On the convergence of the Bhattacharyya bounds in the multiparametric case

Abdulghani Alharbi (1994)

Applicationes Mathematicae

Shanbhag (1972, 1979) showed that the diagonality of the Bhattacharyya matrix characterizes the set of normal, Poisson, binomial, negative binomial, gamma or Meixner hypergeometric distributions. In this note, using Shanbhag's techniques, we show that if a certain generalized version of the Bhattacharyya matrix is diagonal, then the bivariate distribution is either normal, Poisson, binomial, negative binomial, gamma or Meixner hypergeometric. Bartoszewicz (1980) extended the result of Blight and...

On the convergence of the ensemble Kalman filter

Jan Mandel, Loren Cobb, Jonathan D. Beezley (2011)

Applications of Mathematics

Convergence of the ensemble Kalman filter in the limit for large ensembles to the Kalman filter is proved. In each step of the filter, convergence of the ensemble sample covariance follows from a weak law of large numbers for exchangeable random variables, the continuous mapping theorem gives convergence in probability of the ensemble members, and L p bounds on the ensemble then give L p convergence.

On the convergence of the stochastic Galerkin method for random elliptic partial differential equations

Antje Mugler, Hans-Jörg Starkloff (2013)

ESAIM: Mathematical Modelling and Numerical Analysis - Modélisation Mathématique et Analyse Numérique

In this article we consider elliptic partial differential equations with random coefficients and/or random forcing terms. In the current treatment of such problems by stochastic Galerkin methods it is standard to assume that the random diffusion coefficient is bounded by positive deterministic constants or modeled as lognormal random field. In contrast, we make the significantly weaker assumption that the non-negative random coefficients can be bounded strictly away from zero and infinity by random...

On the convergence of the wavelet-Galerkin method for nonlinear filtering

Łukasz D. Nowak, Monika Pasławska-Południak, Krystyna Twardowska (2010)

International Journal of Applied Mathematics and Computer Science

The aim of the paper is to examine the wavelet-Galerkin method for the solution of filtering equations. We use a wavelet biorthogonal basis with compact support for approximations of the solution. Then we compute the Zakai equation for our filtering problem and consider the implicit Euler scheme in time and the Galerkin scheme in space for the solution of the Zakai equation. We give theorems on convergence and its rate. The method is numerically much more efficient than the classical Galerkin method....

On the core property of the cylinder functions class in the construction of interacting particle systems

Anja Voss-Böhme (2011)

Kybernetika

For general interacting particle systems in the sense of Liggett, it is proven that the class of cylinder functions forms a core for the associated Markov generator. It is argued that this result cannot be concluded by straightforwardly generalizing the standard proof technique that is applied when constructing interacting particle systems from their Markov pregenerators.

On the coupling property of Lévy processes

René L. Schilling, Jian Wang (2011)

Annales de l'I.H.P. Probabilités et statistiques

We give necessary and sufficient conditions guaranteeing that the coupling for Lévy processes (with non-degenerate jump part) is successful. Our method relies on explicit formulae for the transition semigroup of a compound Poisson process and earlier results by Mineka and Lindvall–Rogers on couplings of random walks. In particular, we obtain that a Lévy process admits a successful coupling, if it is a strong Feller process or if the Lévy (jump) measure has an absolutely continuous component.

On the decomposition of particle size distribution in the extraction replica method

Vratislav Horálek (1981)

Aplikace matematiky

This paper deals with the method for evaluating exposures of nickel alloy structures containing both extracted and sectioned particles. The presented stereological model makes it possible to estimate two unknown spatial parameters, the mean value of the particle size distribution and the depth of etching with the use of the information obtained from the combined structure of the exposures.

On the density of some Wiener functionals: an application of Malliavin calculus.

Antoni Sintes Blanc (1992)

Publicacions Matemàtiques

Using a representation as an infinite linear combination of chi-square independent random variables, it is shown that some Wiener functionals, appearing in empirical characteristic process asymptotic theory, have densities which are tempered in the properly infinite case and exponentially decaying in the finite case.
