The fractional Fisher information and the central limit theorem for stable laws

نویسنده

  • Giuseppe Toscani
چکیده

A new information-theoretic approach to the central limit theorem for stable laws is presented. The main novelty is the concept of relative fractional Fisher information, which shares most of the properties of the classical one, included Blachman-Stam type inequalities. These inequalities relate the fractional Fisher information of the sum of n independent random variables to the information contained in sums over subsets containing n − 1 of the random variables. As a consequence, a simple proof of the monotonicity of the relative fractional Fisher information in central limit theorems for stable law is obtained, together with an explicit decay rate.

Fractional dynamical systems: A fresh view on the local qualitative theorems

The aim of this work is to describe the qualitative behavior of the solution set of a given system of fractional differential equations and limiting behavior of the dynamical system or flow defined by the system of fractional differential equations. In order to achieve this goal, it is first necessary to develop the local theory for fractional nonlinear systems. This is done by the extension of...

The Local Limit Theorem: A Historical Perspective

The local limit theorem describes how the density of a sum of random variables follows the normal curve. However the local limit theorem is often seen as a curiosity of no particular importance when compared with the central limit theorem. Nevertheless the local limit theorem came first and is in fact associated with the foundation of probability theory by Blaise Pascal and Pierre de Fer...

The existence results for a coupled system of nonlinear fractional differential equations with multi-point boundary conditions

In this paper, we study a coupled system of nonlinear fractional differential equations with multi-point boundary condi- tions. The differential operator is taken in the Riemann-Liouville sense. Applying the Schauder fixed-point theorem and the contrac- tion mapping principle, two existence results are obtained for the following system D^{alpha}_{0+}x(t)=fleft(t,y(t),D^{p}_{0+}y(t)right), t in (0,...

Fisher information and the central limit theorem

An Edgeworth-type expansion is established for the relative Fisher information distance to the class of normal distributions of sums of i.i.d. random variables, satisfying moment conditions. The validity of the central limit theorem is studied via properties of the Fisher information along convolutions.
