On Strassen's version of the law of the iterated logarithm for the two-parameter Gaussian process

Strassen's version of the law of the iterated logarithm is extended to the two-parameter Gaussian process {X(s, t); ε(s, t) [0, ∞)²} with the covariance function R((s₁,t₁),(s₂,t₂)) = min(s₁,s₂)min(t₁,t₂).     

Laws of the iterated logarithm for iterated Wiener processes

The recent interest in iterated Wiener processes was motivated by apparently quite unrelated studies in probability theory and mathematical statistics. Laws of the iterated logarithm (LIL) were independently obtained by Burdzy⁽²⁾ and Révész⁽¹⁷⁾. In this work, we present a functional version of LIL for a standard iterated Wiener process, in the spirit of functional asymptotic results of an ²-valued Gaussian process given by Deheuvels and Mason⁽⁹⁾ in view of Bahadur-Kiefer-type theorems. Chung's liminf sup LIL is established as well, thus providing further insight into the asymptotic behavior of iterated Wiener processes.     

On the Makarov law of the iterated logarithm

We obtain considerable improvement of Makarov's estimate of the boundary behavior of a general conformal mapping from the unit disk to a simply connected domain in the complex plane. We apply the result to improve Makarov's comparison of harmonic measure with Hausdorff measure on simply connected domains.

A note on the functional law of iterated logarithm for maxima of Gaussian sequences

Let {X_n, n ≥ 1} be a real-valued stationary Gaussian sequence with mean zero and variance one. Let M_n = max{X_t, i ≤ n} and H_n(t) = (M_[nt] ? b_n)a_n^?1 be the maximum resp. the properly normalised maximum process, where $\text{c}{}_{\mathrm{n}}\text{= (2}\text{log}\text{n)}{}^{\mathrm{<mtext>1</mtext><mtext>2</mtext>}}$, $\text{a}{}_{\mathrm{n}}\text{=}\text{(}\text{log log}\text{n)}\text{c}{}_{\mathrm{n}}$ and $\text{b}{}_{\mathrm{n}}\text{= c}{}_{\mathrm{n}}\text{?}\text{1}\text{2}\text{(}\text{log}\text{(4π}\text{log}\text{n))}\text{c}{}_{\mathrm{n}}$. We characterize the almost sure limit functions of (H_n)_n≥3 in the set of non-negative, non-decreasing, right-continuous, real-valued functions on (0, ∞), if r(n) (log n)^3?Δ = O(1) for all Δ > 0 or if r(n) (log n)^2?Δ = O(1) for all Δ > 0 and r(n) convex and fulfills another regularity condition, where r(n) is the correlation function of the Gaussian sequence.     

A functional law of the iterated logarithm for associated sequences

Recently, a functional central limit theorem and a Berry-Essen Theorem have been demonstrated for classes or associated random variables. Using these results, and similar results for multiplicative sequences, we show a functional law of the iterated logarithm for associated sequences satisfying a rate requirement.     

Laws of the iterated logarithm for high-dimensional wiener sausage

Let {β(s), s ≥ 0} be the standard Brownian motion in ℝ ^d with d ≥ 4 and let |W _r (t)| be the volume of the Wiener sausage associated with {β(s), s ≥ 0} observed until time t. From the central limit theorem of Wiener sausage, we know that when d ≥ 4 the limit distribution is normal. In this paper, we study the laws of the iterated logarithm for | W_r (t) | - \mathbbE| W_r (t) |\left| {W_r (t)} \right| - \mathbb{E}\left| {W_r (t)} \right| in this case.

The low of the iterated logarithm for empirical processes under absolute regularity

The compact law of the iterated logarithm for empirical processes whose underlying sequence satisfies a -mixing condition is considered. In particular, we show a compact law of the iterated logarithm for VC subgraph classes of functions, for classes of functions which satisfy the bracketing condition in Doukhanet al. ⁽⁶⁾ and for some classes of smooth functions.Research partially supported by NSF Grant DMS-93-02583.     

Laws of the iterated logarithm for partial sum processes indexed by functions

We establish a bounded and a compact law of the iterated logarithm for partial sum processes indexed by classes of functions. We assume a growth condition on the metric entropy under bracketing. Examples show that our results are sharp. As a corollary we obtain new results for weighted sums of independent identically distributed random variables.

Small ball probabilities for Gaussian processes with stationary increments under Hölder norms

Small ball probabilities are estimated for Gaussian processes with stationary increments when the small balls are given by various Hölder norms. As an application we establish results related to Chung's functional law of the iterated logarithm for fractional Brownian motion under Hölder norms. In particular, we identify the points approached slowest in the functional law of the iterated logarithm.Supported in part by NSF Grant DMS-9024961.     

Laws of the iterated logarithm for locally square integrable martingales

Three types of laws of the iterated logarithm （LIL） for locally square integrable martingales with continuous parameter are considered by a discretization approach. By this approach, a lower bound of LIL and a number of FLIL are obtained, and Chung LIL is extended.     

Some asymptotic results related to the law of iterated logarithm for Brownian motion

For 0<<1, let . The questions addressed in this paper are motivated by a result due to Strassen: almost surely, lim sup _t U ((t))=1–exp{–4(^–1)–1}. We show that Strassen's result is closely related to a large deviations principle for the family of random variablesU (t), t>0. Also, when =1,U (t)0 almost surely and we obtain some bounds on the rate of convergence. Finally, we prove an analogous limit theorem for discounted averages of the form as 0, whereD is a suitable discount function. These results also hold for symmetric random walks.
