A set [Formula: see text] is called predictive if for any zero entropy finite-valued stationary process [Formula: see text], [Formula: see text] is measurable with respect to [Formula: see text]. We know that [Formula: see text] is a predictive set. In this paper, we give sufficient conditions and necessary ones for a set to be predictive. We also discuss linear predictivity, predictivity among Gaussian processes and relate these to Riesz sets which arise in harmonic analysis.

AbstractNecessary and sufficient conditions to ensure that the direct sum of two Abelian groups with zero entropy is again of zero entropy are still unknown; interestingly the same problem is also unresolved for direct sums of Hopfian and co-Hopfian groups.We obtain sufficient conditions in some situations by placing restrictions on the homomorphisms between the groups. There are clear similarities between the various cases but there is not a simple duality involved.

In this paper, we consider the stochastic sequence {Yt}t∊ℕ defined recursively by the linear relation Yt+1 = AtYt + Bt in a random environment which is described by the non-stationary process {(At, Bt)}t∊ℕ. We formulate sufficient conditions on the environment which ensure that the finite-dimensional distributions of {Yt}t∊ℕ converge weakly to the finite-dimensional distributions of a unique stationary process. If the driving sequence {(At, Bt)}t∊ℕ becomes stationary in the long run, then we can establish a global convergence result. This extends results of Brandt (1986) and Borovkov (1998) from the stationary to the non-stationary case.

We consider the equivalence of state probabilities of a general stationary process at an arbitrary time and at embedded epochs of a given point process, which is called ASTA (Arrivals See Time Averages). By using an event-conditonal intensity, we give necessary and sufficient conditions for ASTA for a large class of state sets, which determines a state distribution. We do not need any additional assumptions except that the general process has left-hand limits at all points of time. Especially, for a stationary pure-jump process with a point process, ASTA is obtained for all state sets. As an application of those results, Anti-PASTA is obtained for a pure-jump Markov process and a certain class of GSMP (Generalized Semi-Markov Processes), where Anti-PASTA means that ASTA implies that the arrival process is Poisson.

We shall discuss the sample path continuity of a stationary process assuming that the spectral distribution function F(λ) is given. Many kinds of sufficient conditions have been given in terms of the covariance function or the asymptotic behavior of the spectral distribution function.

AbstractIn 1962 Lamperti introduced a transformation that associates to every non-trivial self-similar process a strictly stationary process. This transform has been widely studied for Gaussian processes and in particular for fractional Brownian motion. Our aim is to analyze various properties of the Lamperti transform of the fractional Brownian sheet. We give the stochastic differential equation satisfied by this transform and we represent it as a series of independent Ornstein-Uhlenbeck sheets.

This paper is devoted to the perfect simulation of a stationary process with an at most countable state space. The process is specified through a kernel, prescribing the probability of the next state conditional to the whole past history. We follow the seminal work of Comets, Fernández and Ferrari (2002), who gave sufficient conditions for the construction of a perfect simulation algorithm. We define backward coalescence times for these kind of processes, which allow us to construct perfect simulation algorithms under weaker conditions than in Comets, Fernández and Ferrari (2002). We discuss how to construct backward coalescence times (i) by means of information depths, taking into account some a priori knowledge about the histories that occur; and (ii) by identifying suitable coalescing events.
