We demonstrate how the asymptotics for large $|z|$ of the generalised Bessel function \[{}_0\Psi_1(z)=\sum_{n=0}^\infty\frac{z^n}{\Gamma(an+b) n!},\] where $a>-1$ and $b$ is any number (real or complex), may be obtained by exploiting the…

Let $T$ be the Student one- or two-sample $t$-, $F$-, or Welch statistic. Now release the underlying assumptions of normality, independence and identical distribution and consider a more general case where one only assumes that the vector…

The Bell inequalities in three and four correlations are re-derived in general forms showing that three and four data sets, respectively, identically satisfy them regardless of whether they are random, deterministic, measured, predicted, or…

We consider optimal stopping problems, in which a sequence of independent random variables is drawn from a known continuous density. The objective of such problems is to find a procedure which maximizes the expected reward; this is often…

In the abstract of [1] we read: "We obtain so far unproved properties of a ratio involving a classof Hermite and parabolic cylinder functions." However, we explain how some of the main results in that paper were already proved in [2],…

This paper is concerned with the asymptotic behavior of sums of terms which are a test function f evaluated at successive increments of a discretely sampled semimartingale. Typically the test function is a power function (when the power is…

We study asymptotic behaviour of stochastic approximation procedures with three main characteristics: truncations with random moving bounds, a matrix valued random step-size sequence, and a dynamically changing random regression function.…

Asymptotic expansions are derived for associated Legendre functions of degree $\nu$ and order $\mu$, where one or the other of the parameters is large. The expansions are uniformly valid for unbounded real and complex values of the argument…

Easily computable lower and upper bounds are found for the sum of Catalan numbers. The lower bound is proven to be tighter than the upper bound, which previously was declared to be only an asymptotic. The average of these bounds is proven…

We introduce Bell inequalities based on covariance, one of the most common measures of correlation. Explicit examples are discussed, and violations in quantum theory are demonstrated. A crucial feature of these covariance Bell inequalities…

Characterizing the set of all Bell inequalities is a notably hard task. An insightful method of solving it in case of Bell correlation inequalities for scenarios with two dichotomic measurements per site - for arbitrary number of parties -…

Convergence rate estimates in limit theorems for sums of independent random variables are considered.

The trade-off relation between the rate and the strong converse exponent for probabilistic asymptotic entanglement transformations between pure multipartite states can in principle be characterised in terms of a class of entanglement…

We consider the asymptotic expansion of the Wright function \[W_{\lambda,\mu}(z)=\sum_{n=0}^\infty\frac{z^n}{n! \Gamma(\lambda n+\mu)}\qquad (\lambda>-1)\] for large (positive and negative) variable and large parameter $\mu$. The analysis…
