Precise asymptotics in the law of the logarithm for random fields in Hilbert space

Consider the positive d-dimensional lattice Z^d（d≥2） with partial ordering ≤, let {XK; K∈Z＋^d} be i.i.d, random variables taking values in a real separable Hilbert space （H, ｜｜·｜｜） with mean zero and covariance operator ∑ and set partial sums SN =∑K≤nXK,K,N∈Z＋^d. Under some moment conditions, we obtain the precise asymptotics of a kind of weighted infinite series for partial sums SN as ε↓ by using the truncation and approximation methods. The results are related to the convergence rates of the law of the logarithm in Hilbert space, and they also extend the results of （Gut and Spataru, 2003）.

A LAW OF THE ITERATED LOGARITHM FOR NEAREST NEIGHBOR ESTIMATION OF MULTIVARIATE DENSITY FUNCTION

Let X be a d-dimensional random vector with unknown density function f(z) = f (z1, ..., z(d)), and let f(n) be teh nearest neighbor estimator of f proposed by Loftsgaarden and Quesenberry (1965).

Study on the Log-Linear Velocity Profile of Near-Bed Tidal Currentin Estuarine and Coastal Waters

Many observed data show that the near-bed tidal velocity profile deviates from the usual logarithmic law. The amount of deviation may not be large, but it results in large errors when the logarithmic velocity profile is used to calculate the bed roughness height and friction velocity （or shear stress）. Based on their investigation, Kuo et al. （1996） indicate that the deviation amplitude may exceed 100%. On the basis of fluid dynamic principle, the profile of the near-bed tidal velocity in estuarine and coastal waters is established by introducing Prandtl＇ s mixing length theory and Von Kannan selfsimilarity theory. By the fitting and calculation of the near-bed velocity profde data observed in the west Solent, England, the results are compared with those of the usual logarithmic model, and it is shown that the present near-bed tidal velocity profile model has such advantages as higher fitting precision, and better inner consistency between the roughness height and friction velocity. The calculated roughness height and friction velocity are closer to reality. The conclusions are validated that the logarithmic model underestimates the roughness height and friction velocity during tidal acceleration and overestimates them during tidal deceleration.

KERNEL ESTIMATION OF HIGHER DERIVATIVES OF DENSITY AND HAZARD RATE FUNCTION FOR TRUNCATED AND CENSORED DEPENDENT DATA

Based on left truncated and right censored dependent data, the estimators of higher derivatives of density function and hazard rate function are given by kernel smoothing method. When observed data exhibit α-mixing dependence, local properties including strong consistency and law of iterated logarithm are presented. Moreover, when the mode estimator is defined as the random variable that maximizes the kernel density estimator, the asymptotic normality of the mode estimator is established.

STRONG LIMIT THEOREMS FOR EXTENDED INDEPENDENT RANDOM VARIABLES AND EXTENDED NEGATIVELY DEPENDENT RANDOM VARIABLES UNDER SUB-LINEAR EXPECTATIONS

Limit theorems for non-additive probabilities or non-linear expectations are challenging issues which have attracted a lot of interest recently.The purpose of this paper is to study the strong law of large numbers and the law of the iterated logarithm for a sequence of random variables in a sub-linear expectation space under a concept of extended independence which is much weaker and easier to verify than the independence proposed by Peng[20].We introduce a concept of extended negative dependence which is an extension of the kind of weak independence and the extended negative independence relative to classical probability that has appeared in the recent literature.Powerful tools such as moment inequality and Kolmogorov’s exponential inequality are established for these kinds of extended negatively independent random variables,and these tools improve a lot upon those of Chen,Chen and Ng[1].The strong law of large numbers and the law of iterated logarithm are also obtained by applying these inequalities.

ESTIMATION FOR THE AYMPTOTIC VARIANCE OF PARAMETRIC ESTIMATES IN PARTIAL LINEAR MODEL WITH CENSORED DATA

Consider tile partial linear model Y=Xβ+ g(T) + e. Wilers Y is at risk of being censored from the right, g is an unknown smoothing function on [0,1], β is a 1-dimensional parameter to be estimated and e is an unobserved error. In Ref[1,2], it wes proved that the estimator for the asymptotic variance of βn(βn) is consistent. In this paper, we establish the limit distribution and the law of the iterated logarithm for,En, and obtain the convergest rates for En and the strong uniform convergent rates for gn(gn).

STRONG APPROXIMATION FOR MOVING AVERAGE PROCESSES UNDER DEPENDENCE ASSUMPTIONS

Let {Xt,t ≥ 1} be a moving average process defined by Xt = ∑^∞ k=0 αkξt-k, where {αk,k ≥ 0} is a sequence of real numbers and {ξt,-∞ 〈 t 〈 ∞} is a doubly infinite sequence of strictly stationary dependent random variables. Under the conditions of {αk, k ≥ 0} which entail that {Xt, t ≥ 1} is either a long memory process or a linear process, the strong approximation of {Xt, t ≥ 1} to a Gaussian process is studied. Finally, the results are applied to obtain the strong approximation of a long memory process to a fractional Brownian motion and the laws of the iterated logarithm for moving average processes.

STRONG CONVERGENCE RATES OF SEVERAL ESTIMATORS IN SEMIPARAMETRIC VARYING-COEFFICIENT PARTIALLY LINEAR MODELS

This article is concerned with the estimating problem of semiparametric varyingcoefficient partially linear regression models. By combining the local polynomial and least squares procedures Fan and Huang （2005） proposed a profile least squares estimator for the parametric component and established its asymptotic normality. We further show that the profile least squares estimator can achieve the law of iterated logarithm. Moreover, we study the estimators of the functions characterizing the non-linear part as well as the error variance. The strong convergence rate and the law of iterated logarithm are derived for them, respectively.

Furthermore,the precise asymptoties in the law of iterated logarithm of ζ＊（n） is proved.
