Abstract: Consider a (possibly infinite) exchangeable sequence X={X_n:1leqn<N}, where Nin Ncup {infty}, with values in a Borel space (A,A), and note X_n=(X_1,...,X_n). We say that X is Hoeffding decomposable if, for each n, every square integrable, centered and symmetric statistic based on X_n can be written as an orthogonal sum of n U-statistics with degenerated and symmetric kernels of increasing order. The only two examples of Hoeffding decomposable sequences studied in the literature are i.i.d. random variables and extractions without replacement from a finite population. In the first part of the paper we establish a necessary and sufficient condition for an exchangeable sequence to be Hoeffding decomposable, that is, called weak independence. We show that not every exchangeable sequence is weakly independent, and, therefore, that not every exchangeable sequence is Hoeffding decomposable. In the second part we apply our results to a class of exchangeable and weakly independent random vectors X_n^{(alpha, c)}=(X_1^{(alpha, c)},...,X_n^{(alpha, c)}) whose law is characterized by a positive and finite measure alpha (cdot) on A and by a real constant c. For instance, if c=0, X_n^{(alpha, c)} is a vector of i.i.d. random variables with law alpha (cdot)/alpha (A); if A is finite, alpha (cdot) is integer valued and c=-1, X_n^{(alpha, c)} represents the first n extractions without replacement from a finite population; if c>0, X_n^{(alpha, c)} consists of the first n instants of a generalized P'olya urn sequence.
