Closeness of convolutions of probability measures
We derive new explicit bounds for the total variation distance between two convolution products of n ∈ N probability distributions, one of which having identical convolution factors. Approximations by finite signed measures of arbitrary order are considered as well. We are interested in bounds with magic factors, i.e. roughly speaking n also appears in the denominator. Special emphasis is given...
متن کاملWeak Convergence of Probability Measures
This text contains my lecture notes for the graduate course “Weak Convergence” given in September-October 2013 and then in March-May 2015. The course is based on the book Convergence of Probability Measures by Patrick Billingsley, partially covering Chapters 1-3, 5-9, 12-14, 16, as well as appendices. In this text the formula label (∗) operates locally. The visible theorem labels often show the...
متن کاملMonotone and Boolean Convolutions for Non-compactly Supported Probability Measures
Abstract. The equivalence of the characteristic function approach and the probabilistic approach to monotone and boolean convolutions is proven for non-compactly supported probability measures. A probabilistically motivated definition of the multiplicative boolean convolution of probability measures on the positive half-line is proposed. Unlike Bercovici’s multiplicative boolean convolution it ...
متن کاملStationary Probability Measures and Topological Realizations
We establish the generic inexistence of stationary Borel probability measures for aperiodic Borel actions of countable groups on Polish spaces. Using this, we show that every aperiodic continuous action of a countable group on a compact Polish space has an invariant Borel set on which it has no σ-compact realization.
متن کاملTopics in weak convergence of probability measures
The first part of the paper deals with general features of weak star convergence from a topological point of view. We present basic facts about weak and weak star topologies, dual spaces and representations of linear functionals as Radon measures. A special attention is payed to finitely additive measures and some results regarding the Baire sets. We prove that in a wide class of topological sp...
