Abstract
This paper compares sequences of independent, mean zero random variables in a rearrangement-invariant space X on [0, 1] with sequences of disjoint copies of individual terms in the corresponding rearrangement-invariant space Z 2X on [0, ∞). The principal results of the paper show that these sequences are equivalent in X and Z 2X , respectively, if and only if X possesses the (so-called) Kruglov property. We also apply our technique to complement well-known results concerning the isomorphism between rearrangement-invariant spaces on [0, 1] and [0, ∞). Bibliography: 20 titles.
