note, we discuss the Barndorff-Nielsen lemma, which is a generalization of well-known Borel-Cantelli lemma. Although the result stated in the Barndorff-Nielsen lemma is correct, it does not follow from the argument proposed in…

We obtain new lower and upper bounds for probabilities of unions of events.These bounds are sharp. They are stronger than earlier ones. General bounds maybe applied in arbitrary measurable spaces.We have improved the method that has been…

We give a version of the Borel-Cantelli lemma. As an application, we prove an almost sure local central limit theorem. As another application, we prove a dynamical Borel-Cantelli lemma for systems with sufficiently fast decay of…

We discuss some conditional generalized Borel-Cantelli lemmas and investigate their quantitative versions following the ideas of Arthan and Oliva (arXiv: 2012.09942).

We quantify the elementary Borel-Cantelli Lemma by higher moments of the overlap count statistic in terms of the weighted summability of the probabilities. Applications include mean deviation frequencies in the Strong Law and the Law of the…

In [1], Theorem 3, the authors proved, in one dimension, a generalization of the Hopf Lemma, and the question arose if it could be extended to higher dimensions. In this paper we present two conjectures as possible extensions, and give a…

Let $\{A_n\}_{n=1}^\infty$ be a sequence of events and let $\displaystyle S:=\sum_{n=1}^\infty 1_{A_n}$. We present in this note equivalent characterizations for the statements $\mathbb{P} (S<\infty)=1$ and $\mathbb{P} (S=\infty)=1$…

We prove an explicit finite-sample version of the Borel--Cantelli lemma under $m$-dependence. Given any $m$-dependent sequence of events $(A_k)_{1\leq k\leq N}$, we show that \[ \mathbb{P}\Bigl(\bigcup_{k=1}^N A_k\Bigr) \ge 1 -…

Let $(X,T,\mu,d)$ be a metric measure-preserving system for which $3$-fold correlations decay exponentially for Lipschitz continuous observables. Suppose that $(M_k)$ is a sequence satisfying some weak decay conditions and suppose there…

Multiple Borel-Cantelli Lemma is a criterion that characterizes the occurrence of multiple rare events on the same time scale. We generalize the multiple Borel-Cantelli Lemma in dynamics established by Dolgopyat, Fayad and Liu [J. Mod. Dyn.…

Let $\{A_n\}_{n=1}^{\infty}$ be a sequence of events on a probability space $(\Omega,\mathcal{F},\mathbf{P})$. We show that if $\lim_{m\to\infty}\sum_{n=1}^{m}w_n\mathbf{P}(A_n)=\infty$ where each $w_n\in\mathbb{R}$, then…

In this paper we present a quantitative analysis of the first and second Borel-Cantelli Lemmas and of two of their generalisations: the Erd\H{o}s-R\'enyi Theorem, and the Kochen-Stone Theorem. We will see that the first three results have…

The object of this paper is to generalize a theorem on the binomial coefficient [4] to the case in an arithmetic progression. We will also give a slightly stronger result than Langevin's [2].
