Abstract:  The classical version of Glivenko Cantelli theorem says: let X sub I , i = 1, 2, 3, ..be real valued r.v. with cdf F(x)  then the empirical cdf based on X sub i , i = 1,2,3,....n converges wp1 as n goes to infinity to F uniformly over R. In this talk this theorem is generalised to cover Markov chains, exchangeable sequences and regenerative sequences. Some open problems will also be posed.
