Let {Xn} (n = 1, 2 , …) be a stochastic process. The random variables comprising it or the process itself will be said to be interchangeable if, for any choice of distinct positive integers i 1, i 2, H 3 … , ik, the joint distribution of depends merely on k and is independent of the integers i 1, i 2, … , i k. It was shown by De Finetti (3) that the probability measure for any interchangeable process is a mixture of probability measures of processes each consisting of independent and identically distributed random variables.

LetXn1≦Xn2≦ ··· ≦Xnndenote the order statistics from a sample ofnindependent, identically distributed random variables, and suppose that the variablesXnn, Xn,n–1, ···, when suitably normalized, have a non-trivial limiting joint distributionξ1,ξ2, ···, asn → ∞. It is well known that the limiting distribution must be one of just three types. We provide a canonical representation of the stochastic process {ξn,n≧ 1} in terms of exponential variables, and use this representation to obtain limit theorems forξnasn →∞.

In this paper we propose a stochastic process, which is a Cox-Ingersoll-Ross process with Hawkes jumps. It can be seen as a generalization of the classical Cox-Ingersoll-Ross process and the classical Hawkes process with exponential exciting function. Our model is a special case of the affine point processes. We obtain Laplace transforms and limit theorems, including the law of large numbers, central limit theorems, and large deviations.

This paper is on conditioned weak limit theorems for imbedded waiting-time processes of an M/G/1 queue. More specifically we study functional limit theorems for the actual waiting-time process conditioned by the event that the number of customers in a busy period exceeds n or equals n. Attention is also paid to the actual waiting-time process with random time index. Combined with the existing literature on the subject this paper gives a complete account of the conditioned limit theorems for the actual waiting-time process of an M/G/1 queue for arbitrary traffic intensity and for a rather general class of service-time distributions. The limit processes that occur are Brownian excursion and meander, while in the case of random time index also the following limit occurs: Brownian excursion divided by an independent and uniform (0, 1) distributed random variable.

Fractional Brownian motion as a method for estimating the parameters of a stochastic process by variance and one-step increment covariance is proposed and substantiated. The root-mean-square consistency of the constructed estimates has been proven. The obtained results complement and generalize the consequences of limit theorems for fractional Brownian motion, that have been proved in the number of articles. The necessity to estimate the variance is caused by the absence of a base unit of time and the estimation of the covariance allows one to determine the Hurst exponent. The established results let the known limit theorems to be used to construct goodness-of-fit criteria for the hypothesis “the observed time series is a transformation of fractional Brownian motion” and to estimate the error of optimal forecasting for time series.

The techniques used by Doeblin and Chung to obtain ordinary limit laws (central limit laws, weak and strong laws of large numbers, and laws of the iterated logarithm) for Markov chains, are extended to obtain analogous functional limit laws for stochastic processes which have embedded processes satisfying these laws. More generally, it is shown how functional limit laws of a stochastic process are related to those of a process embedded in it. The results herein unify and extend many existing limit laws for Markov, semi-Markov, queueing, regenerative, semi-stationary, and subordinated processes.

This paper is concerned with the rate of convergence of certain functionals associated with a stochastic process arising in the modelling of soil erosion. Some limit theorems are derived for the total crop production Sn over a number n of years, and the rate of convergence of Sn to its limit S is discussed. Some stability assumptions are considered, and particular stable geometric infinitely divisible processes analyzed.
