Central limit theorem for coloured hard dimers.
We prove the central limit theorem for symmetric diffusion processes with non-zero drift in a random environment. The case of zero drift has been investigated in e.g. [18], [7]. In addition we show that the covariance matrix of the limiting Gaussian random vector corresponding to the diffusion with drift converges, as the drift vanishes, to the covariance of the homogenized diffusion with zero drift.
A special case of a Gibbsian facet process on a fixed window with a discrete orientation distribution and with increasing intensity of the underlying Poisson process is studied. All asymptotic joint moments for interaction U-statistics are calculated and the central limit theorem is derived using the method of moments.
A sample of i.i.d. continuous time Markov chains being defined, the sum over each component of a real function of the state is considered. For this functional, a central limit theorem for the first hitting time of a prescribed level is proved. The result extends the classical central limit theorem for order statistics. Various reliability models are presented as examples of applications.

We consider a sequence of stochastic processes with continuous trajectories and we show conditions for the tightness of the sequence in the Hölder space with a parameter .
Random measures derived from a stationary process of compact subsets of the Euclidean space are introduced and the corresponding central limit theorem is formulated. The result does not require the Poisson assumption on the process. Approximate confidence intervals for the intensity of the corresponding random measure are constructed in the case of fibre processes.
We prove a central limit theorem for linear triangular arrays under weak dependence conditions. Our result is then applied to dependent random variables sampled by a -valued transient random walk. This extends the results obtained by [N. Guillotin-Plantard and D. Schneider, Stoch. Dynamics3 (2003) 477–497]. An application to parametric estimation by random sampling is also provided.
We prove the central limit theorem for the integrated square error of multivariate box-spline density estimators.
In a spiked population model, the population covariance matrix has all its eigenvalues equal to units except for a few fixed eigenvalues (spikes). This model is proposed by Johnstone to cope with empirical findings on various data sets. The question is to quantify the effect of the perturbation caused by the spike eigenvalues. A recent work by Baik and Silverstein establishes the almost sure limits of the extreme sample eigenvalues associated to the spike eigenvalues when the population and the...
In this paper, we study the fluctuations of the extreme eigenvalues of a spiked finite rank deformation of a Hermitian (resp. symmetric) Wigner matrix when these eigenvalues separate from the bulk. We exhibit quite general situations that will give rise to universality or non-universality of the fluctuations, according to the delocalization or localization of the eigenvectors of the perturbation. Dealing with the particular case of a spike with multiplicity one, we also establish a necessary and...
In many applications, one needs to make statistical inference on the parameters defined by the limiting spectral distribution of an F matrix, the product of a sample covariance matrix from the independent variable array (Xjk)p×n1 and the inverse of another covariance matrix from the independent variable array (Yjk)p×n2. Here, the two variable arrays are assumed to either both real or both complex. It helps to find the asymptotic distribution of the relevant parameter estimators associated with the...
Using the Perron-Frobenius operator we establish a new functional central limit theorem for non-invertible measure preserving maps that are not necessarily ergodic. We apply the result to asymptotically periodic transformations and give a specific example using the tent map.
In this paper, we are concerned with the large limit of the distributions of linear combinations of the entries of a Brownian motion on the group of unitary matrices. We prove that the process of such a linear combination converges to a Gaussian one. Various scales of time and various initial distributions are considered, giving rise to various limit processes, related to the geometric construction of the unitary Brownian motion. As an application, we propose a very short proof of the asymptotic...
