For a family F (a collection of subsets of Z_+), the notion of F-independence is defined both for topological dynamics (t.d.s.) and measurable dynamics (m.d.s.). It is shown that there is no non-trivial {syndetic}-independent m.d.s.; a…
For a given pair of positive integers $d$ and $N$ with $N \geq 2$, for strictly stationary random fields that are indexed by the $d$-dimensional integer lattice and satisfy $N$-tuplewise independence, the dependence coefficients associated…
Both complete decoupling and tangent decoupling are classical tools aiming to compare two random processes where one has a weaker dependence structure. We give a new proof for the complete decoupling inequality, which provides a lower bound…
We obtain central limit theorems for stationary random fields employing a novel measure of dependence called $\theta$-lex weak dependence. We show that this dependence notion is more general than strong mixing, i.e., it applies to a broader…
We study the situations when the solution to a weighted stochastic recursion has a power law tail. To this end, we develop two complementary approaches, the first one extends Goldie's (1991) implicit renewal theorem to cover recursions on…
We offer an umbrella type result which extends weak convergence of the classical empirical process on the line to that of more general processes indexed by functions of bounded variation. This extension is not contingent on the type of…
Under mild structural assumptions and regularity conditions on the marginal and conditional densities, an explicit bound on the $\beta$-mixing coefficients in terms of the physical dependence measure is provided. Consequently, weak physical…
The usual setting for learning the structure and parameters of a graphical model assumes the availability of independent samples produced from the corresponding multivariate probability distribution. However, for many models the mixing time…
This paper analyses a system subject to multiple dependent degradation processes. Degradation processes start at random times following a non homogeneous Poisson process and next dependently propagate. The growth of these degradation…
Let $(X,T,\mu,d)$ be a metric measure-preserving system for which $3$-fold correlations decay exponentially for Lipschitz continuous observables. Suppose that $(M_k)$ is a sequence satisfying some weak decay conditions and suppose there…
Many random combinatorial objects have a component structure whose joint distribution is equal to that of a process of mutually independent random variables, conditioned on the value of a weighted sum of the variables. It is interesting to…
When the limiting compensator of a sequence of martingales is continuous, we obtain a weak convergence theorem for the martingales; the limiting process can be written as a Brownian motion evaluated at the compensator and we find sufficient…
For large fully connected neuron networks, we study the dynamics of homogenous assemblies of interacting neurons described by time elapsed models. Under general assumptions on the firing rate which include the ones made in previous works…
The weak equivalence principle is studied in a space with noncommutativity of coordinates and noncommutativity of momenta. We find conditions on the parameters of noncommutativity which give the possibility to recover the equivalence…
A characterization of relative weak mixing in W*-dynamical systems in terms of a relatively independent joining is proven.
We obtain a strong renewal theorem with infinite mean beyond regular variation, when the underlying distribution belongs to the domain of geometric partial attraction a semistable law with index $\alpha\in (1/2,1]$. In the process we obtain…
The asymptotic validity of a resampling method for two sequential processes constructed from non-degenerate $U$-statistics is established under mixing conditions. The resampling schemes, referred to as {\em dependent multiplier bootstraps},…
Let $X=(X_1,\ldots,X_n)$ be a vector of i.i.d. random variables where $X_i$'s take values over $\mathbb{N}$. The purpose of this paper is to study the number of weakly increasing subsequences of $X$ of a given length $k$, and the number of…
In this paper we propose an alternative to the coupling of Berkes, Liu and Wu [1] to obtain strong approximations for partial sums of dependent sequences. The main tool is a new Rosen-thal type inequality expressed in terms of the coupling…
For a bivariate time series $((X_i,Y_i))_{i=1,...,n}$ we want to detect whether the correlation between $X_i$ and $Y_i$ stays constant for all $i = 1,...,n$. We propose a nonparametric change-point test statistic based on Kendall's tau and…
