A Baum-Katz theorem for random variables under exponential moment conditions

Author

Listed:
  • Lanzinger, Hartmut

Abstract

We prove a Baum-Katz law for partial sums of i.i.d. random variables under moment conditions slightly below the existence of the moment generating function. This particularly sheds some additional light on a strong law of large numbers recently established by the author.
