Almost sure limit theorems for stable distributions

Consider a sequence of i.i.d. random variables in the domain of attraction of a stable distribution with an exponent in (0,2]. A universal result in almost sure limit theorem for the partial sums is established. Our results substantially extend and improve those on the almost sure central limit theorem previously obtained by Jonsson 2007, Berkes and Csáki 2001, and Hörmann 2007.     

Central Limit Theorem Started at a Point for?Stationary Processes and Additive Functionals of?Reversible Markov Chains

In this paper we study the almost sure central limit theorem started at a point for additive functionals of a stationary and ergodic Markov chain via a martingale approximation in the almost sure sense. Some of the results provide sufficient conditions for general stationary sequences. We use these results to study the quenched CLT for additive functionals of reversible Markov chains.     

Strong approximation for sums of asymptotically negatively dependent Gaussian sequences with applications

By applying the Skorohod martingale embedding method, a strong approximation theorem for partial sums of asymptotically negatively dependent (AND) Gaussian sequences, under polynomial decay rates, is established. As applications, the law of the iterated logarithm, the Chung-type law of the iterated logarithm and the almost sure central limit theorem for AND Gaussian sequences are derived.     

Almost sure central limit theorems on the Wiener space

In this paper, we study almost sure central limit theorems for sequences of functionals of general Gaussian fields. We apply our result to non-linear functions of stationary Gaussian sequences. We obtain almost sure central limit theorems for these non-linear functions when they converge in law to a normal distribution.     

Functional limit theorems for generalized quadratic variations of Gaussian processes

In this paper, we establish functional convergence theorems for second order quadratic variations of Gaussian processes which admit a singularity function. First, we prove a functional almost sure convergence theorem, and a functional central limit theorem, for the process of second order quadratic variations, and we illustrate these results with the example of the fractional Brownian sheet (FBS). Second, we do the same study for the process of localized second order quadratic variations, and we apply the results to the multifractional Brownian motion (MBM).     

An almost sure invariance principle for stationary ergodic sequences of Banach space valued random variables

Summary In this paper we establish an almost sure invariance principle with an error termo((t log logt)^1/2) (ast) for partial sums of stationary ergodic martingale difference sequences taking values in a real separable Banach space. As partial sums of weakly dependent random variables can often be well approximated by martingales, this result also leads to almost sure invariance principles for a wide class of stationary ergodic sequences such as ø-mixing and -mixing sequences and functionals of such sequences. Compared with previous related work for vector valued random variables (starting with an article by Kuelbs and Philipp [27]), the present approach leads to a unification of the theory (at least for stationary sequences), moment conditions required by earlier authors are relaxed (only second order weak moments are needed), and our proofs are easier in that we do not employ estimates of the rate of convergence in the central limit theorem but merely the central limit theorem itself.     

A RANDOM FUNCTIONAL CENTRAL LIMIT THEOREM FOR PROCESSES OF PRODUCT SUMS OF LINEAR PROCESSES GENERATED BY MARTINGALE DIFFERENCES＊＊＊

A random functional central limit theorem is obtained for processes of partial sums and product sums of linear processes generated by non-stationary martingale differences. It devel-ops and improves some corresponding results on processes of partial sums of linear processes generated by strictly stationary martingale differences, which can be found in [5].     

Central limit theorem for triangular arrays of non-homogeneous Markov chains

In this paper we obtain the central limit theorem for triangular arrays of non-homogeneous Markov chains under a condition imposed to the maximal coefficient of correlation. The proofs are based on martingale techniques and a sharp lower bound estimate for the variance of partial sums. The results complement an important central limit theorem of Dobrushin based on the contraction coefficient.     

Conditioned rates of convergence in the CLT for sums and maximum sums

An interesting recent result of Landers and Roggé (1977, Ann. Probability5, 595–600) is investigated further. Rates of convergence in the conditioned central limit theorem are developed for partial sums and maximum partial sums, with positive mean and zero mean separately, of sequences of independent identically distributed random variables. As corollaries we obtain a conditioned central limit theorem for maximum partial sums both for positive and zero mean cases.     

Sampling per mode for rare event simulation in switching diffusions

A straightforward application of an interacting particle system to estimate a rare event for switching diffusions fails to produce reasonable estimates within a reasonable amount of simulation time. To overcome this, a conditional “sampling per mode” algorithm has been proposed by Krystul in [10]; instead of starting the algorithm with particles randomly distributed, we draw in each mode, a fixed number particles and at each resampling step, the same number of particles is sampled for each visited mode. In this paper, we establish a law of large numbers as well as a central limit theorem for the estimate.     

Central limit theorem and almost sure central limit theorem for the product of some partial sums

In this paper, we give the central limit theorem and almost sure central limit theorem for products of some partial sums of independent identically distributed random variables.     

Mixing normal approximations of vectors of sums and maximum sums

Summary The conditioned central limit theorem for the vector of maximum partial sums based on independent identically distributed random vectors is investigated and the rate of convergence is discussed. The conditioning is that of Rényi (1958,Acta Math. Acad. Sci. Hungar.,9, 215–228). Analogous results for the vector of partial sums are obtained. University of Petroleum and Minerals

Summary.   We prove a functional central limit theorem for stationary random sequences given by the transformations

On the normal approximation for random fields via martingale methods

We prove a central limit theorem for strictly stationary random fields under a sharp projective condition. The assumption was introduced in the setting of random sequences by Maxwell and Woodroofe. Our approach is based on new results for triangular arrays of martingale differences, which have interest in themselves. We provide as applications new results for linear random fields and nonlinear random fields of Volterra-type.     

Almost Sure Central Limit Theorem for Partial Sums of Markov Chain

The authors prove an almost sure central limit theorem for partial sums based on an irreducible and positive recurrent Markov chain using logarithmic means,which realizes the extension of the almost sure central limit theorem for partial sums from an i.i.d.sequence of random variables to a Markov chain.     

A strong approximation theorem for positively dependent Gaussian sequences and its applications

Under the polynomial decay rates and finite second moment, a strong approximation theorem for partial sums of linear positive quadrant dependent Gaussian sequences is derived. As applications, the law of the iterated logarithm, the Chung-type law of the iterated logarithm and the almost sure central limit theorem are obtained with minimal conditions.     

Law of the iterated logarithm for the periodogram

We consider the almost sure asymptotic behavior of the periodogram of stationary and ergodic sequences. Under mild conditions we establish that the limsup of the periodogram properly normalized identifies almost surely the spectral density function associated with the stationary process. Results for a specified frequency are also given. Our results also lead to the law of the iterated logarithm for the real and imaginary parts of the discrete Fourier transform. The proofs rely on martingale approximations combined with results from harmonic analysis and techniques from ergodic theory. Several applications to linear processes and their functionals, iterated random functions, mixing structures and Markov chains are also presented.     

Rates of convergence in the central limit theorem for linear statistics of martingale differences

In this paper, we give rates of convergence for minimal distances between linear statistics of martingale differences and the limiting Gaussian distribution. In particular the results apply to the partial sums of (possibly long range dependent) linear processes, and to the least squares estimator in some parametric regression models.     

The central limit theorem for Markov chains with normal transition operators, started at a point

The central limit theorem and the invariance principle, proved by Kipnis and Varadhan for reversible stationary ergodic Markov chains with respect to the stationary law, are established with respect to the law of the chain started at a fixed point, almost surely, under a slight reinforcing of their spectral assumption. The result is valid also for stationary ergodic chains whose transition operator is normal. Received: 28 March 2000 / Revised version: 25 July 2000 /?Published online: 15 February 2001
