Abstract

In this work, the complete moment convergence and Lp convergence for asymptotically almost negatively associated (AANA, in short) random variables are investigated. As an application, the complete convergence theorem for weighted sums of AANA random variables is obtained. These theorems obtained extend and improve some earlier results.

An infinite sequence {X n ; n ≥ 1} of random variables is said to be NA if for every finite sub-collection is NA. The concept of NA was introduced by Joag-Dev and Proschan [4], and its probability limit properties have aroused wide interest because of their numerous applications in reliability theory, percolation theory and multivariate statistical analysis. Definition 1.2 A sequence {X n ; n ≥ 1} of random variables is called AANA if there exists a nonnegative sequence q (n) → 0 as n → ∞ such that.
