We are concerned with the limit distribution of l
t
-norms (of order t) of samples of i.i.d. positive random variables, as N→∞, t→∞. The problem was first considered by Schlather [(2001), Ann. Probab. 29, 862–881], but the case where {X
i
} belong to the domain of attraction of Gumbel’s double exponential law (in the sense of extreme value theory) has largely
remained open (even for an exponential distribution). In this paper, it is assumed that the log-tail distribution function
is regularly varying at infinity with index . We proceed from studying the limit distribution of the sums , which is of interest in its own right. A proper growth scale of N relative to t appears to be of the form (). We show that there are two critical points, α1 = 1 and α2 = 2, below which the law of large numbers and the central limit theorem, respectively, break down. For α < 2, under a slightly
stronger condition of normalized regular variation of h, we prove that the limit laws for S
N
(t) are stable, with characteristic exponent and skewness parameter . A complete picture of the limit laws for the norms R
N
(t) = S
N
(t)1/t
is then derived. In particular, our results corroborate a conjecture in Schlather [(2001), Ann. Probab. 29, 862–881] regarding the “endpoints” , α→ 0.

Let (, ) be a separable Banach space and let be a class of probability measures on , and let denote the symmetrization of . We provide two sufficient conditions (one in terms of certain quantiles and the other in terms of certain moments of relative to μ and , ) for the “uniform comparison” of the μ and measure of the complements of the closed balls of centered at zero, for every . As a corollary to these “tail comparison inequalities,” we show that three classical results (the Lévy-type Inequalities,
the Kwapień-Contraction Inequality, and a part of the It?–Nisio Theorem) that are valid for the symmetric (but not for the
general non-symmetric) independent -valued random vectors do indeed hold for the independent random vectors whose laws belong to any which satisfies one of the two noted conditions and which is closed under convolution. We further point out that these three
results (respectively, the tail comparison inequalities) are valid for the centered log-concave, as well as, for the strictly
α-stable (or the more general strictly (r, α) -semistable) α ≠ 1 random vectors (respectively, probability measures). We also present several examples which we believe
form a valuable part of the paper.

In this paper, we generalize the Kantorovich functional to K?the-spaces for a cost or a profit function. We examine the convergence
of probabilities with respect to this functional for some K?the-spaces. We study the Monge problem: Let
be a K?the-space, P and Q two Borel probabilities defined on a Polish space M and a cost function

is defined by
(P, Q) = inf

Under some conditions, we show the existence of a Monge function, φ, such that

An improved Poincaré inequality and validity of the Palais-Smale condition are investigated for the energy functional on , 1 < p < ∞, where Ω is a bounded domain in , is a spectral (control) parameter, and is a given function, in Ω.

kernels. We prove that the kernels are C
∞ off of the diagonal {(s, z, w) : s = 0 and z = w} and find pointwise bounds for the kernels and their derivatives.

Given a one-dimensional positive recurrent diffusion governed by the Stratonovich SDE , we show that the associated stochastic flow of diffeomorphisms focuses as fast as , where is the finite stationary measure. Moreover, if the drift is reversed and the diffeomorphism is inverted, then the path function
so produced tends, independently of its starting point, to a single (random) point whose distribution is . Applications to stationary solutions of X

In this paper, we introduce the class of
-stopping lines which generalize the planar stopping lines in Merzbach [(1980), Stochastic Process. Appl. 10, 49–63] by replacing the positive quadrant of the plane by a collection
of compact subsets of a fixed topological space. Our notion of stopping line also compliments and generalizes the stopping
sets defined in Ivanoff and Merzbach [(1995), Stochastic Process. Appl. 57, 83–98].

We geometrically construct a homology theory that generalizes the Euler characteristic mod 2 to objects in the unoriented
cobordism ring of a topological space X. This homology theory Eh
* has coefficients in every nonnegative dimension. There exists a natural transformation that for X = pt assigns to each smooth manifold its Euler characteristic mod 2. The homology theory is constructed using cobordism of stratifolds,
which are singular objects defined below. An isomorphism of graded -modules is shown for any CW-complex X. For discrete groups G, we also define an equivariant version of the homology theory Eh
*, generalizing the equivariant Euler characteristic. 相似文献

In this paper we derive a sufficient condition for the existence of extremal surfaces of a parametric functional
with a dominant area term, which do not furnish global minima of
within the class
of H
1,2-surfaces spanning an arbitrary closed rectifiable Jordan curve
that merely has to satisfy a chord-arc condition. The proof is based on the “mountain pass result” of (Jakob in Calc Var 21:401–427, 2004) which yields an unstable
-extremal surface bounded by an arbitrary simple closed polygon and Heinz’ ”approximation method” in (Arch Rat Mech Anal 38:257–267,
1970). Hence, we give a precise proof of a partial result of the mountain pass theorem claimed by Shiffman in (Ann Math 45:543–576, 1944) who only outlined a very sketchy and partially incorrect proof. 相似文献

This paper deals with a general formalism which consists in approximating a point in a nonempty set , in a real Hilbert space , by a sequence such that , where ,

system. Under suitable conditions on the parameters and the operators , we prove that this scheme generates a sequence which converges weakly to an element of . In particular, by appropriate choices of , this algorithm works for approximating common fixed points of infinite countable families of a wide class of operators which
includes -averaged quasi-nonexpansive mappings for .

Let V and V′ be 2n-dimensional vector spaces over fields F and F′. Let also Ω: V× V→ F and Ω′: V′× V′→ F′ be non-degenerate symplectic forms. Denote by Π and Π′ the associated (2n−1)-dimensional projective spaces. The sets of k-dimensional totally isotropic subspaces of Π and Π′ will be denoted by and ${\mathcal G}'_{k}$, respectively. Apartments of the associated buildings intersect and by so-called base subsets. We show that every mapping of to sending base subsets to base subsets is induced by a symplectic embedding of Π to Π′. 相似文献
