Plug-in estimation of level sets in a non-compact setting with applications in multivariate risk theory
This paper deals with the problem of estimating the level sets L(c) = {F(x) ≥ c}, with c ∈ (0,1), of an unknown distribution function F on ℝ+2. A plug-in approach is followed. That is, given a consistent estimator Fn of F, we estimate L(c) by Ln(c) = {Fn(x) ≥ c}. In our setting, non-compactness property is a priori required for the level sets to estimate. We state consistency results with respect to the Hausdorff distance and the volume of the symmetric difference. Our results are motivated by...

Polynomial expansions of density of power mixtures
For any given random variable Y with infinitely divisible distribution in a quadratic natural exponential family we obtain a polynomial expansion of the power mixture density of Y. We approach the problem generally, and then consider certain distributions in greater detail. Various applications are indicated and the results are also applied to obtain approximations and their error bounds. Estimation of density and goodness-of-fit test are derived.

Probability distribution solutions of a general linear equation of infinite order
Let (Ω,,P) be a probability space and let τ: ℝ × Ω → ℝ be strictly increasing and continuous with respect to the first variable, and -measurable with respect to the second variable. We obtain a partial characterization and a uniqueness-type result for solutions of the general linear equation in the class of probability distribution functions.
Probability distribution solutions of a general linear equation of infinite order, II
Let (Ω,,P) be a probability space and let τ: ℝ × Ω → ℝ be a mapping strictly increasing and continuous with respect to the first variable, and -measurable with respect to the second variable. We discuss the problem of existence of probability distribution solutions of the general linear equation . We extend our uniqueness-type theorems obtained in Ann. Polon. Math. 95 (2009), 103-114.

Properties of the induced semigroup of an Archimedean copula
It is shown that to every Archimedean copula H there corresponds a one-parameter semigroup of transformations of the interval [0,1]. If the elements of the semigroup are diffeomorphisms, then it determines a special function called the vector generator. Its knowledge permits finding a pseudoinverse y = h(x) of the additive generator of the Archimedean copula H by solving the differential equation with initial condition . Weak convergence of Archimedean copulas is characterized in terms of vector...
