Let {Xn,n ≥ 0} be an AR（1） process. Let Q（n） be the rescaled range statistic, or the R/S statistic for {Xn} which is given by （max1≤k≤n（∑j=1^k（Xj - ^-Xn）） - min 1≤k≤n（∑j=1^k（ Xj - ^Xn ））） /（n ^-1∑j=1^n（Xj -^-Xn）^2）^1/2 where ^-Xn = n^-1 ∑j=1^nXj. In this paper we show a law of iterated logarithm for rescaled range statistics Q（n） for AR（1） model.

Complete moment and integral convergence for sums of negatively associated random variables

For a sequence of identically distributed negatively associated random variables {Xn; n ≥ 1} with partial sums Sn = ∑i=1^n Xi, n ≥ 1, refinements are presented of the classical Baum-Katz and Lai complete convergence theorems. More specifically, necessary and sufficient moment conditions are provided for complete moment convergence of the form ∑n≥n0 n^r-2-1/pq anE（max1≤k≤n｜Sk｜^1/q-∈bn^1/qp）^＋〈∞to hold where r 〉 1, q 〉 0 and either n0 = 1,0 〈 p 〈 2, an = 1,bn = n or n0 = 3,p = 2, an = 1 （log n） ^1/2q, bn=n log n. These results extend results of Chow and of Li and Spataru from the indepen- dent and identically distributed case to the identically distributed negatively associated setting. The complete moment convergence is also shown to be equivalent to a form of complete integral convergence.     

Asymptotic properties for median cross-validated nearest neighbor median estimate in nonparametric regression

Consider the nonparametric regression model , whereg is an unknown function to be estimated on [0, 1], are the fixed design points in the interval [0, 1] and is a triangular array of row iid random variables having median zero. The nearest neighbor median estimator is taken as the estimator of the unknown functiong(x). Median cross validation (mev) criterion is employed to select the smoothing parameterh. Leth _π ^* be the smoothing parameter chosen by mev criterion. Under mild regularity conditions, the upper and lower bounds ofh _π ^* , the rate of convergence and the weak consistency of the median cross-validated estimate are obtained.

In this paper we study [ _r ⁿ ] _m =Σ _k≡r(modm) ( _k ⁿ ) wherem>0,n≥0 andr are integers. We show that [ _r ⁿ ] _m (m>2) can be expressed in terms of some linearly recurrent sequences with orders not exceeding ϕ(m)/2. In particular, we determine [ _r ⁿ ] ₁₂ explicitly in terms of first order and second order recurrences. It follows that for any primep>3 we have and .

Isotropic bodies and Bourgain''''s problem

Let K (?) Rn be a convex body of volume 1 whose barycenter is at the origin, LK be the isotropic constant of K. Finding the least upper bound of LK , being called Bourgain's problem, is a well known open problem in the local theory of Banach space. The best estimate known today is LK < cn1/4 log n, recently shown by Bourgain, for an arbitrary convex body in any finite dimension. Utilizing the method of spherical section function, it is proven that if K is a convex body with volume 1 and r1Bn2 (?) K (?) r2Bn2,(r1≥1/2, r2≤(?)/2), then (?) ≤(?) and find the conditions with equality. Further, the geometric characteristic of isotropic bodies is shown.
