A Note on Random Upper Semicontinuous Functions
نویسندگان
چکیده
This note aims at presenting the most general framework for a class U of random upper semicontinuous functions, namely random elements whose sample paths are upper semicontinuous (u.s.c.) functions, defined on some locally compact, Hausdorff and second countable base space, extending Matheron’s framework for random closed sets. It is shown that while the natural embedding process does not provide compactness for U , the Lawson topology does.

On a Choquet Theorem for Random Upper Semicontinuous Functions
We extend some topologies on the space of upper semicontinuous functions with compact support to those on that of general upper semicontinuous functions and see that graphical topology and modified L topology are the same. We then define random upper semicontinuous functions using their topological Borel field and finally give a Choquet theorem for random upper semicontinuous functions.
متن کاملA Large Deviation Principle for Random Upper Semicontinuous Functions
We obtain necessary and sufficient conditions in the Large Deviation Principle for random upper semicontinuous functions on a separable Banach space. The main tool is the recent work of Arcones on the LDP for empirical processes.
متن کاملThe Central Limit Theorem problem for t-normed sums of random upper semicontinuous functions
We will present the problem of the Central Limit Theorem for random upper semicontinuous functions. Let us begin by providing the context for that problem. We need to present the space in which we will work, and specify the notions of random element of that space, convergence and the operations used to average random elements. Then we will make some historical remarks on limit theorems in this ...
متن کاملExchanging Iterated Expectations of Random Upper Semicontinuous Functions: an application to decision theory
In this paper we present a procedure to deal with a kind of single-stage decision problems with imprecise utilities. In this type of problems the product measurability of the utility function is not required. So that, the involved expectations are calculated by means of iterated integrals instead of integrals over product spaces. Keywords— Bayesian decision analysis, Iterated expectation, Kudo-...
متن کاملSemicontinuous limits of nets of continuous functions
In this paper we present a topology on the space of real-valued functions defined on a functionally Hausdorff space X that is finer than the topology of pointwise convergence and for which (1) the closure of the set of continuous functions C(X) is the set of upper semicontinuous functions on X , and (2) the pointwise convergence of a net in C(X) to an upper semicontinuous limit automatically en...
