Asymptotic Properties Of Polynomials Orthogonal Over Multiply Connected Domains
We investigate the asymptotic behavior of polynomials orthogonal over certain multiply connected domains. Each domain that we consider has an analytic boundary and is, in a strong sense, conformally equivalent to a canonical type of multiply connected domain called a circular domain. The two most …

Asymptotic Properties Of Markov Modulated Sequences With Fast And Slow Time Scales
<p>In this dissertation we investigate asymptotic properties of Markov modulated random processes having two-time scales. The model contains a number of mixing sequences modulated by a switching process that is a discrete-time Markov chain. The motivation of our study stems from applications in …

The effect of conspecific support on the asymptotic properties of competing species
The long term properties, like coexistence and extinction, are usually determined by the demographics of the competing species or other competitive advantages. In this dissertation we consider the effect of conspecific support on the coexistence of species. We show that, even if the competing …

Asymptotic properties of solutions of a KdV-Burgers equation with localized dissipation
… investigation into the spectral and smoothing properties of the linearized system, it is shown by applying Banach Contraction Principle and Gronwall's Inequality to the integral equation based on the variation of parameters formula and explicit representation of the operator semigroup …

Conformal and asymptotic properties of embedded genus-g minimal surfaces with one end
… R3 [12, 19-22], we investigate the conformal and asymptotic properties of complete, embedded minimal surfaces of finite genus and one end. We first present a more geometric proof of the uniqueness of the helicoid than the original, due to Meeks and Rosenberg [45]. That is, the only properly …

Sieve bootstrap based prediction intervals and unit root tests for time series
… bootstrap to ARIMA and FARIMA processes. The asymptotic properties of the sieve bootstrap prediction intervals for such processes are established, and the finite sample properties are examined by employing Monte Carlo simulations. The Monte Carlo simulation study shows that the proposed method …

Local behavior of distributions and applications
This dissertation studies local and asymptotic properties of distributions (generalized functions) in connection to several problems in harmonic analysis, approximation theory, classical real and complex function theory, tauberian theory, summability of divergent series and integrals, and number …

Stochastic adaptive system theory for identification, filtering, prediction and control
This thesis examines the basic asymptotic properties of various stochastic adaptive systems for identification, filtering, prediction and control. These include the convergence of long-term averages of signals of interest (self-optimality), the convergence of adaptive filters or controllers …

Invariants and zeta functions associated to totally disconnected locally compact groups
Studying invariants and asymptotic properties relative to groups plays a prominent role in several classification problems. This thesis focuses on some cohomological and geometric invariants (e.g., number of ends, cohomological dimension and Euler-Poincaré characteristic) and certain growth series …

Asymptotics of Carleman Polynomials for Level Curves of the Inverse of a Shifted Joukowsky Transformation
… omitted]In this thesis we investigate the asymptotic properties of the sequence of polynomials that are orthonormal over the interior domain of L with respect to the area measure. We establish strong asymptotic formulas describing the behavior of these polynomials (as their degree …

Diagnostics for generalized linear models
… in a generalized linear model context. Some asymptotic properties are discussed and numerical examples are provided to illustrate the techniques for binomial, Poisson, and gamma distributed random variables.

The constitutional approach to the fiscal process: an inquiry into some logical foundations
… the study is the identification of some logical properties that are expected to characterize the “separation-of-decisions” paradigm of the fiscal decision process. The latter refers to an institutional framework where collective choices of tax-sharing arrangements are assumed to be made in …

Cox-type model validation with recurrent event data
… processes and martingales machinery techniques. Asymptotic properties of the proposed estimators and how they can be used to construct confidence intervals are investigated. The results of the simulation studies assessing the performance of the estimators and an application to a biomedical …

Change Point Detection and Estimation in Sequences of Dependent Random Variables
… binary random variables are proposed and their asymptotic properties are explored. The two procedures are a dependent cumulative sum statistic (DCUSUM) and a dependent likelihood ratio test (LRT) statistic, which are generalizations of the independent CUSUM and LRT statistics.</p> <p>A one step …

SOME PROBLEMS IN BAYESIAN INFERENCE IN A NONCLASSICAL SETTING (OPERATIONAL STATISTICS, BETTING RATES, COHERENCE)
… the Bayesian inference strategy is investigated. Asymptotic properties of the Bayesian inference strategy are examined both at the level of betting rates and at the level of second-order probabilities.</p>

Design and Analysis of Pharmacokinetic and Pharmacodynamic Trials
… selection and labelling. We investigated the asymptotic properties of two stage procedures and developed a two-stage procedure based on the subject by period model for the analysis of cross-over PK/PD data. This procedure does not rely on normality assumptions and can be enhanced by robust …

On Logistic Regression Approach to Survival Data and Power Divergence Statistics for Life Tables
… In the first part of this thesis, large sample properties of this logistic regression method are developed. It is shown that under some regularity conditions the hazard rate and survival function estimators are consistent and their corresponding asymptotic normality results also hold. Extension …

Estimation in random field models for noisy spatial data
… of this dissertation is to explore statistical properties of noisy spatial data through estimation of the Gaussian random field. Large sample properties of the Maximum Likelihood Estimator (MLE) of an Onrstein-Uhlenbeck process model with measurement error are studied. The effect caused by …
