Comparison of several topologies for probability measures
Let $X$ be a compact metric space and denote $\mathcal M(X)$ the set of probability measures on $X$. For $\mu\in\mathcal M(X)$ we write $\operatorname{supp} \mu$ for the support of $\mu$. As is well ...

Existence of the limit of periodic measures
Let $T: X \to X$ be a continuous map over a compact metric space. We say that a measure $\mu$ is $T$-invariant if $T_{\ast} \mu= \mu$. We denote by $M(X, T)$ the space of all $T$-invariant Borel ...

Convergence of random operators
I'm a statistician not versed in functional analysis and operator theory. I wish that I might not find a wrong place for my question. All my questions are trivial in the scalar time series case, but ...

Does the almost sure convergence of absolutely continuous r.v.'s imply the weak convergence of the pdf's in $(L^\infty)^*$?
The following question was asked in a comment at Almost sure convergence vs convergence of probability density functions :
Suppose that $(X_n)$ is a sequence of random variables (r.v.'s) converging ...

Is finding the CDF from the Laplace transform well-posed?
In my study of Dynamic Light Scattering, I came across the following inverse problem. Let $F(s):[0,T]\rightarrow[0,T]$ be the Laplace transform of a probability distribution $f(t)$ on the real line ...

Convergence of discretized process when its predictable part converges to infinite variation process
This question seems to be related to Theorem IX.7.28 in J. Jacod and A. Shiryaev's Limit theorems for stochastic processes (2013), and it is very important to prove asymptotic properties of my ...

Convergence of characteristic functions vs. weak convergence of measures and the Ito-Nisio theorem
In section 2.6 of Linde's Probability in Banach Spaces: Stable and Infinitely Divisible Distributions the author is pointing out that in infinite-dimensional Banach spaces the convergence of ...

Weak convergence in measure for negligible sets.
Let $X$ be a Polish space and $(P_n)$ a sequence of Borel probabilities which converges weakly in measure to a Borel probability $P$. By this i mean that for any $f\in C_b(X)$ which is continuous and ...
