This paper deals with empirical processes of the type Cn(B) = n^(1/2) {µn(B) - P(Xn+1 in B | X1, . . . ,Xn)} , where (Xn) is a sequence of random variables and µn = (1/n)SUM(i=1,..,n) d(Xi) the empirical measure. Conditions for supB|Cn(B)| to converge stably (in particular, in distribution)...

Let (omega, beta) be a measurable space, An in B a sub-sigma-field and µn a random probability measure, n = 1. In various frameworks, one looks for a probability P on B such that µn is a regular conditional distribution for P given An for all n. Conditions for such a P to exist are given. The...

Let L be a linear space of real bounded random variables on the probability space (omega,A, P0). There is a finitely additive probability P on A, such that P tilde P0 and EP (X) = 0 for all X in L, if and only if cEQ(X) = ess sup(-X), X in L, for some constant c 0 and (countably additive)...

Let (S, B, G ) and (T, C,Q) be probability spaces, with Q nonatomic, and H = {h in C : Q(H) 0}. In some economic models, the following conditional law of large numbers (LLN) is requested. There are a probability space (O,A,P) and a process X = {Xt : t in T}, with state space (S, B), satisfying...

Let µn be a probability measure on the Borel sigma-field on D[0, 1] with respect to Skorohod distance, n = 0. Necessary and sufficient conditions for the following statement are provided. On some probability space, there are D[0, 1]-valued random variables Xn such that Xn tilde µn for all n =...

An urn contains balls of d = 2 colors. At each time n = 1, a ball is drawn and then replaced together with a random number of balls of the same color. Let An =diag (An,1, . . . ,An,d) be the n-th reinforce matrix. Assuming EAn,j = EAn,1 for all n and j, a few CLT s are available for such urns....
