The q-voter model is a spin-flip system in which the rate of flipping to type i is given by the qth power of the proportion of nearest neighbours in type i for $i=0,1$. If $q=1$ it reduces to the classical voter model. We show that in the…

The main purpose of this paper is to obtain strong laws of large numbers for arrays or weighted sums of random variables under a scenario of dependence. Namely, for triangular arrays $\{X_{n,k}, \, 1 \leqslant k \leqslant n, \, n \geqslant…

We study the almost sure convergence of randomly truncated stochastic algorithms. We present a new convergence theorem which extends the already known results by making vanish the classical condition on the noise terms. The aim of this work…

For finite interacting particle systems with strong repulsing-attracting or general interactions, we prove global weak well-posedness almost up to the critical threshold of the strengths of attracting interactions (independent of the number…

In this paper, the complete moment convergence for the partial sums of moving average processes $\{X_n=\sum_{i=-\infty}^{\infty}a_iY_{i+n},n\ge 1\}$ is proved under some proper conditions, where $\{Y_i,-\infty<i<\infty\}$ is a doubly…

Under reasonable algebraic assumptions and under an infinite second order moment assumption, we show that the logarithm of the norm (log-norm) of a product of random i.i.d. matrices with entries in $\mathbb{R}$ or in any other local field…

We revisit the Kahn-Kalai conjecture, recently proved in striking fashion by Park and Pham, and present a slightly reformulated simple proof which has a few advantages: (1) it works for non-uniform product measures, (2) it gives…

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…

The Cram\'er-Wold device characterises weak convergence of probability measures on $\mathbb{R}^d$ through convergence of all one-dimensional projected laws. We prove that, if the target projected laws are moment-determinate for…

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…

Let $\{X, X_n, n\geq 1\}$ be a sequence of independent identically distributed non-degenerate random variables. Put $S_0=0, S_n = \sum^n_{i=1} X_i$ and $V_n^2=\sum^n_{i=1} X_i^2, n\ge 1.$ A weak convergence theorem is established for the…

Suppose $B_i:= B(p,r_i)$ are nested balls of radius $r_i$ about a point $p$ in a dynamical system $(T,X,\mu)$. The question of whether $T^i x\in B_i$ infinitely often (i. o.) for $\mu$ a.e.\ $x$ is often called the shrinking target problem.…

We prove bounds for the number of solutions to $$a_1 + \dots + a_k = a_1' + \dots + a_k'$$ over $N$-element sets of reals, which are sufficiently convex or near-convex. A near-convex set will be the image of a set with small additive…

We prove a strong approximation result for the empirical process associated to a stationary sequence of real-valued random variables, under dependence conditions involving only indicators of half lines. This strong approximation result also…

Let (X,d,p) be a pointed metric space. A pretangent space to X at p is a metric space consisting of some equivalence classes of convergent to p sequences (x_n), x_n \in X, whose degree of convergence is comparable with a given scaling…

Consider the spatial Newtonian three body problem at fixed negative energy and fixed angular momentum. The moment of inertia $I$ provides a measure of the overall size of a three-body system. We will prove that there is a positive number…

The inductive size bias coupling technique and Stein's method yield a Berry-Esseen theorem for the number of urns having occupancy $d \ge 2$ when $n$ balls are uniformly distributed over $m$ urns. In particular, there exists a constant $C$…

Almost surely in an Angelesco ensemble,the normalized counting measure of a random point converges weak* to the equilibrium measure.This result, for orthogonal polynomial ensembles, is well-known.

This paper investigates weak convergence of U-statistics via approximation in probability. The classical condition that the second moment of the kernel of the underlying U-statistic exists is relaxed to having 4/3 moments only (modulo a…

Given $n$ independent random marked $d$-vectors $X_i$ with a common density, define the measure $\nu_n = \sum_i \xi_i $, where $\xi_i$ is a measure (not necessarily a point measure) determined by the (suitably rescaled) set of points near…
