Given a sequence of real numbers, we consider its subsequences converging to possibly different limits and associate to each of them an index of convergence which depends on the density of the associated subsequences. This index turns out…

The omnipotence of copulas when modeling dependence given marg\-inal distributions in a multivariate stochastic situation is assured by the Sklar's theorem. Montes et al.\ (2015) suggest the notion of what they call an \emph{imprecise…

Inference on an extreme-value copula usually proceeds via its Pickands dependence function, which is a convex function on the unit simplex satisfying certain inequality constraints. In the setting of an iid random sample from a multivariate…

The minimization of some multivariate risk indicators may be used as an allocation method, as proposed in C\'enac et al. [6]. The aim of capital allocation is to choose a point in a simplex, according to a given criterion. In a previous…

We consider large random graphs with prescribed degrees, such as those generated by the configuration model. In the regime where the empirical degree distribution approaches a limit $\mu$ with finite mean, we establish the systematic…

Copulas are now frequently used to construct or estimate multivariate distributions because of their ability to take into account the multivariate dependence of the different variables while separately specifying marginal distributions.…

Copulas are a powerful tool to model dependence between the components of a random vector. One well-known class of copulas when working in two dimensions is the Farlie-GumbelMorgenstern (FGM) copula since their simple analytic shape enables…

A stochastic model for intermittent fluctuations in the scrape-off layer of magnetically confined plasmas has been constructed based on a super-position of uncorrelated pulses arriving according to a Poisson process. In the most common…

We express generalized Cauchy-Stieltjes transforms of some particular Beta distributions (of ultraspherical type generating functions for orthogonal polynomials) as a powered Cauchy-Stieltjes transform of some measure. For suitable values…

Inspired by the idea of Bernoulli decomposition, we give a simple proof for a generalization of Hal\'asz anti--concentration result about random sum of vectores in $\mathbb{R}^d$. From our results, we can give one upper bound for the…

We study couples of interpolators, the differentials they generate and their associated commutator theorems. An essential part of our analysis is the study of the intrinsic symmetries of the process. Since we work without any compatibility…

We define a class of divergences to measure differences between probability density functions in one-dimensional sample space. The construction is based on the convex function with the Jacobi operator of mapping function that pushforwards…
