摘要：We determine rates of convergence of rank-based interacting diffusions and semimartingale reflecting Brownian motions to equilibrium. Bounds on fluctuations of additive functionals are obtained using Transportation Cost-Information inequalities for Markov processes. We work out various applications to the rank-based abstract equity markets used in Stochastic Portfolio Theory. For example, we produce quantitative bounds, including constants, for fluctuations of market weights and occupation tim...

摘要：In Kifer and Varadhan (Nonconventional limit theorems in discrete and continuous time via martingales, 2010) we obtained a functional central limit theorem (known also as a weak invariance principle) for sums of the form (normalized by ) where X(n), n a parts per thousand yen 0 is a sufficiently fast mixing vector process with some moment conditions and stationarity properties, F is a continuous function with polynomial growth and certain regularity properties and q (i) , i > k are positive fu...

摘要：The topic of this paper is the typical behavior of the spectral measures of large random matrices drawn from several ensembles of interest, including in particular matrices drawn from Haar measure on the classical Lie groups, random compressions of random Hermitian matrices, and the so-called random sum of two independent random matrices. In each case, we estimate the expected Wasserstein distance from the empirical spectral measure to a deterministic reference measure, and prove a concentrati...

摘要：Consider an instance of the Gaussian free field on a simply connected planar domain with boundary conditions on one boundary arc and on the complementary arc, where is the special constant . We argue that even though is defined only as a random distribution, and not as a function, it has a well-defined zero level line connecting the endpoints of these arcs, and the law of is . We construct in two ways: as the limit of the chordal zero contour lines of the projections of onto certain spaces of ...

摘要：We introduce two new concepts designed for the study of empirical processes. First, we introduce a new Orlicz norm which we call the Bernstein-Orlicz norm. This new norm interpolates sub-Gaussian and sub-exponential tail behavior. In particular, we show how this norm can be used to simplify the derivation of deviation inequalities for suprema of collections of random variables. Secondly, we introduce chaining and generic chaining along a tree. These simplify the well-known concepts of chaining...

摘要：Toeplitz covariance matrices are used in the analysis of stationary stochastic processes and a wide range of applications including radar imaging, target detection, speech recognition, and communications systems. In this paper, we consider optimal estimation of large Toeplitz covariance matrices and establish the minimax rate of convergence for two commonly used parameter spaces under the spectral norm. The properties of the tapering and banding estimators are studied in detail and are used to...

摘要：We consider the following dynamic Boolean model introduced by van den Berg et al. (Stoch. Process. Appl. 69:247-257, 1997). At time 0, let the nodes of the graph be a Poisson point process in with constant intensity and let each node move independently according to Brownian motion. At any time t, we put an edge between every pair of nodes whose distance is at most r. We study three fundamental problems in this model: detection (the time until a target point-fixed or moving-is within distance r...

摘要：It is known that if one perturbs a large iid random matrix by a bounded rank error, then the majority of the eigenvalues will remain distributed according to the circular law. However, the bounded rank perturbation may also create one or more outlier eigenvalues. We show that if the perturbation is small, then the outlier eigenvalues are created next to the outlier eigenvalues of the bounded rank perturbation; but if the perturbation is large, then many more outliers can be created, and their ...

摘要：We investigate the maximum increment of a random walk with heavy-tailed jump size distribution. Here heavy-tailedness is understood as regular variation of the finite-dimensional distributions. The jump sizes constitute a strictly stationary sequence. Using a continuous mapping argument acting on the point processes of the normalized jump sizes, we prove that the maximum increment of the random walk converges in distribution to a Fr,chet distributed random variable.

摘要：Let be a real valued L,vy process that is in the domain of attraction of a stable law without centering with norming function As an analogue of the random walk results in Vatutin and Wachtel (Probab Theory Relat Fields 143(1-2):177-217, 2009) and Doney (Probab Theory Relat Fields 152(3-4):559-588, 2012), we study the local behaviour of the distribution of the lifetime under the characteristic measure of excursions away from of the process reflected in its past infimum, and of the first passage...
