Let $C\geq 2$ be a positive integer. Consider the set of $n\times n$ non-negative integer matrices whose row sums and column sums are all equal to $Cn$ and let $X=(X_{ij})_{1\leq i,j\leq n}$ be uniformly distributed on this set. This $X$ is…

By a classical theorem of Koksma the sequence of fractional parts $(\{x^n\})_{n \geq 1}$ is uniformly distributed for almost all values of $x$. In the present paper we obtain an exact quantitative version of Koksma's theorem, by calculating…

For a zero-mean, unit-variance second-order stationary univariate Gaussian process we derive the probability that a record at the time $n$, say $X_n$, takes place and derive its distribution function. We study the joint distribution of the…

Assume that $f$ is the characteristic function of a probability measure $\mu_f$ on $R^n$. Let $\sigma>0$. We study the following extrapolation problem: under what conditions on the neighborhood of infinity $V_{\sigma}=\{x\in R^n:…

Let q^n be a continuous density function in n-dimensional Euclidean space. We think of q^n as the density function of some random sequence X^n with values in \BbbR^n. For I\subset[1,n], let X_I denote the collection of coordinates X_i, i\in…

We study the invariant measure or the stationary density of a coupled discrete dynamical system as a function of the coupling parameter \epsilon (0 < \epsilon < 1/4). The dynamical system considered is chaotic and unsynchronized for this…

We give asymptotics for the cumulative distribution function (CDF) for degrees of large dense random graphs sampled from a graphon. The proof is based on precise asymptotics for binomial random variables. Replacing the indicator function in…

We show that any distribution function on $\mathbb{R}^d$ with nonnegative, nonzero and integrable marginal distributions can be characterized by a norm on $\mathbb{R}^{d+1}$, called $F$-norm. We characterize the set of $F$-norms and prove…

Let $X_1,\ldots,X_M$ and $Y_1,\ldots,Y_N$ be independent zero mean normal random variables with variances $\sigma_{X_i}^2$, $i=1,\ldots,M$, and $\sigma_{Y_j}^2$, $j=1,\ldots,N$, respectively, and let $X=X_1\cdots X_M$ and $Y=Y_1\cdots Y_N$.…

We consider a stationary linear AR($p$) model with unknown mean. The autoregression parameters as well as the distribution function (d.f.) $G$ of innovations are unknown. The observations contain gross errors (outliers). The distribution of…

We say that a random vector $X=(X_1,...,X_n)$ in $R^n$ is an $n$-dimensional version of a random variable $Y$ if for any $a\in R^n$ the random variables $\sum a_iX_i$ and $\gamma(a) Y$ are identically distributed, where $\gamma:R^n\to…

The cumulative distribution and quantile functions for the one-sided one sample Kolmogorov-Smirnov probability distributions are used for goodness-of-fit testing. While the Smirnov-Birnbaum-Tingey formula for the CDF appears straight…

Applications of stochastic models often involve the evaluation of steady-state performance, which requires solving a set of balance equations. In most cases of interest, the number of equations is infinite or even uncountable. As a result,…

This paper studies estimation of and inference on a distribution function $F$ that is concave on the nonnegative half line and admits a density function $f$ with potentially unbounded support. When $F$ is strictly concave, we show that the…
