Given a bounded operator $T$ on a Banach space $X$, we study the existence of a probability measure $\mu$ on $X$ such that, for many functions $f:X\to\mathbb K$, the sequence $(f+\dots+f\circ T^{n-1})/\sqrt n$ converges in distribution to a…

In decision-making problems under uncertainty, probabilistic constraints are a valuable tool to express safety of decisions. They result from taking the probability measure of a given set of random inequalities depending on the decision…

We prove comparison theorems for small ball probabilities of the Green Gaussian processes in weighted $L_2$-norms. We find the sharp small ball asymptotics for many classical processes under quite general assumptions on the weight.
