The lifespan of an individual is determined at its birth and its remaining lifetime decreases at the unit speed. The models, without or with immigration, are constructed as measure-valued processes by pathwise unique solutions of stochastic equations driven by time-space Poisson random measures. In the subcritical branching case, we give a sufficient condition for the ergodicity of the process with immigration. Two large number laws and a central limit theorem of the occupation times are proved.展开更多

With the properties of the s-doubly diagonally dominant matrices and the properties of comparison matrices, some equivalent conditions for H-matrices are presented. These conditions generalize and improve existing results about the equivalent conditions for H-matrices. Applications and examples using these new equivalent conditions are also presented, and a new inclusion region of k-multiple eigenvalues of matrices is obtained.

As applications of these inequalities, by employing the notions of residual Cesàro α-integrability and strong residual Cesàro α-integrability, we derive some results on Lp convergence where 1 < p < 2 and complete convergence. In addition, we estimate the rate of convergence in Marcinkiewicz-Zygmund strong law for partial sums of identically distributed random variables.展开更多

In this paper, we consider the inference of a change point problem in single index models. Based on density-weighted average derivative estimation (ADE) method, we propose a statistic to test whether a change point exists or not. The null distribution of the test statistic is obtained using a permutation technique. The permuted statistic is rigorously shown to have the same distribution in the limiting sense under both null and alternative hypotheses. After the null hypothesis of no change point is rejected, an ADE-based estimate of the change point is proposed under assumption that the change point is unique. A simulation study confirms the theoretical results.展开更多

The method typically has O(N) complexity when applied to boundary integral equations (BIEs) in the plane with non-oscillatory kernels such as those associated with the Laplace and Stokes' equations. The scaling coefficient suppressed by the "big-O" notation depends logarithraically on the requested accuracy. The method can also be applied to BIEs with oscillatory kernels such as those associated with the Helmholtz and time-harmonic Maxwell equations; it is efficient at long and intermediate wave-lengths, but will eventually become prohibitively slow as the wave-length decreases. To achieve linear complexity, rank: deficiencies in the off-diagonal blocks of the coefficient matrix are exploited. The technique is conceptually related to the H- and H2-matrix arithmetic of Hackbusch and coworkers, and is closely related to previous work on Hierarchically Semi-Separable matrices.展开更多

Denote T n = (W n ? ? 0)/s n , where s n 2 is a variance estimator of W n . In this paper a general result on the limiting distributions of the non-central studentized statistic T n is given. Especially, when s n 2 is the jacknife estimate of variance, it is shown that the limit could be normal, a weighted χ 2 distribution, a stable distribution, or a mixture of normal and stable distribution. Applications to the power of the studentized U- and L- tests are also discussed.展开更多
