On continuous conditional gaussian martingales and stable convergence in law
Continuous time random walks with jump sizes equal to the corresponding waiting times for jumps are considered. Sufficient conditions for the weak convergence of such processes are established and the limiting processes are identified. Furthermore one-dimensional distributions of the limiting processes are given under an additional assumption.
In a 1987 paper, Cambanis, Hardin and Weron defined doubly stationary stable processes as those stable processes which have a spectral representation which is itself stationary, and they gave an example of a stationary symmetric stable process which they claimed was not doubly stationary. Here we show that their process actually had a moving average representation, and hence was doubly stationary. We also characterize doubly stationary processes in terms of measure-preserving regular set isomorphisms...
The decomposition of the r.v. X with the beta second kind distribution in the form of finite (formula (9), Theorem 1) and infinity products (formula (17), Theorem 2 and form (21), Theorem 3) are presented. Next applying Mieshalkin - Rogozin theorem we receive the estimation of the difference of two c.d.f. F(x) and G(x) when sup|f(t) - g(t)| is known, improving the result of Gnedenko - Kolmogorov (formulae (23) and (24)).
We define and give the various characterizations of a new subclass of geometrically infinitely divisible random variables. This subclass, called geometrically semistable, is given as the set of all these random variables which are the limits in distribution of geometric, weighted and shifted random sums. Introduced class is the extension of, considered until now, classes of geometrically stable [5] and geometrically strictly semistable random variables [10]. All the results can be straightforward...
The well-known Bennett–Hoeffding bound for sums of independent random variables is refined, by taking into account positive-part third moments, and at that significantly improved by using, instead of the class of all increasing exponential functions, a much larger class of generalized moment functions. The resulting bounds have certain optimality properties. The results can be extended in a standard manner to (the maximal functions of) (super)martingales. The proof of the main result relies on an...
The paper contains a new and elementary proof of the fact that if α ∈ (0,1] then every scale mixture of a symmetric α-stable probability measure is infinitely divisible. This property is known to be a consequence of Kelker's result for the Cauchy distribution and some nontrivial properties of completely monotone functions. It is known that this property does not hold for α = 2. The problem discussed in the paper is still open for α ∈ (1,2).
In this paper, we study optimal transportation problems for multifractal random measures. Since these measures are much less regular than optimal transportation theory requires, we introduce a new notion of transportation which is intuitively some kind of multistep transportation. Applications are given for construction of multifractal random changes of times and to the existence of random metrics, the volume forms of which coincide with the multifractal random measures.
