On almost sure convergence for weighted sums of pairwise negatively quadrant dependent random variables

Let {Xn, n ≥ 1} be a sequence of pairwise negatively quadrant dependent (NQD) random variables. In this study, we prove almost sure limit theorems for weighted sums of the random variables. From these results, we obtain a version of the Glivenko–Cantelli lemma for pairwise NQD random variables under some fragile conditions. Moreover, a simulation study is done to compare the convergence rates with those of Azarnoosh (Pak J Statist 19(1):15–23, 2003) and Li et al. (Bull Inst Math 1:281–305, 2006).
