Fourier and Hermite series estimates of regression functions

Summary In the paper we estimate a regressionm(x)=E {Y|X=x} from a sequence of independent observations (X ₁,Y ₁),…, (X _n, Y_n) of a pair (X, Y) of random variables. We examine an estimate of a type , whereN depends onn andϕ _N is Dirichlet kernel and the kernel associated with the hermite series. Assuming, that E|Y|<∞ and |Y|≦γ≦∞, we give condition for to converge tom(x) at almost allx, provided thatX has a density. if the regression hass derivatives, then converges tom(x) as rapidly asO(nC^{−(2s−1)/4s}) in probability andO(n ^{−(2s−1)/4s} logn) almost completely.

Integration of a zonal function related to the local harmonic analysis on spheres

In studying local harmonic analysis on the sphere Sⁿ, R.S.

Linear Volterra Integral Equations as the Limit of Discrete Systems

We consider the multidimensional abstract linear integral equation of Volterra type x（t） （*）∫Rtα（s)x(s)ds=f(t),t∈R,（1）as the limit of discrete Stieltjes-type systems and we prove results on the existence of continuous solutions. The functions x, α and f are Bauach space-valued defined on a compact interval R of R^n Rt is a subinterval of R depending on t ∈ R and (*) f denotes either the Bochner-Lebesgue integral or the Henstock integral. The results presented here generalize those in [1] and are in the spirit of [3]. As a consequence of our approach, it is possible to study the properties of (1) by transferring the properties of the discrete systems, The Henstock integral setting enables us to consider highly oscillating functions.
