Hölderian Invariance Principle for Triangular Arrays of Random Variables

In this paper, we extend the Hölderian invariance principle of Lamperti [6] to the case of partial-sum processes based on a triangular array of row-wise independent random variables. As an application, we obtain necessary and sufficient conditions for the almost sure (resp. in probability) weak Hölder convergence of partial-sum processes based on bootstrapped samples.

Euclidean algorithms are Gaussian

We obtain a central limit theorem for a general class of additive parameters (costs, observables) associated to three standard Euclidean algorithms, with optimal speed of convergence. We also provide very precise asymptotic estimates and error terms for the mean and variance of such parameters. For costs that are lattice (including the number of steps), we go further and establish a local limit theorem, with optimal speed of convergence. We view an algorithm as a dynamical system restricted to rational inputs, and combine tools imported from dynamics, such as transfer operators, with various other techniques: Dirichlet series, Perron's formula, quasi-powers theorems, and the saddle-point method. Such dynamical analyses had previously been used to perform the average-case analysis of algorithms. For the present (dynamical) analysis in distribution, we require estimates on transfer operators when a parameter varies along vertical lines in the complex plane. To prove them, we adapt techniques introduced recently by Dolgopyat in the context of continuous-time dynamics (Ann. Math. 147 (1998) 357).     

Weyl type theorem and hypercyclic operators

Using a variant of the essential approximate point spectrum, we give the necessary and sufficient conditions for T for which the a-Browder's theorem or the a-Weyl's theorem holds. Also, the relation between hypercyclic operators (or supercyclic operators) and the operators which satisfy Weyl type theorem is discussed.     

The n-lie property of the Jacobian as a condition for complete integrability

We prove that an associative commutative algebra U with derivations D ₁, ..., D _n ε DerU is an n-Lie algebra with respect to the n-multiplication D ₁ ^ ? ^ D _n if the system {D ₁, ..., D _n } is in involution. In the case of pairwise commuting derivations this fact was established by V. T. Filippov. One more formulation of the Frobenius condition for complete integrability is obtained in terms of n-Lie multiplications. A differential system {D ₁, ..., D _n } of rank n on a manifold M ^m is in involution if and only if the space of smooth functions on M is an n-Lie algebra with respect to the Jacobian Det(D _i u _j ).     

Divisibility properties of a class of binomial sums

We study congruence and divisibility properties of a class of combinatorial sums that involve products of powers of two binomial coefficients, and show that there is a close relationship between these sums and the theorem of Wolstenholme. We also establish congruences involving Bernoulli numbers, and finally we prove that under certain conditions the sums are divisible by all primes in specific intervals.     

On Morrey’s estimate of the Sobolev norms of solutions of elliptic equations

We give a complete proof of Morrey’s estimate for the W ^1,p -norm of a solution of a second-order elliptic equation on a domain in terms of the L ₁-norm of this solution. The dependence of the constant in this estimate on the coefficients of the equation is investigated.     

Unified Solution of the Expected Maximum of a Discrete Time Random Walk and the Discrete Flux to a Spherical Trap

Two random-walk related problems which have been studied independently in the past, the expected maximum of a random walker in one dimension and the flux to a spherical trap of particles undergoing discrete jumps in three dimensions, are shown to be closely related to each other and are studied using a unified approach as a solution to a Wiener-Hopf problem. For the flux problem, this work shows that a constant c = 0.29795219 which appeared in the context of the boundary extrapolation length, and was previously found only numerically, can be derived analytically. The same constant enters in higher-order corrections to the expected-maximum asymptotics. As a byproduct, we also prove a new universal result in the context of the flux problem which is an analogue of the Sparre Andersen theorem proved in the context of the random walker's maximum.     

Weighted sharing three values and Brosch's theorem

This paper studies the idea of weighted sharing and proves two main theorems which generalize some results given by G. Brosch, Q. Zhang and other authors.     

The improved LaSalle-type theorems for stochastic functional differential equations

The main aim of this paper is to improve some results obtained by Mao [X. Mao, The LaSalle-type theorems for stochastic functional differential equations, Nonlinear Stud. 7 (2000) 307-328]. Our new theorems give better results while conditions imposed are much weaker than in the paper mentioned above. For example, we need only the local Lipschitz condition but neither the linear growth condition nor the bounded moment condition on the solutions. To guarantee the existence and uniqueness of the global solution to the underlying stochastic functional differential equation (SFDE) under the weaker conditions imposed in this paper, we establish a generalised existence-and-uniqueness theorem which covers a wider class of nonlinear SFDEs as demonstrated by the examples discussed in this paper. Moreover, from our improved results follow some new criteria on the stochastic asymptotic stability for SFDEs.
