The Marcinkiewics-Zygmund strong law of large numbers for dependent random variables. (English) Zbl 1434.60099
Summary: In this paper, we provide a necessary and sufficient condition for the Marcinkiewics-Zygmund strong law of large numbers to hold, for an AANA sequence of non-identically distributed random variables. Our results complete and strengthen a similar result due to T. K. Chandra and S. Ghosal [Acta Math. Hung. 71, No. 4, 327–336 (1996; Zbl 0853.60032)]. We also show that the obtained method applies in the NSD setting.
