An extremal problem arising in soil erosion modeling
Strassen's invariance principle for additive functionals of Markov chains with spectral gap in the Wasserstein metric is proved.
We study the limit behavior of certain classes of dependent random sequences (processes) which do not possess the Markov property. Assuming these processes depend on a control parameter we show that the optimization of the control can be reduced to a problem of nonlinear optimization. Under certain hypotheses we establish the stability of such optimization problems.
The autoregressive process takes an important part in predicting problems leading to decision making. In practice, we use the least squares method to estimate the parameter θ̃ of the first-order autoregressive process taking values in a real separable Banach space B (ARB(1)), if it satisfies the following relation: . In this paper we study the convergence in distribution of the linear operator for ||θ̃|| > 1 and so we construct inequalities of Bernstein type for this operator.
For almost all infinite binary sequences of Bernoulli trials the frequency of blocks of length in the first terms tends asymptotically to the probability of the blocks, if increases like (for ) where tends to . This generalizes a result due to P. Flajolet, P. Kirschenhofer and R.F. Tichy concerning the case .
