Abstract: We establish an exact asymptotic formula for the square variation of certain partial sum processes. Let $X_i$ be a sequence of independent, identically distributed mean zero random variables with finite variance $sigma$ and satisfying a moment condition $mathbbE[|X_i{|}^{2+delta}]<infty$ for some $delta>0$. If we let $mathcal{P}_N$ denote the set of all possible partitions of the interval $[N]$ into subintervals, then we have that $ma{x}_{piinmathcal{P}_N}su{m}_{Iinpi}|su{m}_{iinI}{X}_i{|}^{2}sim2sigm{a}^{2}Nlnln(N)$ holds almost surely. This can be viewed as a variational strengthening of the law of the iterated logarithm and refines results of J. Qian on partial sum and empirical processes. When $delta=0$, we obtain a weaker `in probability' version of the result.
