We investigate an application of slowly varying functions (in sense of Karamata) in the theory of Markov branching process. We treat the critical case so that the infinitesimal generating function of the process has the infinite second…
Let $p \in (0, \infty)$ be a constant and let $\{\xi_n\} \subset L^p(\Omega, {\mathcal F}, \P)$ be a sequence of random variables. For any integers $m, n \ge 0$, denote $S_{m, n} = \sum_{k=m}^{m + n} \xi_k$. It is proved that, if there…
A nonstandard proof of a generalization of Karamata uniform convergence theorem for slowly varying functions is presented. Properties of a related operator $\mathcal{L}$ and its connection with slowly varying functions are discussed.
In this paper, we investigate the precise local large deviation probabilities for random sums of independent real-valued random variables with a common distribution $F$, where $F(x+\Delta)=F((x, x+T])$ is an $\mathcal{O}$-regularly varying…
Considering slowly varying functions (SVF), Seneta in 2019 conjectured the following implication, for $\alpha\geq1$, $$ \int_0^x y^{\alpha-1}(1-F(y))dy\textrm{ is SVF}\ \Longrightarrow\ \int_{[0,x]}y^{\alpha}dF(y)\textrm{ is SVF, as }…
Our main aim is to apply the theory of regularly varying functions to the asymptotical analysis at infinity of solutions of Friedmann cosmological equations. A new constant $\Gamma$ is introduced related to the Friedmann cosmological…
An overview of results and problems concerning the asymptotic behaviour for summatory functions of a certain class of additive functions is given. The class of functions in question involves Karamata's regular variation. Some new Abelian…
The problem of inferring the distribution of a random vector given that its norm is large requires modeling a homogeneous limiting density. We suggest an approach based on graphical models which is suitable for high-dimensional vectors. We…
We introduce a strategy to tackle some known obstructions of current approaches to the Fourier uniformity conjecture. Assuming GRH, we then show the conjecture holds for intervals of length at least $(\log X)^{\psi(X)}$, with $\psi(X)…
We say that a function $\alpha(x)$ belongs to the set ${\bf A}^{(\gamma)}$ if it has an asymptotic expansion of the form $\alpha(x)\sim \sum^\infty_{i=0}\alpha_ix^{\gamma-i}$ as $x\to\infty$, which can be differentiated term by term…
This paper investigates some aspects of the variational behaviour of nonsmooth functions, with special emphasis on certain stability phenomena. Relationships linking such properties as sharp minimality, superstability, error bound and…
Based on discrete observations, we develop a test to infer if the volatility function $\sigma(\cdot)$ within the nonparametric Gaussian white noise model $dY_t = \sigma(t)dW_t$ is constant. The testing procedure is shown to be…
In this paper we propose the idea of expanding the space of variations in standard variational calculations for the energy by considering the wave function $\psi$ to be a functional of a set of functions $\chi: \psi = \psi[\chi]$, rather…
We define an integral, the distributional integral of functions of one real variable, that is more general than the Lebesgue and the Denjoy-Perron-Henstock-Kurzweil integrals, and which allows the integration of functions with…
This paper addresses the asymptotics of functionals with linear growth depending on the Riesz $s$-fractional gradient on piecewise constant functions. We consider a general class of varying energy densities and, as $s\to 1$, we characterize…
V. Fock [7] introduced an interesting function $\psi(x)$, $x \in {\mathbb R}$ related to Markov numbers. We explain its relation to Federer-Gromov's stable norm and Mather's $\beta$-function, and use this to study its properties. We prove…
We consider the asymptotic expansion for $x\to\pm\infty$ of the entire function \[F_{n,\sigma}(x;\mu)=\sum_{k=0}^\infty \frac{\sin\,(n\gamma_k)}{\sin \gamma_k}\,\frac{x^k}{k! \Gamma(\mu-\sigma k)},\quad \gamma_k=\frac{(k+1)\pi}{2n}\] for…
A spectral representation for regularly varying L\'evy processes with index between one and two is established and the properties of the resulting random noise are discussed in detail giving also new insight in the $L^2$-case where the…
We investigate the continuous function $f$ defined by $$x\mapsto \sum_{\sigma\le_L x }2^{-K(\sigma)}$$ as a variant of Chaitin's Omega from the perspective of analysis, computability, and algorithmic randomness. Among other results, we…
We obtain a variety of series and integral representations of the digamma function $\psi(a)$. These in turn provide representations of the evaluations $\psi(p/q)$ at rational argument and for the polygamma function $\psi^{(j)}$. The…
