      30 years ago the reviewer extended the classical Baum-Katz theorem on convergence rates in the law of large numbers to random fields, more particulary, to random variables indexed by \(\mathbb{Z}^+_d\), the positive integer lattice points. The probabilities involved were of the form \(P(|S_{{\mathbf n}}|> \varepsilon|{\mathbf n}|^\alpha)\), where \({\mathbf n}= (n_1,n_2,\dots, n_d)\) and \(|{\mathbf n}|^\alpha\) is to interpreted as \(\prod^d_{k=1} n^\alpha_k\). This result was extended by the author to the case when the coordinates were raised to different powers, viz., \(|{\mathbf n}|^\alpha\) is replaced by \(\prod^d_{k=1} n^{\alpha_k}_k\) under certain conditions. Another aspect on convergence rates is to investigate the rate of convergence to infinity of the sum in terms of \(\varepsilon\) as \(\varepsilon\to 0\). For the classical Baum-Katz case this was done by the reviewer and Spătaru, and for the generalized case this is done in the paper under review.
