A brief presentation of basics of the theory of Tchebycheff and Markov systems of functions and its applications to extremal problems for integrals of such functions is given. The results, as well as all the necessary definitions, are…

A famous result in renewal theory is the Central Limit Theorem for renewal processes. As in applications usually only observations from a finite time interval are available, a bound on the Kolmogorov distance to the normal distribution is…

In this paper, under mild assumptions, we derive a law of large numbers, a central limit theorem with an error estimate, an almost sure invariance principle and a variant of Chernoff bound in finite-state hidden Markov models. These limit…

This paper investigates a new formalism to describe real time evolution of quantum systems at finite temperature. A time correlation function among subsystems will be derived which allows for a probabilistic interpretation. Our derivation…

Diffusion approximations are widely used in the analysis of service systems, providing tractable insights into complex models. While heavy-traffic limit theorems justify these approximations asymptotically, they do not quantify the error…

The Chernoff bound is an important inequality relation in probability theory. The original version of the Chernoff bound is to give an exponential decreasing bound on the tail distribution of sums of independent random variables. Recent…

When dealing with modern big data sets, a very common theme is reducing the set through a random process. These generally work by making "many simple estimates" of the full data set, and then judging them as a whole. Perhaps magically,…

We present a Law of Large Numbers principle for uniformly continuous random quantum dynamical semigroups. Random iterates of independent copies of these semigroups are shown to be Chernoff equivalent to the quantum dynamical semigroup by…

The idea of the restricted mean has been used to establish a significantly improved version of Markov's inequality that does not require any new assumptions. The result immediately extends on Chebyshev's inequalities and Chernoff's bound.…

Normally we quantize along the space dimensions but treat time classically. But from relativity we expect a high level of symmetry between time and space. What happens if we quantize time using the same rules we use to quantize space? To do…

The Chernoff bound is one of the most widely used tools in theoretical computer science. It's rare to find a randomized algorithm that doesn't employ a Chernoff bound in its analysis. The standard proofs of Chernoff bounds are beautiful but…
