Distribution of the individual coordinates of a uniform random vector on a high-dimensional sphere
Let $X=(X_1,\ldots,X_n)$ be a random vector uniformly distributed on the $n$-dimensional sphere of radius $R > 0$. Intuitively, i think that for large $p$ every coordinate $X_i$ is normally ...

Approximation of a random sum of random variables (infinitely divisible distribution) by a triangular array
We know that a Poisson distribution can be approximated by a binomial distribution. More exactly, let $(X_{jn})_{1\leq j \leq n}$ be a i.i.d. triangular array such that
$$P[X_{jn}= 1 ] = p_n = 1- P[X_{...

If signed measures $\mu_n$ are such that $\mu_n\to\mu$ and $\|\mu_n\|\to c\in(0,\infty)$, does $\exp^*(\mu_n)/\|\exp^*(\mu_n)\|$ necessarily converge?
$\newcommand{\R}{\mathbb R}$Let $M$ denote the set of all finite signed measures on a separable Banach space $B$. For any $\mu\in M$, let
\begin{equation*}
\exp^*(\mu):=\sum_{k=0}^\infty\frac{\mu^{...

Limiting behavior of $k^{th}$ order statistics of n non-i.i.d chi square random variables
This is related to one of my previous questions here.
Let $(Z_1, Z_2, \ldots, Z_n)\sim N(0, \Omega)$, where $\Omega = (1-\mu) I_{n\times n} + \mu \boldsymbol{1}_n\boldsymbol{1}_n^\top $. Here $\...

Understanding the approximation of a random sum of random processes
I want to understand an approximation of a compound Poisson distribution in this paper.
First, let's set the environment. Consider $\mathcal{P}$ the class of distributions of real-valued and strictly ...
