We study an information analogue of infinitely divisible probability distributions, where the i.i.d. sum is replaced by the joint distribution of an i.i.d. sequence. A random variable $X$ is called informationally infinitely divisible if,…

We establish a Chung-type law of the iterated logarithm for the solutions of a class of stochastic heat equations driven by a multiplicative noise whose coefficient depends on the solution, and this dependence takes us away from Gaussian…

We apply recent ideas about complexity and randomness to the philosophy of laws and chances. We develop two ways to use algorithmic randomness to characterize probabilistic laws of nature. The first, a generative chance* law, employs a…

The law of large numbers for the empirical density for the pairs of uniformly distributed integers with a given greatest common divisor is a classic result in number theory. In this paper, we study the large deviations of the empirical…

We consider a totally monotone capacity on a Polish space and a sequence of bounded p.i.i.d. random variables. We show that, on a full set, any cluster point of empirical averages lies between the lower and the upper Choquet integrals of…

We utilize an ergodic theory framework to explore sublinear expectation theory. Specifically, we investigate the pointwise Birkhoff's ergodic theorem for invariant sublinear expectation systems. By further assuming that these sublinear…

The celebrated theorem of Komlos asserts that L1-boundedness is sufficient for a given sequence of functions to contain a subsequence along which (in a "lacunary" manner), and along whose every further subsequence ("hereditarily"), a strong…

We develop a new $L^1$ law of large numbers where the $i$-th summand is given by a function $h(\cdot)$ evaluated at $X_i - \theta_n$, and where $\theta_n \circeq \theta_n(X_1,X_2,\ldots,X_n)$ is an estimator converging in probability to…

In theoretical physics, we sometimes have two perturbative expansions of physical quantity around different two points in parameter space. In terms of the two perturbative expansions, we introduce a new type of smooth interpolating function…

We justify and discuss expressions for joint lower and upper expectations in imprecise probability trees, in terms of the sub- and supermartingales that can be associated with such trees. These imprecise probability trees can be seen as…

Li, Qi, and Rosalsky (Trans. Amer. Math. Soc., 2016) introduced a refinement of the Marcinkiewicz--Zygmund strong law of large numbers (SLLN), so-called the $(p,q)$-type SLLN, where $0<p<2$ and $q>0$. They obtained sets of necessary and…
