Central limit theorem for a class of linear systems.
We study the question of the law of large numbers and central limit theorem for an additive functional of a Markov processes taking values in a Polish space that has Feller property under the assumption that the process is asymptotically contractive in the Wasserstein metric.
A sample of i.i.d. continuous time Markov chains being defined, the sum over each component of a real function of the state is considered. For this functional, a central limit theorem for the first hitting time of a prescribed level is proved. The result extends the classical central limit theorem for order statistics. Various reliability models are presented as examples of applications.

We consider an initial population whose size evolves according to a continuous state branching process. Then we add to this process an immigration (with the same branching mechanism as the initial population), in such a way that the immigration rate is proportional to the whole population size. We prove this continuous state branching process with immigration proportional to its own size is itself a continuous state branching process. By considering the immigration as the apparition of a new type,...
In this paper, we develop bounds on the distribution function of the empirical mean for general ergodic Markov processes having a spectral gap. Our approach is based on the perturbation theory for linear operators, following the technique introduced by Gillman.

Stochastic partial differential equations (SPDEs) whose solutions are probability-measure-valued processes are considered. Measure-valued processes of this type arise naturally as de Finetti measures of infinite exchangeable systems of particles and as the solutions for filtering problems. In particular, we consider a model of asset price determination by an infinite collection of competing traders. Each trader’s valuations of the assets are given by the solution of a stochastic differential equation,...
