Abstract: We establish an exact asymptotic formula for the square variation of certain partial sum processes. Let Xi be a sequence of independent, identically distributed mean zero random variables with finite variance sigma and satisfying a moment condition mathbbE[|Xi|2+delta]<infty for some delta>0. If we let mathcalPN denote the set of all possible partitions of the interval [N] into subintervals, then we have that maxpiinmathcalPNsumIinpi|sumiinIXi|2sim2sigma2Nlnln(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.
