We generalize (or weaken) the monotonic condition on the coefficient sequence {a n } in this classical result to the so-called mean value bounded variation condition and prove that the generalized condition cannot be weakened further. We also establish an analogue to the generalized Chaundy-Jolliffe theorem in the complex space.展开更多

The consistency and the rate of convergence for the estimated change point are established. The asymptotic distribution for the change point estimator is obtained. The results are also true for ρ-mixing, φ-mixing, α-mixing sequences under suitable conditions. These results extend those of Bai, who studied the mean shift point of a linear process of i.i.d, variables, and the condition ∑j=0^∞j|aj| 〈 ∞ in Bai is weakened to ∑j=0^∞|aj|〈∞.展开更多

We use Hansen’s approach to show that the James-Stein shrinkage estimator converges asymptotically to some multivariate normal distribution with shrinkage effect values. We establish that the rate of convergence is of order and rate , hence the James-Stein shrinkage estimator is -consistent. Then visualise its consistency by studying the asymptotic behaviour using simulating plots in R for the mean squared error of the maximum likelihood estimator and the shrinkage estimator. The latter graphically shows lower mean squared error as compared to that of the maximum likelihood estimator.展开更多

The method is proved to be mean-square convergent of order min{1/2,p} under the Lipschitz condition and the linear growth condition, where p is the exponent of HSlder condition of the initial function. Stability criteria for this type of method are derived. It is shown that for certain choices of the flexible parameter p the derived method can have a better stability property than more commonly used numerical methods. That is, for some p, the asymptotic MS-stability bound of the method will be much larger than that of the Euler-Maruyama method. Numerical results are reported confirming convergence properties and comparing stability properties of methods with different parameters p. Finally, the vectorised simulation is discussed and it is shown that this implementation is much more efficient.展开更多

文摘Chaundy and Jolliffe proved that if {a n } is a non-increasing (monotonic) real sequence with lim n →∞ a n = 0, then a necessary and sufficient condition for the uniform convergence of the series ∑∞ n=1 a n sin nx is lim n →∞ na n = 0. We generalize (or weaken) the monotonic condition on the coefficient sequence {a n } in this classical result to the so-called mean value bounded variation condition and prove that the generalized condition cannot be weakened further. We also establish an analogue to the generalized Chaundy-Jolliffe theorem in the complex space.

文摘This paper presents a strong predictor-corrector method for the numerical solution of stochastic delay differential equations (SDDEs) of ItS-type. The method is proved to be mean-square convergent of order min{1/2,p} under the Lipschitz condition and the linear growth condition, where p is the exponent of HSlder condition of the initial function. Stability criteria for this type of method are derived. It is shown that for certain choices of the flexible parameter p the derived method can have a better stability property than more commonly used numerical methods. That is, for some p, the asymptotic MS-stability bound of the method will be much larger than that of the Euler-Maruyama method. Numerical results are reported confirming convergence properties and comparing stability properties of methods with different parameters p. Finally, the vectorised simulation is discussed and it is shown that this implementation is much more efficient.
