Abstract

Let (X)Zd(X_{\underline{\ell}})_{\underline{\ell} \in \mathbb Z^d} be a real random field (r.f.) indexed by Zd\mathbb Z^d with common probability distribution function FF. Let (zk)k=0(z_k)_{k=0}^\infty be a sequence in Zd\mathbb Z^d. The empirical process obtained by sampling the random field along (zk)(z_k) is k=0n1[1XzksF(s)]\sum_{k=0}^{n-1} [{\bf 1}_{X_{z_k} \leq s}- F(s)]. We give conditions on (zk)(z_k) implying the Glivenko-Cantelli theorem for the empirical process sampled along (zk)(z_k) in different cases (independent, associated or weakly correlated random variables). We consider also the functional central limit theorem when the XX_{\underline{\ell}}'s are i.i.d. These conditions are examined when (zk)(z_k) is provided by an auxiliary stationary process in the framework of ``random ergodic theorems''.
