Kolmogorov’s strong law of large numbers


Let X1,X2, be a sequenceMathworldPlanetmath of independentPlanetmathPlanetmath random variablesMathworldPlanetmath, with finite expectations. The strong law of large numbersMathworldPlanetmath holds if one of the following conditions is satisfied:

  1. 1.

    The random variables are identically distributed;

  2. 2.

    For each n, the variance of Xn is finite, and

    n=1Var[Xn]n2<.
