We analyze the asymptotic behavior of random variables $x(n,x\_0)$ defined by $x(0,x\_0)=x\_0$ and $x(n+1,x\_0)=A(n)x(n,x\_0)$, where $\sAn$ is a stationary and ergodic sequence of random matrices with entries in the semi-ring…

We give an asymptotic estimate for the number of partitions of a set of $n$ elements, whose block sizes avoid a given set $\mathcal{S}$ of natural numbers. As an application, we derive an estimate for the number of partitions of a set with…

A general method is presented for deriving the limiting behavior of estimators that are defined as the values of parameters optimizing an empirical criterion function. The asymptotic behavior of such estimators is typically deduced from…

We derive an asymptotic expansion for the distribution of a compound sum of independent random variables, all having the same light-tailed subexponential distribution. The examples of a Poisson and geometric number of summands serve as an…

The omega limit sets plays a fundamental role to construct global attractors for topological semi-dynamical systems with continuous time or discrete time. Therefore, it is important to know when omega limit sets become nonempty compact…

We consider the asymptotic distribution of a cell in a 2 x ... x 2 contingency table as the fixed marginal totals tend to infinity. The asymptotic order of the cell variance is derived and a useful diagnostic is given for determining…

Let $S$ be a finite set, and $X_1,\ldots,X_n$ an i.i.d. uniform sample from $S$. To estimate the size $|S|$, without further structure, one can wait for repeats and use the birthday problem. This requires a sample size of the order…

Let I_1,...,I_n be independent but not necessarily identically distributed Bernoulli random variables, and let X_n=\sum_{j=1}^nI_j. For \nu in a bounded region, a local central limit theorem expansion of P(X_n=EX_n+\nu) is developed to any…

The set A = {a_n} of nonnegative integers is an asymptotic basis of order h if every sufficiently large integer can be represented as the sum of h elements of A. If a_n ~ alpha n^h for some real number alpha > 0, then alpha is called an…

The function $g(x)= (1+1/x)^{x}$ has the well-known limit $e$ as $x\rightarrow{\infty}$. The coefficients $c_{j}$ in an asymptotic expansion for $g(x)$ are considered. A simple recursion formula is derived, and then using Cauchy's integral…

We define the notion of asymptotically free for locally restricted compositions, which means roughly that large parts can often be replaced by any larger parts. Two well-known examples are Carlitz and alternating compositions. We show that…

In this paper, we prove a conditional limit theorem for independent not necessarily identically distributed random variables. Namely, we obtain the asymptotic distribution of a large number of them given the sum.

In previous papers, we studied the asymptotic behaviour of $S_N(A,X)=(2N+1)^{-d/2}\sum_{n \in A_N} X_n,$ where $X$ is a centered, stationary and weakly dependent random field, and $A_N=A \cap [-N,N]^d$, $A \subset \mathbb{Z}^d$. This leads…
