In this paper, by using a new comparison inequality for order statistics of Gaussian variables, we proved an almost sure central limit theorem for extreme order statistics of stationary Gaussian sequences with covariance rn under the condition rn log n(log log n)1+? = O(1) for some ? > 0. A similar result on intermediate order statistics is also proved for stationary Gaussian sequences. The obtained results improve some of the existing results.

We obtain the almost sure central limit theorem (ASCLT) of sample quantiles. Furthermore, based on the method, the ASCLT of order statistics is also proved.

We consider the first passage percolation problem on the random graph with vertex set N x {0, 1}, edges joining vertices at a Euclidean distance equal to unity, and independent exponential edge weights. We provide a central limit theorem for the first passage times l n between the vertices (0, 0) and (n, 0), thus extending earlier results about the almost-sure convergence of l n / n as n → ∞. We use generating function techniques to compute the n-step transition kernels of a closely related Markov chain which can be used to explicitly calculate the asymptotic variance in the central limit theorem.
