Borel methods of summability and ergodic theorems

Ryszard Jajte (2002)

Annales Polonici Mathematici

Passing from Cesàro means to Borel-type methods of summability we prove some ergodic theorem for operators (acting in a Banach space) with spectrum contained in ℂ∖(1,∞).

Compact hypothesis and extremal set estimators

João Tiago Mexia, Pedro Corte Real (2003)

Discussiones Mathematicae Probability and Statistics

In extremal estimation theory the estimators are local or absolute extremes of functions defined on the cartesian product of the parameter by the sample space. Assuming that these functions converge uniformly, in a convenient stochastic way, to a limit function g, set estimators for the set ∇ of absolute maxima (minima) of g are obtained under the compactness assumption that ∇ is contained in a known compact U. A strongly consistent test is presented for this assumption. Moreover, when the true...

Comparison between two types of large sample covariance matrices

Guangming Pan (2014)

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

Let { X i j } , i , j = , be a double array of independent and identically distributed (i.i.d.) real random variables with E X 11 = μ , E | X 11 - μ | 2 = 1 and E | X 11 | 4 l t ; . Consider sample covariance matrices (with/without empirical centering) 𝒮 = 1 n j = 1 n ( 𝐬 j - 𝐬 ¯ ) ( 𝐬 j - 𝐬 ¯ ) T and 𝐒 = 1 n j = 1 n 𝐬 j 𝐬 j T , where 𝐬 ¯ = 1 n j = 1 n 𝐬 j and 𝐬 j = 𝐓 n 1 / 2 ( X 1 j , ... , X p j ) T with ( 𝐓 n 1 / 2 ) 2 = 𝐓 n , non-random symmetric non-negative definite matrix. It is proved that central limit theorems of eigenvalue statistics of 𝒮 and 𝐒 are different as n with p / n approaching a positive constant. Moreover, it is also proved that such a different behavior is not observed in the average behavior...
