A General Darling–Erdős Theorem in Euclidean Space

We provide an improved version of the Darling–Erd?s theorem for sums of i.i.d. random variables with mean zero and finite variance. We extend this result to multidimensional random vectors. Our proof is based on a new strong invariance principle in this setting which has other applications as well such as an integral test refinement of the multidimensional Hartman–Wintner LIL. We also identify a borderline situation where one has weak convergence to a shifted version of the standard limiting distribution in the classical Darling–Erd?s theorem.     

Weak Convergence Results for Multiple Generations of a Branching Process

We establish limit theorems involving weak convergence of multiple generations of critical and supercritical branching processes. These results arise naturally when dealing with the joint asymptotic behavior of functionals defined in terms of several generations of such processes. Applications of our main result include a functional central limit theorem (CLT), a Darling–Erdös result, and an extremal process result. The limiting process for our functional CLT is an infinite dimensional Brownian motion with sample paths in the infinite product space (C ₀[0,1])^∞, with the product topology, or in Banach subspaces of (C ₀[0,1])^∞ determined by norms related to the distribution of the population size of the branching process. As an application of this CLT we obtain a central limit theorem for ratios of weighted sums of generations of a branching processes, and also to various maximums of these generations. The Darling–Erdös result and the application to extremal distributions also include infinite-dimensional limit laws. Some branching process examples where the CLT fails are also included.     

Bahadur efficiency and local optimality of a test for exponentiality based on the Moran statistics

We study the scale-free test for exponentiality introduced by Moran. This test has been constructed as an optimal test of exponentiality against the gamma alternatives but it also may be used to test exponentiality against the IFR and DFR classes of alternatives. We obtain rough large deviation asymptotics of the test under the null hypothesis and find its Bahadur efficiency values for most commonly used alternatives to exponentiality. We also describe the local Bahadur optimality domain of the test. The large deviations theorem describes as well the asymptotic behavior of a spacings-based Darling test for uniformity under the null hypothesis.

Moderate deviations for Markovian occupation times

In this paper, we establish the moderate deviations for occupation times of Markov processes under the conditions given in Darling–Kac (1957. Trans. Amer. Math. Soc. 84, 444–458). When applied to the law of the iterated logarithm, our results generalize those obtained in Marcus–Rosen (1994a. Ann. Probab. 22, 626–658; 1994b. Ann. Inst. Henri Poincaré Probab. Statist. 30, 467–499) for Levy processes and random walks, and those obtained recently by the author (1999. Ann. Probab. 27, 1324–1346) for Harris recurrent Markov chains.     

Generalized KKM type theorems in FC-spaces with applications (II)

This paper is a continuum of the preceding paper of author. By applying a coincidence theorem in noncompact FC-space without any convexity structure due to author, a new KKM type theorem is first proved under noncompact setting of FC-spaces. The equivalent relation between the coincidence theorem and the KKM type theorem is also established. As applications of the KKM type theorem, we establish some new existence theorems of solutions for three classes of generalized vector equilibrium problems under noncompact setting of FC-spaces. These theorems improve and generalize many known results in literature.     

L0-线性函数的Hahn-Banach扩张定理的几何形式与随机赋范模中的Goldstine-Weston定理

本文给出了关于L⁰- 线性函数的Hahn-Banach 扩张定理的几何形式并证明这个几何形式等价于它的代数形式. 进一步, 我们利用这个几何形式给出了随机局部凸模中熟知的基本分离定理的一个新的且简单的证明. 最后, 利用这个分离定理, 我们同时在两种拓扑 —(ε, λ)- 拓扑和局部L⁰- 凸拓扑下证明了随机赋范模中的Goldstine-Weston 稠密性定理, 并举出一个反例说明在局部L⁰- 凸拓扑下如果随机赋范模不具有可数连接性质, 则Goldstine-Weston 稠密性定理不一定成立.     

Existence of invariant curves for area-preserving mappings under weaker non-degeneracy conditions

We consider a class of analytic area-preserving mappings C^m-smoothly depending on a parameter. Without imposing on any non-degeneracy assumption, we prove a formal KAM theorem for the mappings, which implies many previous KAM-type results under some non-degeneracy conditions. Moreover, by this formal KAM theorem, we can also obtain some new interesting results under some weaker non-degeneracy conditions. Thus, the formal KAM theorem can be regarded as a general KAM theorem for areapreserving mappings.

A Note on Nonconvex Minimax Theorem with Separable Homogeneous Polynomials

The minimax theorem for a convex-concave bifunction is a fundamental theorem in optimization and convex analysis, and has a lot of applications in economics. In the last two decades, a nonconvex extension of this minimax theorem has been well studied under various generalized convexity assumptions. In this note, by exploiting the hidden convexity (joint range convexity) of separable homogeneous polynomials, we establish a nonconvex minimax theorem involving separable homogeneous polynomials. Our result complements the existing study of nonconvex minimax theorem by obtaining easily verifiable conditions for the nonconvex minimax theorem to hold.

Fundamental Theorems for Clifford Algebra-Valued Distributions in Elliptic Clifford Analysis

A fundamental theorem in Elliptic Clifford Analysis (ECA), with the standard vector Dirac operator, is presented that is valid for Clifford algebra-valued distributions. This theorem holds under fairly general conditions on the allowed singularities of the right-hand side distributions and on the region of integration. Next a specialization of this fundamental theorem is proved that forms the starting point for solving boundary value problems with distributional sources in ECA. Finally, distributional equivalents of the Residue theorem, Cauchy’s theorem and Cauchy’s integral theorem are stated.
