Exact distribution under independence of the diagonal section of the empirical copula

Arturo Erdely, José M. González–Barrios (2008)

Kybernetika

In this paper we analyze some properties of the empirical diagonal and we obtain its exact distribution under independence for the two and three- dimensional cases, but the ideas proposed in this paper can be carried out to higher dimensions. The results obtained are useful in designing a nonparametric test for independence, and therefore giving solution to an open problem proposed by Alsina, Frank and Schweizer [2].

Exact laws for sums of ratios of order statistics from the Pareto distribution

André Adler (2006)

Open Mathematics

Consider independent and identically distributed random variables {X nk, 1 ≤ k ≤ m, n ≤ 1} from the Pareto distribution. We select two order statistics from each row, X n(i) ≤ X n(j), for 1 ≤ i < j ≤ = m. Then we test to see whether or not Laws of Large Numbers with nonzero limits exist for weighted sums of the random variables R ij = X n(j)/X n(i).

Exact simulation for solutions of one-dimensional Stochastic Differential Equations with discontinuous drift

Pierre Étoré, Miguel Martinez (2014)

ESAIM: Probability and Statistics

In this note we propose an exact simulation algorithm for the solution of (1) d X t = d W t + b ¯ ( X t ) d t , X 0 = x , d X t = d W t + b̅ ( X t ) d t,   X 0 = x, where b ¯ b̅is a smooth real function except at point 0 where b ¯ ( 0 + ) b ¯ ( 0 - ) b̅(0 + ) ≠ b̅(0 −) . The main idea is to sample an exact skeleton of Xusing an algorithm deduced from the convergence of the solutions of the skew perturbed equation (2) d X t β = d W t + b ¯ ( X t β ) d t + β d L t 0 ( X β ) , X 0 = x d X t β = d W t + b̅ ( X t β ) d t + β d L t 0 ( X β ) ,   X 0 = x towardsX solution of (1) as β ≠ 0 tends to 0. In this note, we show that this convergence...

Exact slopes of the rank statistics for the two-sample case under discrete distributions

Dana Vorlíčková (1981)

Aplikace matematiky

The author studies the linear rank statistics for testing the pypothesis of randomness against the alternative of two samples provided both are drawn grom discrete (integer-valued) distributions. The weak law of large numbers and the exact slope are obtained for statistics with randomized ranks of with averaged scores.
