Some maximal moment inequalities for partial sums of the strong mixing random variablesequence are established.These inequalities use moment sums as up-boundary and improve the corre-sponding ones obtained by Shao(1996).To show the application of the inequalities,we apply them todiscuss the asymptotic normality of the weight function estimate for the fixed design regression model.
Some exponential inequalities for partial sums of associated random variables are established. These inequalities improve the corresponding results obtained by Ioannides and Roussas (1999), and Oliveira (2005). As application, some strong laws of large numbers are given. For the case of geometrically decreasing covariances, we obtain the rate of convergence n-1/2(log log n)1/2(logn) which is close to the optimal achievable convergence rate for independent random variables under an iterated logarithm, while Ioannides and Roussas (1999), and Oliveira (2005) only got n-1/3(logn)2/3 and n-1/3(logn)5/3, separately.
