We consider an Ornstein-Uhleneck (OU) process associated to self-normalised sums in i.i.d. symmetric random variables from the domain of attraction of $N(0, 1)$ distribution. We proved the self-normalised sums converge to the OU process (in…

In the Random Subset Sum Problem, given $n$ i.i.d. random variables $X_1, ..., X_n$, we wish to approximate any point $z \in [-1,1]$ as the sum of a suitable subset $X_{i_1(z)}, ..., X_{i_s(z)}$ of them, up to error $\varepsilon$. Despite…

For the partial sums $(S_n)$ of independent random variables we define a stochastic process $s_n(t):=(1/d_n)\sum_{k \le [nt]} ({S_k}/{k}-\mu)$ and prove that $$(1/{\log N})\sum_{n\le N}(1/n)\mathbf {I}\left\{s_n(t)\le x\right\} \to…

Lognormal random variables appear naturally in many engineering disciplines, including wireless communications, reliability theory, and finance. So, too, does the sum of (correlated) lognormal random variables. Unfortunately, no closed form…

The famous results of Koml\'os, Major and Tusn\'ady (see [15] and [17]) state that it is possible to approximate almost surely the partial sums of size n of i.i.d. centered random variables in L p (p > 2) by a Wiener process with an error…

We study the problem of estimating the sum of $n$ elements, each with weight $w(i)$, in a structured universe. Our goal is to estimate $W = \sum_{i=1}^n w(i)$ within a $(1 \pm \epsilon)$ factor using a sublinear number of samples, assuming…
