  • Quasi-Monte Carlo method is known to have lower convergence rate than the standard Monte Carlo method. Quasi-Monte Carlo methods are using low discrepancy sequences as quasi-random numbers. They include Halton sequence, Faure sequence, and Sobol sequence. In this article, we compared standard Monte Carlo method, quasi-Monte Carlo methods and three scrambling methods of Owen, Faure-Tezuka, Owen-Faure-Tezuka in valuation of multi-asset European call option through simulations. Moro inversion method is used in generating random numbers from normal distribution. It has been shown that three scrambling methods are superior in estimating option prices regardless of the number of assets, volatility, and correlations between assets. However, there are no big differences between them.

  • In this paper, the complete convergence and complete moment convergence for a class of random variables satisfying the Rosenthal type inequality are investigated. The sufficient and necessary conditions for the complete convergence and complete moment convergence are provided. As applications, the Baum-Katz type result and the Marcinkiewicz-Zygmund type strong law of large numbers for a class of random variables satisfying the Rosenthal type inequality are established. The results obtained in the paper extend the corresponding ones for some dependent random variables.

  • We show that every quasi-random graph $G(n)$ with $n$ vertices and minimum degree $(1+o(1))n/2$ has diameter either 2 or 3 and that every quasi-random graph $G(n)$ with n vertices has a clique number of $o(n)$ with wide spread.

  • Under some conditions on an array of rowwise independent random variables, Hu et at. (1998) obtained a complete convergence result for law of large numbers with rate {a$\_$n/, n $\geq$ 1} which is bounded away from zero. We investigate the general situation for rate {a$\_$n/, n $\geq$ 1) under similar conditions.

  • In this paper, we give a sufficient condition for convergence in probability of weighted sums of convex-compactly uniformly integrable fuzzy random variables. As a result, we obtain weak law of large numbers for weighted sums of convexly tight fuzzy random variables.

  • Let {$X_n$, $n{\geq}1$} be a sequence of asymptotically almost negatively associated random variables and $S_n=\sum^n_{i=1}X_i$. In the paper, we get the precise results of H$\acute{a}$jek-R$\acute{e}$nyi type inequalities for the partial sums of asymptotically almost negatively associated sequence, which generalize and improve the results of Theorem 2.4-Theorem 2.6 in Ko et al. ([4]). In addition, the large deviation of $S_n$ for sequence of asymptotically almost negatively associated random variables is studied. At last, the Marcinkiewicz type strong law of large numbers is given.

  • Let ${X_i{\mid}i{\geq}1}$ be a strictly stationary sequence of associated random variables with mean zero and let ${\sigma}^2=EX_1^2+2\sum\limits_{j=2}^\infty{EX_1}{X_j}$ with 0 < ${\sigma}^2$ < ${\infty}$. Set $S_n={\sum\limits^n_{i=1}^\{X_i}$, the precise asymptotics for ${\varepsilon}^{{\frac{2(r-p)}{2-p}}-1}\sum\limits_{n{\geq}1}n^{{\frac{r}{p}}-{\frac{1}{p}}+{\frac{1}{2}}}P({\mid}S_n{\mid}{\geq}{\varepsilon}n^{{\frac{1}{p}}})$,${\varepsilon}^2\sum\limits_{n{\geq}3}{\frac{1}{nlogn}}p({\mid}Sn{\mid}{\geq}{\varepsilon\sqrt{nloglogn}})$ and ${\varepsilon}^{2{\delta}+2}\sum\limits_{n{\geq}1}{\frac{(loglogn)^{\delta}}{nlogn}}p({\mid}S_n{\mid}{\geq}{\varepsilon\sqrt{nloglogn}})$ as ${\varepsilon}{\searrow}0$ are established under the suitable conditions.
