Complete convergence for arrays of minimal order statistics
For arrays of independent Pareto random variables, this paper establishes complete convergence for weighted partial sums for the smaller order statistics within each row. This result improves on past strong laws. Moreover, it shows that we can obtain a finite nonzero limit for our normalized partial...

Summary: | For arrays of independent Pareto random variables, this paper establishes complete convergence for weighted partial sums for the smaller order statistics within each row. This result improves on past strong laws. Moreover, it shows that we can obtain a finite nonzero limit for our normalized partial sums under complete convergence even though the first moment of our order statistics is infinite. |
