We consider a sequence of i.i.d. random variables $\{\xi_k\}$under a sublinear expectation $\mathbb{E}=\sup_{P\in\Theta}E_P$. We first give a new proof to the fact that, under each $P\in\Theta$, any cluster point of the empirical averages…
Let $\{X_n;n\ge 1\}$ be a sequence of independent and identically distributed random variables in a regular sub-linear expectation space $(\Omega,\mathscr{H},\widehat{\mathbb E})$ with the finite Choquet expectation, upper mean…
Given a probability measure over a state space, a partial collection (sub-$\sigma$-algebra) of events whose probabilities are known, induces a capacity over the collection of all possible events. The \emph{induced capacity} of an event $F$…
In this note, we establish a compact law of the iterated logarithm under the upper capacity for independent and identically distributed random variables in a sub-linear expectation space. For showing the result, a self-normalized law of the…
In his influential work Choquet systematically studied capacities on Boolean algebras in a topological space, and gave a probabilistic interpretation for completely monotone (and completely alternating) capacities. Beyond complete…
We show that a family of random variables is uniformly integrable if and only if it is stochastically bounded in the increasing convex order by an integrable random variable. This result is complemented by proving analogous statements for…
We show that a normalized capacity $\nu: \mathcal{P}(\mathbf{N})\to \mathbf{R}$ is invariant with respect to an ideal $\mathcal{I}$ on $\mathbf{N}$ if and only if it can be represented as a Choquet average of $\{0,1\}$-valued finitely…
Given a submodular capacity space, we prove the uniform convergence in capacity and also the uniform convergence in the Choquet-mean of order $p\ge1$ with a quantitative estimate, of the multivariate Bernstein polynomials associated to a…
In many empirical studies of a large two-sided matching market (such as in a college admissions problem), the researcher performs statistical inference under the assumption that they observe a random sample from a large matching market. In…
In this paper, by establishing a Borel-Cantelli lemma for a capacity which is not necessarily continuous, and a link between a sequence of independent random variables under the sub-linear expectation and a sequence of independent random…
We prove that in any finite set of $\mathbb Z^d$ with $d\ge 3$, there is a subset whose capacity and volume are both of the same order as the capacity of the initial set. As an application we obtain estimates on the probability of {\it…
We prove a law of large numbers in terms of complete convergence of independent random variables taking values in increments of monotone functions, with convergence uniform both in the initial and the final time. The result holds also for…
We introduce a notion of capacity for high dimensional critical percolation by showing that for any finite set $A$, the suitably rescaled probability that the cluster of $z$ intersects $A$ converges as $\|z\|\to\infty$. This can be viewed…
We establish a strong law of large numbers and a central limit theorem in the Bures-Wasserstein space of covariance operators -- or equivalently centred Gaussian measures -- over a general separable Hilbert space. Specifically, we show that…
We prove that for q>=1, there exists r(q)<1 such that for p>r(q), the number of points in large boxes which belongs to the infinite cluster has a normal central limit behaviour under the random cluster measure phi_{p,q} on Z^d, d>=2.…
We consider weighted sums of independent random variables regulated by an increment sequence. We provide operative conditions that ensure strong law of large numbers for such sums to hold in both the centered and non-centered case. The…
Let $\{Y_i,-\infty<i<\infty\}$ be a doubly infinite sequence of identically distributed, negatively dependent random variables under sub-linear expectations, $\{a_i,-\infty<i<\infty\}$ be an absolutely summable sequence of real numbers. In…
We consider an infinite-dimensional stochastic clustering model on $\mathbb{R}$. In discrete time, each point of a unit-intensity simple point process moves halfway toward either of its left or right neighbors, chosen uniformly at random.…
In this paper, we establish an almost sure central limit theorem for a general random sequence under a strong approximation condition. Additionally, we derive the law of the iterated logarithm for the center of mass corresponding to a…
It is generally hard to count, or even estimate, how many integer points lie in a polytope P. Barvinok and Hartigan have approached the problem by way of information theory, showing how to efficiently compute a random vector which samples…
