Let $\{X_n\}_{n\geq 1}$ be either a sequence of arbitrary random variables, or a martingale difference sequence, or a centered sequence with a suitable level of negative dependence. We prove Baum-Katz type theorems by only assuming that the…

In this paper, we prove the equivalent conditions of complete moment convergence of the maximum for partial weighted sums of independent, identically distributed random variables under sublinear expectations space. As applications, the…

This note develops Rio's proof [C. R. Math. Acad. Sci. Paris, 1995] of the rate of convergence in the Marcinkiewicz--Zygmund strong law of large numbers to the case of sums of dependent random variables with regularly varying normalizing…

Using proof-theoretic methods in the style of proof mining, we give novel computationally effective limit theorems for the convergence of the Cesaro-means of certain sequences of random variables. These results are intimately related to…

For a sequence of identically distributed negatively associated random variables $\{X_n; n\geq 1\}$ with partial sums $S_n=\sum_{i=1}^nX_i, n\geq 1$, refinements are presented of the classical Baum-Katz and Lai complete convergence…

A short, information-theoretic proof of the Kac--Bernstein theorem, which is stated as follows, is presented: For any independent random variables $X$ and $Y$, if $X+Y$ and $X-Y$ are independent, then $X$ and $Y$ are normally distributed.

We prove a version of a general transfer theorem for random sequences with independent random indexes in the double array limit setting under relaxed conditions. We also prove its partial inverse providing the necessary and sufficient…

This paper establishes complete convergence for weighted sums and the Marcinkiewicz--Zygmund-type strong law of large numbers for sequences of negatively associated and identically distributed random variables $\{X,X_n,n\ge1\}$ with general…

This paper deals with rates of convergence in the strong law of large numbers, in the Baum-Katz form, for partial sums of Banach space valued random variables. The results are then applied to solve similar problems for weighted partial sums…

This paper presents an exposition of Rio's proof of the strong law of large numbers and extends his method to random fields. In addition to considering the rate of convergence in the Marcinkiewicz--Zygmund strong law of large numbers, we go…

The robust detection of statistical dependencies between the components of a complex system is a key step in gaining a network-based understanding of the system. Because of their simplicity and low computation cost, pairwise statistics are…

We generalize the optimal coupling theorem to multiple random variables: Given a collection of random variables, it is possible to couple all of them so that any two differ with probability comparable to the total-variation distance between…

Nualart & Pecatti ([Nualart and Peccati, 2005, Thm 1]) established the first fourth-moment theorem for random variables in a fixed Wiener chaos, i.e. they showed that convergence of the sequence of fourth moments to the fourth moment of the…

Cram\'er type moderate deviation theorems quantify the accuracy of the relative error of the normal approximation and provide theoretical justifications for many commonly used methods in statistics. In this paper, we develop a new…

For a sequence $\{X_{n}, \, n \geqslant 1 \}$ of nonnegative random variables where $\max[\min(X_{n} - s,t),0]$, $t > s \geqslant 0$, satisfy a moment inequality, sufficient conditions are given under which $\sum_{k=1}^n (X_k - \mathbb{E}…

We derive a large deviation principle for families of random variables in the basin of attraction of spectrally positive stable distributions by proving a uniform version of the Tauberian theorem for Laplace-Stieltjes transforms. The main…

Generalized gamma distributions arise as limits in many settings involving random graphs, walks, trees, and branching processes. Pek\"oz, R\"ollin, and Ross (2016, arXiv:1309.4183 [math.PR]) exploited characterizing distributional fixed…

We consider complete convergence and closely related Hsu-Robbins-Erdos-Spitzer-Baum-Katz series for sums whose terms are elements of a linear 2-nd order autoregressive sequences of random variables and prove sufficient conditions for the…

We prove a version for random measures of the celebrated Kantorovich-Rubinstein duality theorem and we give an application to the coupling of random variables which extends and unifies known results.

We derive explicit central moment inequalities for random variables that admit a Stein coupling, such as exchangeable pairs, size--bias couplings or local dependence, among others. The bounds are in terms of moments (not necessarily…
