Maximal Inequalities for Dependent Random Variables and Applications

For a sequence {Xn,n≥1} of dependent square integrable random variables and a sequence {bn,n≥1} of positive numbers, we establish a maximal inequality for weighted sums of dependent random variables. Applying this inequality, we obtain the almost sure convergence of ∑i=1nXi/bi and â...
