In this paper, Lp convergence and almost sure convergence of the Milstein approximation of a partial differential equation of advection–diffusion type driven by a multiplicative continuous martingale is proven. The (semidiscrete) approximation in space is a projection onto a finite dimensional...

In this paper, we show that central order statistics from strictly stationary and ergodic sequences are strongly consistent estimators of population quantiles provided that the quantiles are unique. We generalize this result to strictly stationary but not necessarily ergodic sequences. We also...

We investigate the asymptotic behavior of the least squares estimator of the unknown parameters of random coefficient bifurcating autoregressive processes. Under suitable assumptions on inherited and environmental effects, we establish the almost sure convergence of our estimates. In addition,...

We establish the asymptotic normality of the sample principal components of functional stochastic processes under nonrestrictive assumptions which admit nonlinear functional time series models. We show that the aforementioned asymptotic depends only on the asymptotic normality of the sample...

The paper considers the block sampling method for long-range dependent processes. Our theory generalizes earlier ones by Hall et al. (1998) [11] on functionals of Gaussian processes and Nordman and Lahiri (2005) [16] on linear processes. In particular, we allow nonlinear transforms of linear...

Trimming is a standard method to decrease the effect of large sample elements in statistical procedures, used, e.g., for constructing robust estimators and tests. Trimming also provides a profound insight into the partial sum behavior of i.i.d. sequences. There is a wide and nearly complete...

We obtain central limit theorems for additive functionals of stationary fields under integrability conditions on the higher-order spectral densities. The proofs are based on the Hölder–Young–Brascamp–Lieb inequality.
