Book Almost Sure Invariance Principles for Partial Sums of Weakly Dependent Random Variables

Download or read book Almost Sure Invariance Principles for Partial Sums of Weakly Dependent Random Variables written by Walter Philipp and published by American Mathematical Soc.. This book was released on 1975 with total page 146 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A strong revival of interest in the law of the iterated logarithm and related asymptotic fluctuation results has occurred in the last decade, stimulated by two remarkable papers by Volker Strassen. In these papers, Strassen introduces a new method for establishing such fluctuation results for sums of independent random variables and for martingales. Strassen's almost sure invariance principle for martingales states that each martingale satisfying a certain second moment condition is with probability on "close" to a Brownian motion. In this monograph we investigate the asymptotic fluctuation behavior of sums of weakly dependent random variables, such as lacunary trigonometric mixing, and Gaussian sequences.

Book Strong Approximations in Probability and Statistics

Download or read book Strong Approximations in Probability and Statistics written by M. Csörgo and published by Academic Press. This book was released on 2014-07-10 with total page 287 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Strong Approximations in Probability and Statistics presents strong invariance type results for partial sums and empirical processes of independent and identically distributed random variables (IIDRV). This seven-chapter text emphasizes the applicability of strong approximation methodology to a variety of problems of probability and statistics. Chapter 1 evaluates the theorems for Wiener and Gaussian processes that can be extended to partial sums and empirical processes of IIDRV through strong approximation methods, while Chapter 2 addresses the problem of best possible strong approximations of partial sums of IIDRV by a Wiener process. Chapters 3 and 4 contain theorems concerning the one-time parameter Wiener process and strong approximation for the empirical and quantile processes based on IIDRV. Chapter 5 demonstrate the validity of previously discussed theorems, including Brownian bridges and Kiefer process, for empirical and quantile processes. Chapter 6 illustrate the approximation of defined sequences of empirical density, regression, and characteristic functions by appropriate Gaussian processes. Chapter 7 deal with the application of strong approximation methodology to study weak and strong convergence properties of random size partial sum and empirical processes. This book will prove useful to mathematicians and advance mathematics students.

Book Selected Works of R M  Dudley

Download or read book Selected Works of R M Dudley written by Evarist Giné and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2010-08-13 with total page 481 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For almost fifty years, Richard M. Dudley has been extremely influential in the development of several areas of Probability. His work on Gaussian processes led to the understanding of the basic fact that their sample boundedness and continuity should be characterized in terms of proper measures of complexity of their parameter spaces equipped with the intrinsic covariance metric. His sufficient condition for sample continuity in terms of metric entropy is widely used and was proved by X. Fernique to be necessary for stationary Gaussian processes, whereas its more subtle versions (majorizing measures) were proved by M. Talagrand to be necessary in general. Together with V. N. Vapnik and A. Y. Cervonenkis, R. M. Dudley is a founder of the modern theory of empirical processes in general spaces. His work on uniform central limit theorems (under bracketing entropy conditions and for Vapnik-Cervonenkis classes), greatly extends classical results that go back to A. N. Kolmogorov and M. D. Donsker, and became the starting point of a new line of research, continued in the work of Dudley and others, that developed empirical processes into one of the major tools in mathematical statistics and statistical learning theory. As a consequence of Dudley's early work on weak convergence of probability measures on non-separable metric spaces, the Skorohod topology on the space of regulated right-continuous functions can be replaced, in the study of weak convergence of the empirical distribution function, by the supremum norm. In a further recent step Dudley replaces this norm by the stronger p-variation norms, which then allows replacing compact differentiability of many statistical functionals by Fréchet differentiability in the delta method. Richard M. Dudley has also made important contributions to mathematical statistics, the theory of weak convergence, relativistic Markov processes, differentiability of nonlinear operators and several other areas of mathematics. Professor Dudley has been the adviser to thirty PhD's and is a Professor of Mathematics at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology.

Book Limit Theorems for Associated Random Fields and Related Systems

Download or read book Limit Theorems for Associated Random Fields and Related Systems written by Aleksandr Vadimovich Bulinskii and published by World Scientific. This book was released on 2007 with total page 447 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume is devoted to the study of asymptotic properties of wide classes of stochastic systems arising in mathematical statistics, percolation theory, statistical physics and reliability theory. Attention is paid not only to positive and negative associations introduced in the pioneering papers by Harris, Lehmann, Esary, Proschan, Walkup, Fortuin, Kasteleyn and Ginibre, but also to new and more general dependence conditions. Naturally, this scope comprises families of independent real-valued random variables. A variety of important results and examples of Markov processes, random measures, stable distributions, Ising ferromagnets, interacting particle systems, stochastic differential equations, random graphs and other models are provided. For such random systems, it is worthwhile to establish principal limit theorems of the modern probability theory (central limit theorem for random fields, weak and strong invariance principles, functional law of the iterated logarithm etc.) and discuss their applications. There are 434 items in the bibliography. The book is self-contained, provides detailed proofs, for reader's convenience some auxiliary results are included in the Appendix (e.g. the classical Hoeffding lemma, basic electric current theory etc.). Contents: Random Systems with Covariance Inequalities; Moment and Maximal Inequalities; Central Limit Theorem; Almost Sure Convergence; Invariance Principles; Law of the Iterated Logarithm; Statistical Applications; Integral Functionals. Readership: Researchers in modern probability and statistics, graduate students and academic staff of the universities.

Book High Dimensional Probability VI

Download or read book High Dimensional Probability VI written by Christian Houdré and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-04-19 with total page 372 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is a collection of papers by participants at High Dimensional Probability VI Meeting held from October 9-14, 2011 at the Banff International Research Station in Banff, Alberta, Canada. High Dimensional Probability (HDP) is an area of mathematics that includes the study of probability distributions and limit theorems in infinite-dimensional spaces such as Hilbert spaces and Banach spaces. The most remarkable feature of this area is that it has resulted in the creation of powerful new tools and perspectives, whose range of application has led to interactions with other areas of mathematics, statistics, and computer science. These include random matrix theory, nonparametric statistics, empirical process theory, statistical learning theory, concentration of measure phenomena, strong and weak approximations, distribution function estimation in high dimensions, combinatorial optimization, and random graph theory. The papers in this volume show that HDP theory continues to develop new tools, methods, techniques and perspectives to analyze the random phenomena. Both researchers and advanced students will find this book of great use for learning about new avenues of research.​

Book Probability Approximations and Beyond

Download or read book Probability Approximations and Beyond written by Andrew Barbour and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2011-12-07 with total page 166 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In June 2010, a conference, Probability Approximations and Beyond, was held at the National University of Singapore (NUS), in honor of pioneering mathematician Louis Chen. Chen made the first of several seminal contributions to the theory and application of Stein’s method. One of his most important contributions has been to turn Stein’s concentration inequality idea into an effective tool for providing error bounds for the normal approximation in many settings, and in particular for sums of random variables exhibiting only local dependence. This conference attracted a large audience that came to pay homage to Chen and to hear presentations by colleagues who have worked with him in special ways over the past 40+ years. The papers in this volume attest to how Louis Chen’s cutting-edge ideas influenced and continue to influence such areas as molecular biology and computer science. He has developed applications of his work on Poisson approximation to problems of signal detection in computational biology. The original papers contained in this book provide historical context for Chen’s work alongside commentary on some of his major contributions by noteworthy statisticians and mathematicians working today.
