Combinatorics of random processes and sections of convex bodies

We find a sharp combinatorial bound for the metric entropy of sets in R n and general classes of functions. This solves two basic combinatorial conjectures on the empirical processes. 1. A class of…

THE UNIFORM CLT FOR MARTINGALE DIFFERENCE ARRAYS UNDER THE UNIFORMLY INTEGRABLE ENTROPY

In this paper we consider the uniform central limit theorem for a martingale-diere nce array of a function-indexed stochastic process under the uniformly integrable entropy condition. We prove a…

Non-Improved Uniform Tail Estimates for Normed Sums of Independent Random Variables with Heavy Tails, with applications

We obtain an uniform tail estimates for natural normed sums of independent random variables (r.v.) with regular varying tails of distributions. We give also many examples on order to show the…

Convergence in distribution of nonmeasurable random elements

A notion of convergence in distribution for non (necessarily) measurable random elements, due to Hoffmann-Jorgensen, is characterized in terms of weak convergence of finitely additive probability…

A functional limit theorem for η-weakly dependent processes and its applications

We prove a general functional central limit theorem for weak dependent time series. A very large variety of models, for instance, causal or non causal linear, ARCH(∞), LARCH(∞), Volterra processes,…

CLT for continuous random processes under approximations terms

We formulate and prove a new sufficient conditions for Central Limit Theorem(CLT) in the space of continuous functions in the terms typical for the approximation theory. We prove that the conditions…

Empirical Quantile Central Limit Theorems for Some Self-Similar Processes

In Swanson (Probab Theory Relat Fields 138:269–304, 2007), a central limit theorem (CLT) for the sample median of independent Brownian motions with value $$0$$0 at $$0$$0 was proved. Here, we extend…

Weighted Invariance Principle for Banach Space-Valued Random Variables

A weighted weak invariance principle for nonseparable Banach space-valued functions is described via asymptotic behavior of a weighted Wiener process. It is proved that, unlike the usual weak…

The central limit theorem for non-separable valued functions

The main purpose of this paper is to formulate and investigate the central limit theorem for functions which are not assumed to be separable-valued nor measurable. The inspiration is a part of a…

On Hoffmann-Jørgensen-type Inequalities for Outer Expectations with Applications

A Maximal Inequality and a Functional Central Limit Theorem for set-indexed empirical processes

For the tail probabilities of a general set-indexed empirical process in an arbitrary sample space a maximal inequality is derived. In the case that the class of sets by which the process is indexed…

Probability Inequalities for Empirical Processes and a Law of the Iterated Logarithm

Given a class -F of functions on X, we can view Vn as a stochastic process indexed by -F and consider limit theorems for this process. To prove such theorems it is often helpful to have bounds on the…
