Strong uniform consistency of nonparametric regression function estimates

Let (X, Y) be a ^dx-valued random vector and let r(t)=E(Y/X=t) be the regression function of Y on X that has to be estimated from a sample (X _i, Y_i), i=1,..., n. We establish conditions ensuring that an estimate of the form

Strong Convergence for Weighted Sums of Negatively Associated Arrays

Let {Xni} be an array of rowwise negatively associated random variables and Tnk=k∑i=1 i^a Xni for a ≥ -1, Snk =∑｜i｜≤k Ф（i/nη）1/nη Xni for η∈（0,1],where Ф is some function. The author studies necessary and sufficient conditions of ∞∑n=1 AnP（max 1≤k≤n｜Tnk｜〉εBn）〈∞ and ∞∑n=1 CnP（max 0≤k≤mn｜Snk｜〉εDn）〈∞ for all ε 〉 0, where An, Bn, Cn and Dn are some positive constants, mn ∈ N with mn /nη →∞. The results of Lanzinger and Stadtmfiller in 2003 are extended from the i.i.d, case to the case of the negatively associated, not necessarily identically distributed random variables. Also, the result of Pruss in 2003 on independent variables reduces to a special case of the present paper; furthermore, the necessity part of his result is complemented.

Sharp Estimates for Deviations of Linear Approximation Methods for Periodic Functions by Linear Combinations of Moduli of Continuity of Different Order

Estimates for deviations are established for a large class of linear methods of approximation of periodic functions by linear combinations of moduli of continuity of different orders. These estimates are sharp in the sense of constants in the uniform and integral metrics. In particular, the following assertion concerning approximation by splines is proved: Suppose that is odd, . Then

A Note on Drazin Invertibility for Upper Triangular Block Operators

A bounded linear operator A acting on a Banach space X is said to be an upper triangular block operators of order n, and we write ${A \in \mathcal{UT}_{n}(X)}$ , if there exists a decomposition of ${X = X_{1} \oplus . . . \oplus X_{n}}$ and an n × n matrix operator ${(A_{i,j})_{\rm 1 \leq i, j \leq n}}$ such that ${A = (A_{i, j})_{1 \leq i, j \leq n}, A_{i, j} = 0}$ for i > j. In this note we characterize a large set of entries A _{i, j} with j > i such that ${\sigma_{\rm D} (A) = {\bigcup\limits_{i = 1}^{n}} \sigma_{\rm D} (A_{i, i})}$ ; where σ_D(.) is the Drazin spectrum. Some applications concerning the Fredholm theory and meromorphic operators are given.

This also leads to a limit theorem for the appropriately normalized sums under the law transformed by the density exp .

Summary LetX=(X _n; n≧0,X ₀=1) be a supercritical Galton-Watson process. The limiting distribution of ) where is the m.l.e. of the offspring mean, is derived. As an application of this result, some limit theorems leading ultimately to a parameter free result of statistical interest, are also established.
