Chover-Type Laws of the Iterated Logarithm for Kesten-Spitzer Random Walks in Random Sceneries Belonging to the Domain of Stable Attraction
Abstract
Let X={Xi,i≥1} be a sequence of real valued random variables, S0=0 and Sk=∑i=1kXi (k≥1). Let σ={σ(x),x∈Z} be a sequence of real valued random variables which are independent of X’s. Denote by Kn=∑k=0nσ(⌊Sk⌋) (n≥0) Kesten-Spitzer random walk in random scenery, where ⌊a⌋ means the unique integer satisfying ⌊a⌋≤a<⌊a⌋+1. It is assumed that σ’s belong to the domain of attraction of a stable law with index 0<β<2. In this paper, by employing conditional argument, we investigate large deviation inequalities, some sufficient conditions for Chover-type laws of the iterated logarithm and the cluster set for random walk in random scenery Kn. The obtained results supplement to some corresponding results in the literature.
