We establish empirical quantile process CLTs based on $n$ independent copies of a stochastic process $\{X_t: t \in E\}$ that are uniform in $t \in E$ and quantile levels $\alpha \in I$, where $I$ is a closed sub-interval of $(0,1)$.…
In a paper of Jason Swanson, a CLT for the sample median of independent Brownian motions with value 0 at 0 was proved. Here we extend this result in two ways. We prove such a result for a collection of self-similar processes which include…
For a uniform process $\{ X_t: t\in E\}$ (by which $X_t $ is uniformly distributed on $(0,1)$ for $t\in E$) and a function $w(x)>0$ on $(0,1)$, we give a sufficient condition for the weak convergence of the empirical process based on $\{…
Let $X=\{X_{t},t\in R_{+}\}$ be a symmetric L\'{e}vy process with local time $\{L^{x}_{t} ; (x,t)\in R^{1}\times R^{1}_{+}\}$. When the L\'{e}vy exponent $\psi(\la)$ is regularly varying at zero with index $1<\beta\leq 2$, and satisfies…
Let $\{L^{x}_{t} ; (x,t)\in R^{1}\times R^{1}_{+}\}$ denote the local time of Brownian motion and \[ \alpha_{t}:=\int_{-\infty}^{\infty} (L^{x}_{t})^{2} dx . \] Let $\eta=N(0,1)$ be independent of $\alpha_{t}$. For each fixed $t$ \[…
We give a two-dimensional central limit theorem (CLT) for the second-order quadratic variation of the centered Gaussian processes on $[0,T]$. Though the approach we use is well known in the literature, the conditions under which the CLT…
Let $\{L^{x}_{t} ; (x,t)\in R^{1}\times R^{1}_{+}\}$ denote the local time of Brownian motion. Our main result is to show that for each fixed $t$ $${\int (L^{x+h}_t- L^x_t)^3 dx-12h\int (L^{x+h}_t - L^x_t)L^x_t dx-24h^{2}t\over h^2}…
Let $X=\{X(t), t\geq 0\}$ be a Brownian motion or a spectrally negative stable process of index $1<\a<2$. Let $E=\{E(t),t\geq 0\}$ be the hitting time of a stable subordinator of index $0<\beta<1$ independent of $X$. We use a connection…
Let $(U_n(t))_{t\in\R^d}$ be the empirical process associated to an $\R^d$-valued stationary process $(X_i)_{i\ge 0}$. We give general conditions, which only involve processes $(f(X_i))_{i\ge 0}$ for a restricted class of functions $f$,…
We introduce a class of iterated processes called $\alpha$-time Brownian motion for $0<\alpha \leq 2$. These are obtained by taking Brownian motion and replacing the time parameter with a symmetric $\alpha$-stable process. We prove a…
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 for continuous CLT obtained by N.C.Jain…
We establish a multivariate empirical process central limit theorem for stationary $\R^d$-valued stochastic processes $(X_i)_{i\geq 1}$ under very weak conditions concerning the dependence structure of the process. As an application we can…
Statistical inference for non-stationary data is hindered by the failure of classical central limit theorems (CLTs), not least because there is no fixed Gaussian limit to converge to. To resolve this, we introduce relative weak convergence,…
We consider the nearest-neighbor simple random walk on $\Z^d$, $d\ge2$, driven by a field of i.i.d. random nearest-neighbor conductances $\omega_{xy}\in[0,1]$. Apart from the requirement that the bonds with positive conductances percolate,…
Braverman, Mallows and Shepp (1995), showed that if the absolute moments of partial sums of i.i.d. symmetric variables are equal to those of normal variables, then the marginals have normal distribution. This fact suggested the conjecture…
We show that a modified Empirical process converges to the limiting Gaussian process whenever the limit is continuous. The modification depends on the properties of the limit via Talagrand's characterization of the continuity of Gaussian…
We prove Berry-Esseen type rates of convergence for central limit theorems (CLTs) of regenerative processes which generalize previous results of Bolthausen under weaker moment assumptions. We then show how this general result can be applied…
We present a new approach, inspired by Stein's method, to prove a central limit theorem (CLT) for linear statistics of $\beta$-ensembles in the one-cut regime. Compared with the previous proofs, our result requires less regularity on the…
We define a time dependent empirical process based on $n$ i.i.d.~fractional Brownian motions and establish Gaussian couplings and strong approximations to it by Gaussian processes. They lead to functional laws of the iterated logarithm for…
For $0<\alpha \leq 2$ and $0<H<1$, an $\alpha$-time fractional Brownian motion is an iterated process $Z = \{Z(t)=W(Y(t)), t \ge 0\}$ obtained by taking a fractional Brownian motion $\{W(t), t\in \RR{R} \}$ with Hurst index $0<H<1$ and…
