It is shown for a supercritical branching process with immigration that if the log moment of the immigration distribution is infinite, then no sequence of positive constants {cn} exists such that {Xn/cn} converges in law to a proper limit distribution function F, except for the case F(0 +) = 1. Seneta's result [1] combined with the above-mentioned one imply that if 1 < m < ∞ then the finiteness of the log moment of the immigration distribution is a necessary and sufficient condition for the existence of some constants {cn} such that {Xn/cn} converges in law to a proper limit distribution function F, with F(0 +) < 1.

It is shown for a supercritical branching process with immigration that if the log moment of the immigration distribution is infinite, then no sequence of positive constants {cn } exists such that {Xn/cn } converges in law to a proper limit distribution function F, except for the case F(0 +) = 1. Seneta's result [1] combined with the above-mentioned one imply that if 1 &lt; m &lt; ∞ then the finiteness of the log moment of the immigration distribution is a necessary and sufficient condition for the existence of some constants {cn } such that {Xn /c n} converges in law to a proper limit distribution function F, with F(0 +) &lt; 1.

Every Euclidean algorithm is associated with a kind of continued fraction representation of a number. The representation associated with "odd" Euclidean algorithm we will call "odd" continued fraction. We consider the limit distribution function F(x) for sequences of rationals with bounded sum of partial quotients for "odd" continued fractions. In this paper we prove certain properties of the function F(x). Particularly this function is singular and satisfies a number of functional equations. We also show that the value F(x) can be expressed in terms of partial quotients of the "odd" continued fraction representation of a number x.

We compute the limit distribution for the (centered and scaled) length of the longest increasing subsequence of random colored permutations. The limit distribution function is a power of that for usual random permutations computed recently by Baik, Deift, and Johansson (math.CO/9810105). In the two–colored case our method provides a different proof of a similar result by Tracy and Widom about the longest increasing subsequences of signed permutations (math.CO/9811154). Our main idea is to reduce the 'colored' problem to the case of usual random permutations using certain combinatorial results and elementary probabilistic arguments.

It is shown that, under certain conditions, satisfied by stable distributions, symmetric distributions, distributions with zero mean and finite second moment and other distributions, the distribution function of the maxima of successive partial sums of identically distributed random variables has an asymptotic property. This property implies the regular variation of the tail of the distribution of the hitting times of the associated random walk, and hence that these hitting times belong to the domain of attraction of a stable law.

1. Introduction. Since the first proofs by Kolmogorov (13) and Smirnov ((14), (15)) of their well-known results on the limit distribution of the deviations of the sample distribution function, many alternative proofs of these results have been given. For example, we may cite the various approaches of Feller (4), Doob (3), Kac (8), Gnedenko and Korolyuk(7), and Anderson and Darling (1). The approaches of (3), (8) and (1) rest on a probabilistic computation regarding the Wiener process, and are justified by the paper of Donsker (2) (see also (11)). Of all these approaches, only those of (8) and (1) can be extended to obtain the limit distributions of the ‘k–sample’ generalizations of the Kolmogorov-Smirnov statistics suggested in (9), and the author ((9), (10)) and Gihman(6) carried out such proofs.

For q,m,n,d ∈ N and some multiplicative function f > 0, we denote by T3(n) the sum of f(d) over the ordered triples (q,m,d) with qmd = n. We prove that Cesaro mean of distribution functions defined by means of T3 uniformly converges to the one-parameter Dirichlet distribution function. The parameter of the limit distribution depends on the values of f on primes. The remainder term is estimated as well.
