Abstract: Let $X_1, X_2, \cdots $ be a sequence of dependent and heavy-tailed random variables with distributions $F_1, F_2,\cdots$ on $(-\infty,\infty)$, and let $\tau$ be a nonnegative integer-valued random variable independent of the sequence $\{X_k, k \ge 1\}$. In this framework, the asymptotic behavior of the tail probabilities of the quantities $S_n =\sum\limits_{k=1}^n X_k$ and $S_{(n)}=\max\limits_{1\le k\le n} S_k$ for $n>1$, and their randomized versions $S_{\tau}$ and $S_{(\tau)}$ are studied. Some applications to the risk theory are presented.
