A weak law for normed weighted sums of random elements in rademacher type p banach spaces

For weighted sums Σ_{j = 1}ⁿa_jV_j of independent random elements {V_n, n ≥ 1} in real separable, Rademacher type p (1 ≤ p ≤ 2) Banach spaces, a general weak law of large numbers of the form (Σ_{j = 1}ⁿa_jV_j − v_n)/b_n →^p 0 is established, where {v_n, n ≥ 1} and b_n → ∞ are suitable sequences. It is assumed that {V_n, n ≥ 1} is stochastically dominated by a random element V, and the hypotheses involve both the behavior of the tail of the distribution of |V| and the growth behaviors of the constants {a_n, n ≥ 1} and {b_n, n ≥ 1}. No assumption is made concerning the existence of expected values or absolute moments of the {V_n, n >- 1}.     

Choosing a random spanning subtree: a case study

Broder⁽⁴⁾ has suggested a stochastic algorithm for generating a random spanning subtree of a graph. This paper studies this algorithm for a special class of graphs. A complete spectral decomposition of the associated Markov chain is given. The analysis available from this is compared to stopping-time techniques and purely geometric bounds on the second eigenvalue.     

Asymptotic distribution of maximal autoregressive process with weight tending to 1

The maximal operator plays the similar role as the summation operator in the sense of stability of operation. So, we could discussARMA processes in the maximal operation by the same way as in the summation operation. However, many papers already treated with moving order statistics. In this paper, we discuss asymptotic behaviors of maximal autoregressive (MAR) processes with the weight tending to 1.

Poisson convergence in the restricted k‐partitioning problem

The randomized k‐number partitioning problem is the task to distribute N i.i.d. random variables into k groups in such a way that the sums of the variables in each group are as similar as possible. The restricted k‐partitioning problem refers to the case where the number of elements in each group is fixed to N/k. In the case k = 2 it has been shown that the properly rescaled differences of the two sums in the close to optimal partitions converge to a Poisson point process, as if they were independent random variables. We generalize this result to the case k > 2 in the restricted problem and show that the vector of differences between the k sums converges to a k ‐ 1‐dimensional Poisson point process. © 2006 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

A two-sided estimate in the Hsu-Robbins-Erdös law of large numbers

Let X₁, X₂, … be independent identically distributed random variables. Then, Hsu and Robbins (1947) together with Erdös (1949, 1950) have proved that

,

if and only if E[X²₁] < ∞ and E[X₁] = 0. We prove that there are absolute constants C₁, C₂ (0, ∞) such that if X₁, X₂, … are independent identically distributed mean zero random variables, then

c₁λ⁻² E[X₁²·1_{|X1|λ}]S(λ)C₂λ⁻² E[X₁²·1_{|X1|λ}]

for every λ > 0.     

The multifractal spectrum of statistically self-similar measures

We calculate the multifractal spectrum of a random measure constructed using a statistically self-similar process. We show that with probability one there is a multifractal decomposition analogous to that in the deterministic self-similar case, with the exponents given by the solution of an expectation equation.     

Estimation of the Common Mean of a Bivariate Normal Population

In this paper we discuss the problem of estimating the common mean of a bivariate normal population based on paired data as well as data on one of the marginals. Two double sampling schemes with the second stage sampling being either a simple random sampling (SRS) or a ranked set sampling (RSS) are considered. Two common mean estimators are proposed. It is found that under normality, the proposed RSS common mean estimator is always superior to the proposed SRS common mean estimator and other existing estimators such as the RSS regression estimator proposed by Yu and Lam (1997, Biometrics, 53, 1070–1080). The problem of estimating the mean Reid Vapor Pressure (RVP) of regular gasoline based on field and laboratory data is considered.
