Abstract

Consider weighted sums of independent variables with a common distribution function in the domain of attraction of a stable law. Peng and Qi (2003) established the Chover-type law of the iterated logarithm. This paper extends the law to a larger class of weighted sums. As an application, it is shown that the Chover-type law of the iterated logarithm for products of sums holds when the underlying distribution is in the domain of attraction of a stable law with an exponent larger than one.
