It is also shown that, for X in the Feller class, the sequence of self-normalized sums is stochastically bounded if and only if      

Sharp Conditions for the CLT of Linear Processes in a Hilbert Space

In this paper we study the behavior of sums of a linear process associated to a strictly stationary sequence with values in a real separable Hilbert space and are linear operators from H to H. One of the results is that satisfies the CLT provided are i.i.d. centered having finite second moments and . We shall provide an example which shows that the condition on the operators is essentially sharp. Extensions of this result are given for sequences of weak dependent random variables under minimal conditions.

Evolution systems and perturbations of generators of strongly continuous groups

Suppose A generates a strongly continuous linear group on a Banach space X and B is a linear operator on X. It is shown that an extension of generates a strongly continuous semigroup if and only if the family of operators has an appropriate evolution system. This produces simple sufficient conditions for an extension of to generate a strongly continuous semigroup, including

Summary. Let We say that preserves the distance d 0 if for each implies Let A _n denote the set of all positive numbers d such that any map that preserves unit distance preserves also distance d. Let D _n denote the set of all positive numbers d with the property: if and then there exists a finite set S _xy with such that any map that preserves unit distance preserves also the distance between x and y.

Convergence of series of translations

For a mean zero norm one sequence (f _n )L ₂[0, 1], the sequence (f _n {nx+y}) is an orthonormal sequence inL ₂([0, 1]²); so if , then converges for a.e. (x, y)[0, 1]² and has a maximal function inL ₂([0, 1]²). But for a mean zerofL ₂[0, 1], it is harder to give necessary and sufficient conditions for theL ₂-norm convergence or a.e. convergence of . Ifc _n 0 and , then this series will not converge inL ₂-norm on a denseG subset of the mean zero functions inL ₂[0, 1]. Also, there are mean zerofL[0, 1] such that never converges and there is a mean zero continuous functionf with a.e. However, iff is mean zero and of bounded variation or in some Lip() with 1/2<1, and if |c _n | = 0(n ^–) for >1/2, then converges a.e. and unconditionally inL ₂[0, 1]. In addition, for any mean zerof of bounded variation, the series has its maximal function in allL _p[0, 1] with 1p<. Finally, if (f _n )L [0, 1] is a uniformly bounded mean zero sequence, then is a necessary and sufficient condition for to converge for a.e.y and a.e. (x _n )[0, 1]. Moreover, iffL [0, 1] is mean zero and , then for a.e. (x _n )[0, 1], converges for a.e.y and in allL _p [0, 1] with 1p<. Some of these theorems can be generalized simply to other compact groups besides [0, 1] under addition modulo one.
