Abstract
This paper provides sharp sufficient conditions for almost sure summability of the maximal normed partial sums of m-dependent random elements in stable type p Banach spaces, complementing recent results of Li, Qi, and Rosalsky (Trans Amer Math Soc 368(1):539–561, 2016) and Thành (Math Nachr 296(1):402–423, 2023). The main theorems are new even when the underlying random elements are independent. Our proof is direct and can be extended to other dependence structures. Two illustrative examples are also presented.
