Strong laws of large numbers for lightly trimmed sums of generalized Oppenheim expansions

Abstract: In the framework of generalized Oppenheim expansions we prove strong law of large numbers for lightly trimmed sums. In the first part of this work we identify a particular class of expansions for which we provide a convergence result assuming that only the largest summand is deleted from the sum; this result generalizes a strong law recently proven for the Luroth case. In the second part we drop any assumptions concerning the structure of the Oppenheim expansions and we prove a result concerning trimmed sums when at least two summands are trimmed; then we derive a corollary for the case in which only the largest summand is deleted from the sum.
