Abstract: | The subject of the paper is the probability-theoretic properties of elementary symmetric polynomials σ k of arbitrary degree k in random variables X i (i=1,2,…,m) defined on special subsets of commutative rings ℛ m with identity of finite characteristic m. It is shown that the probability distributions of the random elements σ k (X 1,…,X m ) tend to a limit when m→∞ if X 1,…,X m form a Markov chain of finite degree μ over a finite set of states V, V⊂ℛ m , with positive conditional probabilities. Moreover, if all the conditional probabilities exceed a prescribed positive number α, the limit distributions do not depend on the choice of the chain. |
