Abstract

We investigate necessary and sufficient conditions for the convergence in probability of weighted averages of random variables with infinite means. The obtained results are valid for a wide range of dependence structures, they extend and improve the corresponding theorems of Adler (2012) and Nakata (2016), established in the independent case.
