Complete convergence for arrays of rowwise negatively orthant dependent random variables. (English) Zbl 1260.60062

Summary: Some sufficient conditions for complete convergence for arrays of rowwise negatively orthant-dependent random variables are presented without assumptions of identical distribution. As an application, a Marcinkiewicz-Zygmund-type strong law of large numbers for weighted sums of negatively orthant-dependent random variables is obtained.
