摘要:Let E be a locally compact Hausdorff space with countable basis and let (X(i))(i epsilon N) be a family of random elements on E with (1/n) Sigma(i=1)(n) L (X(i)) double right arrow(>)v mu(n --> infinity) for a measure mu with parallel to mu parallel to less than or equal to 1. Conditions are derived under which L ((1/n) Sigma(i=1)(n) (delta)X(i)) double right arrow(w) delta(mu)(n --> infinity), where delta(x), denotes the Dirac measure at x. The proof being based on Stein's method, there are g...

摘要:A connection between structural studies of stationary non-Gaussian stable processes and the ergodic theory of nonsingular flows is established and exploited. Using this connection, a unique decomposition of a stationary stable process into three independent stationary parts is obtained. It is shown that the dissipative part of a flow generates a mixed moving average part of a stationary stable process, while the identity part of a flow essentially gives the harmonizable part. The third part of...

摘要:This paper gives sharp bounds on the eigenvalues of a natural random walk on the group of upper triangular n x n matrices over the field of characteristic p, an odd prime, with 1's on the diagonal. In particular, this includes the finite Heisenberg groups as a special case. As a consequence we get bounds on the time required to achieve randomness for these walks. Some of the steps are done using the geometric bounds on the eigenvalues of Diaconis and Stroock. However, the crucial step is done ...

摘要:A principle of large deviations from the McKean-Vlasov Limit is derived for a class of measure-valued jump processes. It is shown that the associated rate function admits several representations, including the one obtained by entropy methods and the one derived by a pathwise approach.

摘要:We consider the full weak convergence, in appropriate function spaces, of systems of noninteracting particles undergoing critical branching and following a self-similar spatial motion with stationary increments. The limit processes are measure-valued, and are of the super and historical process type. In the case in which the underlying motion is that of a fractional Brownian motion, we obtain a characterization of the limit process as a kind of stochastic integral against the historical proces...

摘要:Let S be a countable set and Lambda the collection of all subsets of S. We consider interacting particle systems (IPS) {eta(t)} on Lambda, with duals {<(eta)over tilde>(t)}, and duality equation P[\eta(t)(xi)boolean AND A\ odd] = (P) over tilde[\<(eta)over tilde>(A)(t) A boolean AND xi\ odd], xi, A subset of S, A finite. Under certain conditions we find all the extreme invariant distributions that arise as limits of translation invariant initial configurations. Specific systems will be conside...

摘要:A slow point from the left for Brownian motion is a time during a given interval for which the oscillations of the path immediately to the left of this time are smaller than the typical ones, that is, those given by the local LIL. These slow points occur at random times during a given interval. For historical super-Brownian motion, the support at a fixed time contains an infinite collection of paths. This paper makes use of a branching process description of the support to investigate the slow...

摘要:The purpose of this paper is to prove a characterization of the conditional independence of two independent random Variables given a particular functional of them, in terms of a factorization property. As an application we discuss the Markov field property for solutions of stochastic differential equations with a boundary condition involving the values of the process at times t = 0 and t = 1.

摘要:Let W be a real-valued, two-parameter Brownian sheet. Let us define N(t; h) to be the total number of bubbles of W in [0, t](2), whose maximum height is greater than h. Evidently, lim(h down arrow 0) N(t; h) = infinity and lim(t) (up arrow) (infinity) N(t; h) = infinity. It is the goal of this paper to provide fairly accurate estimates on N(t; h) both as t --> infinity and as h --> 0. Loosely speaking, we show that there are of order h(-3) many such bubbles as h down arrow 0 and t(3) many, as ...
