Weak laws in geometric probability
Using a coupling argument, we establish a general weak law of large numbers for functionals of binomial point processes in d-dimensional space, with a limit that depends explicitly on the (possibly non-uniform) density of the point process. The general result is applied to the minimal spanning tree, the k-nearest neighbors graph, the Voronoi graph, and the sphere of influence graph. Functionals...
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 کاملWeak Convergence of Laws on R with Common Marginals
In applications, it is often necessary to resort to approximations in the study of the properties of stochastic models. The original process can be replaced by a simpler one whose characteristics are already known or easier to study. This requires some stability of the model, which is usually represented in terms of integral probability metrics (Rachev, 1991, Müller, 1997). Among the many possi...
متن کاملOn weak convergence of entropy solutions to scalar conservation laws
We prove that weak limits of entropy solutions to a one-dimensional scalar conservation law are entropy solutions as well. We consider a scalar conservation law ut + f(u)x = 0, (t, x) ∈ Π = (0, +∞)× R. (1) The flux function f(u) is supposed to be only continuous: f(u) ∈ C(R). Recall the notion of an entropy solution of (1) in the sense of Kruzhkov [6]. Definition 1. A bounded measurable functio...
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...
