摘要:Limiting distributions of square-integrable infinite order U-statistics were first studied by Dynkin and Mandelbaum and Mandelbaum and Taqqu. We extend their results to the case of non-Poisson random sample size. Multiple integrals of non-Gaussian generalized fields are constructed to identify the limiting distributions. An invariance principle is also established. We use these results to study the limiting distribution of the amount of charge left in some set by an infinite system of signed M...

摘要:It is shown that a regular stationary random field on Z2 exhibits the weak (strong) commutation property if and only if its spectral density is the squared modulus of a weakly (strongly) outer function in the Hardy space H-2(T2) of the torus. Applications to prediction are discussed.

摘要:Let sigma(t) be an ergodic Markov chain on a finite state space E and for each sigma is-an-element-of E, define on R(d) the second-order elliptic operator [GRAPHICS] Then for each realization sigma(t) = sigma(t,omega) of the Markov chain, L(sigma(t)) may be thought of as a time-inhomogeneous diffusion generator. We call such a Process a diffusion in a random temporal environment or simply a random diffusion. We study the transience and recurrence properties and the central limit theorem proper...

摘要:We study the relation between stochastic domination of an infinitely divisible random vector X by another infinitely divisible random vector Y and their corresponding Levy measures. The results are used to derive a Slepian-type inequality for a general class of symmetric infinitely divisible random vectors.

摘要:A general bounded law of the iterated logarithm for Banach space valued random variables is established. Our result implies: (a) the bounded LIL of Ledoux and Talagrand, (b) a bounded LIL for random variables in the domain of attraction of a Gaussian law and (c) new LIL results for random variables outside the domain of attraction of a Gaussian law in cases where the classical norming sequence {root nLLn} does not work. Basic ingredients of our proof are an infinite-dimensional Fuk-Nagaev type...

摘要:In this paper, the authors show that the smallest (if p less-than-or-equal-to n) or the (p - n + 1)-th smallest (if p > n) eigenvalue of a sample covariance matrix of the form (1/n)XX' tends almost surely to the limit (1 - square-root y)2 as n and p/n --> y is-an-element-of (0, infinity), where X is a p x n matrix with iid entries with mean zero, variance 1 and fourth moment finite. Also, as a by-product, it is shown that the almost sure limit of the largest eigenvalue is (1 + square-root y)2,...

摘要:Let X(i), i greater-than-or-equal-to 1, be independent random variables with a common distribution in the domain of attraction of a strictly stable law, and for each n greater-than-or-equal-to 1 let X1, n less-than-or-equal-to ... less-than-or-equal-to X(n, n) denote the order statistics of X1, ..., X(n). In 1986, S. Csorgo, Horvath and Mason showed that for each sequence k(n), n greater-than-or-equal-to 1, of nonnegative integers with k(n) --> infinity and k(n)/n --> 0 as n --> infinity, the ...

摘要:A Gaussian upper bound for the iterated kernels of Markov chains is obtained under some natural conditions. This result applies in particular to simple random walks on any locally compact unimodular group G which is compactly generated. Moreover, if G has polynomial volume growth, the Gaussian upper bound can be complemented with a similar lower bound. Various applications are presented. In the process, we offer a new proof of Varopoulos' results relating the uniform decay of convolution power...

摘要:Let B be a separable Banach space and let mu be a centered Poisson probability measure on B with Levy measure M. Assume that M admits a polar decomposition in terms of a finite measure sigma on the unit sphere of B and a Levy measure rho on (0, infinity). The main result of this paper provides a complete description of the structure of l(mu), the support of mu. Specifically, it is shown that: (i) if integral(0, 1]srho(ds) = infinity, then l(mu) is a linear space and is equal to the closure of ...
