## Abstract

Let {X,Xn;n≥ 1} be a sequence of i.i.d. mean-zero random variables, and let Sn=Σ i=1 nXi,n≥ 1. We establish necessary and sufficient conditions for having with probability $1,0<\text{lim sup}_{n\rightarrow \infty}|S_{n}|/\sqrt{nh(n)}<\infty$, where h is from a suitable subclass of the positive, nondecreasing slowly varying functions. Specializing our result to h(n)=( log log n)p, where p > 1 and to h(n)=( log n)r, r > 0, we obtain analogues of the Hartman-Wintner LIL in the infinite variance case. Our proof is based on a general result dealing with LIL behavior of the normalized sums {Sn/cn;n≥ 1}, where cn is a sufficiently regular normalizing sequence.
