This paper is concerned with relationships of weakly mixing, topologically weakly mixing, and sensitivity for non-autonomous discrete systems. It is shown that weakly mixing implies topologically weakly mixing and sensitivity for measurable…

Weak convergence of various general functionals of partial sums of dependent random variables to stochastic integral now play a major role in the modern statistics theory. In this paper, we obtain the weak convergence of various general…

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 $f$,…

Rational weak mixing is a measure theoretic version of Krickeberg's strong ratio mixing property for infinite measure preserving transformations. It requires "{\tt density}" ratio convergence for every pair of measurable sets in a dense…

We consider a field $f \circ T_1^{i_1} \circ \cdots \circ T_d^{i_d}$ where $T_1, \dots , T_d$ arecommuting transformations, one of them at least being ergodic. Considering the case of commuting filtrations, we are interested by giving…

We consider Markov chains on general state spaces in stationary random environment which are defined by a random mapping that is contractive up to a bounded perturbation. We prove their convergence to a limiting law, providing convergence…

We establish general results for weak relative compactness of sequences of It\^o integrals with respect to Skorohod's functional M1 topology, under general conditions. Moreover, we are able to explicitly characterise the form of the limit…

This paper deals with the question of conditional sampling and prediction for the class of stationary max-stable processes which allow for a mixed moving maxima representation. We develop an exact procedure for conditional sampling using…

We use the martingale convergence method to get the weak convergence theorem on general functionals of partial sums of independent heavy-tailed random variables. The limiting process is the stochastic integral driven by $\alpha-$stable…

Let $(\phi_t)$ be an area-preserving smooth flow on a compact, connected, orientable surface $\mathcal M$ with at least one but finitely many fixed points. Assume that $(\phi_t)$ is analytic (up to a canonical change of coordinates) in the…

Weak convergence of joint distributions generally does not imply convergence of conditional distributions. In particular, conditional distributions need not converge when joint Gaussian distributions converge to a singular Gaussian limit.…
