A local limit theorem for is obtained, where τ a is the first time a random walk Sn with positive drift exceeds a. Applications to large-deviation probabilities and to the crossing of a non-linear boundary are given.

AbstractWe prove large deviation principles for ergodic averages of dynamical systems admitting Markov tower extensions with exponential return times. Our main technical result from which a number of limit theorems are derived is the analyticity of logarithmic moment generating functions. Among the classes of dynamical systems to which our results apply are piecewise hyperbolic diffeomorphisms, dispersing billiards including Lorentz gases, and strange attractors of rank one including Hénon-type attractors.

We model the transmission of a message on the complete graph with n vertices and limited resources. The vertices of the graph represent servers that may broadcast the message at random. Each server has a random emission capital that decreases at each emission. Quantities of interest are the number of servers that receive the information before the capital of all the informed servers is exhausted and the exhaustion time. We establish limit theorems (law of large numbers, central limit theorem and large deviation principle), as n → ∞, for the proportion of informed vertices before exhaustion and for the total duration. The analysis relies on a construction of the transmission procedure as a dynamical selection of successful nodes in a Galton–Watson tree with respect to the success epochs of the coupon collector problem.

In this paper, we show weak convergence of the empirical eigenvalue distribution and of the weighted spectral measure of the Jacobi ensemble, when one or both parameters grow faster than the dimension n. In these cases, the limit measure is given by the Marchenko–Pastur law and the semicircle law, respectively. For the weighted spectral measure, we also prove large deviation principles under this scaling, where the rate functions are those of the other classical ensembles.

<p>The statistical analysis of a large number of rare events, (LNRE), which can also be called statistical theory of diversity, is the subject of acute interest both in statistical theory and in numerous applications. A careful eye will quickly see the presence of a large number of very rare objects almost everywhere: large numbers of rare species in ecosystems, large numbers of rare opinions in any opinion pool, large numbers of small admixtures in any solution and large numbers of rare words in any text are only few examples. In studying such objects, the interest for mathematical statisticians lies in the fact that most of the frequencies are small and, therefore, difficult to deal with. It is not immediately clear how one should be able to derive consistent and reliable inference from a large number of such frequencies. In this thesis we study the diversity of questionnaires with multiple answers. It has been demonstrated that this is a particular model of LNRE theory. In our analysis, the theories of large deviation, contiguity and Edgeworth expansion were employed, and limit theorems have been established.</p>

Abstract By extending the methods of Peligrad et al. (2014), we establish exact moderate and large deviation asymptotics for linear random fields with independent innovations. These results are useful for studying nonparametric regression with random field errors and strong limit theorems.

Quantum Bernoulli random walks can be realized as random walks on the dual of SU(2). We use this realization in order to study a model of dynamic quantum Bernoulli random walk with time-dependent transitions. For the corresponding dynamic random walk on the dual of SU(2), we prove several limit theorems (local limit theorem, central limit theorem, law of large numbers, large deviation principle). In addition, we characterize a large class of transient dynamic random walks.
