Abstract: | Summary LetX1,X2,..., be i.i.d. random variables andSn=X1+X2+. +Xn. In this paper we simplify Rogozin's condition forSn/Bn ±1for someBn+, which generalises Hinin's condition for relative stability ofSn. We also consider convergence of subsequences ofSn/Bn. As an application of our methods, we extend a result of Chow and Robbins to show thatSn/Bn±1 a.s. for someBn + if and only if 0<¦EX¦E¦X¦<+ . |
