Abstract

In this paper, we first study convergence rates in the law of large numbers for independent and identically distributed random variables. We obtain a strong $L^p$-convergence version and a strongly almost sure convergence version of the law of large numbers. Second, we investigate several new kinds of convergence of random variables and discuss their relations and properties.
