Let $f(n)$ be a strongly additive complex valued arithmetic function. Under mild conditions on $f$, we prove the following weighted strong law of large numbers: if $ X,X_1,X_2,... $ is any sequence of integrable i.i.d. random variables,…

We consider moderately trimmed sums of non-negative i.i.d. random variables. We show that for every distribution function there exists a proper moderate trimming such that for the trimmed sum a non-trivial strong law of large numbers holds.…

We consider (graph-)group-valued random element $\xi$, discuss the properties of a mean-set $\ME(\xi)$, and prove the generalization of the strong law of large numbers for graphs and groups. Furthermore, we prove an analogue of the…

The validity of the strong law of large numbers for multiple sums $S_n$ of independent identically distributed random variables $Z_k$, $k\leq n$, with $r$-dimensional indices is equivalent to the integrability of $|Z|(\log^+|Z|)^{r-1}$,…

We consider the problem of estimating the Fr\'echet and conditional Fr\'echet mean from data taking values in separable metric spaces. Unlike Euclidean spaces, where well-established methods are available, there is no practical estimator…

Random monotone operators are stochastic versions of maximal monotone operators which play an important role in stochastic nonsmooth optimization. Several stochastic nonsmooth optimization algorithms have been shown to converge to a zero of…

We study a generalization of the Fr\'echet mean on metric spaces, which we call $\phi$-means. Our generalization is indexed by a convex function $\phi$. We find necessary and sufficient conditions for $\phi$-means to be finite and provide a…

We analyze the stability of (strong) laws of large numbers in Hadamard spaces with respect to distributional perturbations. For the inductive means of a sequence of independent, but not necessarily identically distributed random variables,…

Estimating the mean of a random vector from i.i.d. data has received considerable attention, and the optimal accuracy one may achieve with a given confidence is fairly well understood by now. When the data take values in more general metric…

We prove a strong law of large numbers for a class of strongly mixing processes. Our result rests on recent advances in understanding of concentration of measure. It is simple to apply and gives finite-sample (as opposed to asymptotic)…

A general method to obtain strong laws of large numbers is studied. The method is based on abstract H\'ajek-R\'enyi type maximal inequalities. The rate of convergence in the law of large numbers is also considered. Some applications for…

Let $(M,g)$ be a Riemannian manifold. If $\mu$ is a probability measure on $M$ given by a continuous density function, one would expect the Fr\'{e}chet means of data-samples $Q=(q_1,q_2,\dots, q_N)\in M^N$, with respect to $\mu$, to behave…
