Let $X, X_1, X_2,...$ be a sequence of non-degenerate i.i.d. random variables with mean zero. The best possible weighted approximations are investigated in $D[0, 1]$ for the partial sum processes $\{S_{[nt]}, 0\le t\le 1\}$, where…

Let $X_i = {X_i(t), t \in T}$ be i.i.d. copies of a centered Gaussian process $X = {X(t), t \in T}$ with values in $\mathbb{R}^d$ defined on a separable metric space $T.$ It is supposed that $X$ is bounded. We consider the asymptotic…

Let $X_1,X_2,...$ be independent variables, each having a normal distribution with negative mean $-\beta<0$ and variance 1. We consider the partial sums $S_n=X_1+...+X_n$, with $S_0=0$, and refer to the process $\{S_n:n\geq0\}$ as the…

We consider certain Fibonacci-like sequences $(X_n)_{n\geq 0}$ perturbed with a random noise. Our main result is that $\frac{1}{X_n}\sum_{k=0}^{n-1}X_k$ converges in distribution, as $n$ goes to infinity, to a random variable $W$ with…

We study a particular type of subcritical Galton--Watson trees, which are called non-generic trees in the physics community. In contrast with the critical or supercritical case, it is known that condensation appears in certain large…

Consider a family of random ordinary differential equations on a manifold driven by vector fields of the form $\sum_kY_k\alpha_k(z_t^\epsilon(\omega))$ where $Y_k$ are vector fields, $\epsilon$ is a positive number, $z_t^\epsilon$ is a…
