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,…

This paper introduces a general continuous form of poverty index that encompasses most of the existing formulas in the literature. We then propose a consistent estimator for this index in case the poverty line is a functional of the…

The law of a finite graph is a probability measure induced by the orbits of the graph under its automorphism group. Every law satisfies the intrinsic mass transport principle, which is also known as unimodularity. We discuss the convergence…

In this paper we discuss the boundedness of the Fatou components for the sine family and the extended sine family, mainly when the parameter \lambda has modulus greater than 1 and the map is post-critically bounded.

Cousin's lemma is a compactness principle that naturally arises when studying the gauge integral, a generalisation of the Lebesgue integral. We study the axiomatic strength of Cousin's lemma for various classes of functions, using Friedman…

The possibilities for limit functions on a Fatou component for the iteration of a single polynomial or rational function are well understood and quite restricted. In non-autonomous iteration, where one considers compositions of arbitrary…

In this paper we define the closure under weak convergence of the class of p-tempered {\alpha}-stable distributions. We give necessary and sufficient conditions for convergence of sequences in this class. Moreover, we show that any element…

A common statistical task lies in showing asymptotic normality of certain statistics. In many of these situations, classical textbook results on weak convergence theory suffice for the problem at hand. However, there are quite some…

This expository note aims at illustrating weak convergence of probability measures from a broader view than a previously published paper. Though the results are standard for functional analysts, this approach is rarely known by…

Weak supersolutions to the porous medium equation are defined by means of smooth test functions under an integral sign. We show that nonnegative weak supersolutions become lower semicontinuous after redefinition on a set of measure zero.…

We prove general results about separation and weak$^\#$-convergence of boundedly finite measures on separable metric spaces and Souslin spaces. More precisely, we consider an algebra of bounded real-valued, or more generally a $*$-algebra…

We prove a Fatou-type theorem and its converse for certain positive eigenfunctions of the Laplace-Beltrami operator $\mathcal{L}$ on a Harmonic $NA$ group. We show that a positive eigenfunction $u$ of $\mathcal{L}$ with eigenvalue…

Limit can be defined by two axioms: 1. Strict inequality between limits implies, ultimately, strict inequality between functions. 2. For constant functions limit is trivial. How can basic results on convergence be derived from these axioms?…

Weak values are usually associated with weak measurements of an observable on a pre- and post-selected ensemble. We show that more generally, weak values are proportional to the correlation between two pointers in a successive measurement.…

This paper explores the well known approximation approach to decide weak bisimilarity of Basic Parallel Processes. We look into how different refinement functions can be used to prove weak bisimilarity decidable for certain subclasses. We…

The notion of weak measurement provides a formalism for extracting information from a quantum system in the limit of vanishing disturbance to its state. Here we extend this formalism to the measurement of sequences of observables. When…

We show that the weak limit of a quasiminimizing sequence is a quasiminimal set. This generalizes the notion of weak limit of a minimizing sequences introduced by De Lellis, De Philippis, De Rosa, Ghiraldin and Maggi. This result is also…
