Large deviations for Dirichlet processes and Poisson-Dirichlet distribution with two parameters
نویسنده
چکیده
Large deviation principles are established for the two-parameter Poisson-Dirichlet distribution and two-parameter Dirichlet process when parameter θ approaches infinity. The motivation for these results is to understand the differences in terms of large deviations between the two-parameter models and their one-parameter counterparts. New insight is obtained about the role of the second parameter α through a comparison with the corresponding results for the one-parameter Poisson-Dirichlet distribution and Dirichlet process.

Large deviations for Dirichlet processes and Poisson-Dirichlet distributions with two parameters
Large deviation principles are established for the two-parameter Poisson-Dirichlet distribution and two-parameter Dirichlet process when parameter θ approaches infinity. The motivation for these results is to understand the differences in terms of large deviations between the twoparameter models and their one-parameter counterparts. New insight is obtained about the role of the second parameter...
متن کاملModerate deviations for Poisson-Dirichlet distribution
Poisson-Dirichlet distribution arises in many different areas. The parameter θ in the distribution is the scaled mutation rate of a population in the context of population genetics. The limiting procedure of θ approaching infinity is practically motivated and has led to new interesting mathematical structures. Results of law of large numbers, fluctuation theorems and large deviations have been ...
متن کاملLarge Deviations Associated with Poisson–dirichlet Distribution and Ewens Sampling Formula
Several results of large deviations are obtained for distributions that are associated with the Poisson–Dirichlet distribution and the Ewens sampling formula when the parameter θ approaches infinity. The motivation for these results comes from a desire of understanding the exact meaning of θ going to infinity. In terms of the law of large numbers and the central limit theorem, the limiting proc...
متن کاملPoisson-Dirichlet Distribution with Small Mutation Rate
The behavior of the Poisson-Dirichlet distribution with small mutation rate is studied through large deviations. The structure of the rate function indicates that the number of alleles is finite at the instant when mutation appears. The large deviation results are then used to study the asymptotic behavior of the homozygosity, and the Poisson-Dirichlet distribution with symmetric selection. The...
متن کاملAsymptotic Results for the Two-parameter Poisson-Dirichlet Distribution
The two-parameter Poisson-Dirichlet distribution is the law of a sequence of decreasing nonnegative random variables with total sum one. It can be constructed from stable and Gamma subordinators with the two-parameters, α and θ, corresponding to the stable component and Gamma component respectively. The moderate deviation principles are established for the two-parameter Poisson-Dirichlet distri...
