Limit theorems for U-statistics indexed by a one dimensional random walk

Nadine Guillotin-Plantard, Véronique Ladret (2005)

Similarity:

Let ( S n ) n 0 be a -random walk and ( ξ x ) x be a sequence of independent and identically distributed -valued random variables, independent of the random walk. Let h be a measurable, symmetric function defined on 2 with values in . We study the weak convergence of the sequence 𝒰 n , n , with values in D [ 0 , 1 ] the set of right continuous real-valued functions with left limits, defined by i , j = 0 [ n t ] h ( ξ S i , ξ S j ) , t [ 0 , 1 ] . Statistical applications are presented, in particular we prove a strong law of large numbers for...

Large deviations for independent random variables – Application to Erdös-Renyi’s functional law of large numbers

Jamal Najim (2005)

ESAIM: Probability and Statistics

Similarity:

A Large Deviation Principle (LDP) is proved for the family 1 n 1 n 𝐟 ( x i n ) · Z i n where the deterministic probability measure 1 n 1 n δ x i n converges weakly to a probability measure R and ( Z i n ) i are d -valued independent random variables whose distribution depends on x i n and satisfies the following exponential moments condition: sup i , n 𝔼 e α * | Z i n | < + forsome 0 < α * < + . In this context, the identification of the rate function is non-trivial due to the absence of equidistribution. We rely on fine convex analysis to address this issue. Among...

Dominant eigenvalue problem for positive integral operators and its solution by Monte Carlo method

Jan Kyncl (1998)

Applications of Mathematics

Similarity:

In this paper, a method of numerical solution to the dominant eigenvalue problem for positive integral operators is presented. This method is based on results of the theory of positive operators developed by Krein and Rutman. The problem is solved by Monte Carlo method constructing random variables in such a way that differences between results obtained and the exact ones would be arbitrarily small. Some numerical results are shown.
