This paper studies the stochastic convergence and the almost sure behaviour of weighted sums of random variables of the form \(S_ n=\sum^{k=k_ n}_{k=1}a_{nk}X_ k\) where \(a_{nk}\) are scalars and \(X_ k\) are independent random variables with values in a Banach space B. The following set of assumptions is used: \[ \sum^{k_ n}_{k=1}| a_{nk}|^{\alpha}\leq \Gamma <\infty,\quad \lim_{n\to \infty}\sup_{1\leq k\leq k_ n}| a_{nk}| =0, \] \[ \lim_{s\to \infty}\sup_{n}\sup_{t\geq s}P\{\| X_ n\| \geq t\}=0. \] Then if B is of stable type \(\alpha\) \((1<\alpha <2)\) and if the variables are mean zero, the sequence \(S_ n\) converges to 0 in probability. A similar conclusion is obtained under various variants of the above assumptions. The simpler case \(\alpha <1\) is also considered (then, independence is no longer essential). Moreover, the author gives a condition under which the stochastic convergence (i.e. convergence in probability) of the sequence \(S_ n\) to 0 implies its almost sure convergence to 0.
