Let n X ,n 1 be a sequence of i.i.d. random variables with a common distribution function F with
1 EX 0 . Let n

S X , n 1
and
n

decreasing and continuous on [0,1] with f(1) 1. Let k n be an integer sequence such
that,

Z B T A , where n

(A ) and n

(B 0) are sequences of norming
constants with n

Z and
a density version of a local limit theorem when distribution function F belongs to the domain
of partial attraction of a semistable law.
