  • In this paper we establish the weak law of large numbers for randomly weighted partial sums of random variables and study conditions imposed on the triangular array of random weights {$W_{nj}{\;}:{\;}1{\leq}j{\leq}n,{\;}n{\geq}1$} and on the triangular array of random variables {$X_{nj}{\;}:{\;}1{\leq}j{\leq}n,{\;}{\geq}1$} which ensure that $\sum_{j=1}^{n}{\;}W_{nj}{\mid}X_{nj}{\;}-{\;}B_{nj}{\mid}$ converges In probability to 0, where {$B_{nj}{\;}:{\;}1{\;}{\leq}{\;}j{\;}{\leq}{\;}n,{\;}n{\;}{\geq}{\;}1$} is a centering array of constants or random variables.

  • Let {$X_{nj}$, 1$\leq$j$\leq$n,j$\geq$1} be a triangular array of random variables which are neither independent nor identically distributed. The almost sure convergences of randomly weighted partial sums of the form $$\sum_n^{j=1}$$ $W_{nj}$$X_{nj} are studied where {Wnj 1$\leq$j$\leq$n, j$\geq$1} is a triangular array of random weights. Application regarding the Efron bootstrap is also introduced.
