On the Glivenko–Cantelli theorem for generalized empirical processes based on strong mixing sequences

Given \s{X_i, i 1\s} as non-stationary strong mixing (n.s.s.m.) sequence of random variables (r.v.'s) let, for 1 i n and some γ ε 0, 1],

F₁(x)=γP(X_i<x)+(1-γ)P(X_ix)

and

I_i(x)=γI(X_i<x)+(1-γ)I(X_ix)

. For any real sequence \s{C_i\s} satisfying certain conditions, let

.

In this paper an exponential type of bound for P(D_n ), for any >0, and a rate for the almost sure convergence of D_n are obtained under strong mixing. These results generalize those of Singh (1975) for the independent and non-identically distributed sequence of r.v.'s to the case of strong mixing.
