Abstract

This paper obtains the uniform estimate for maximum of sums of upper-tail independent and heavy-tailed random variables with nonnegative dependent random weights. Then the applications to ruin probabilities in a discrete time risk model with dependent gross losses and dependent stochastic returns are considered.
