Interpretation of an asymptotic result in probability

A result in asymptotic theory says the following: Let $Y$ be a real random variable with full support and $E(|Y|)<\infty$. Assume that: $$ (A)\quad \lim_{y\rightarrow \infty} \frac{\Pr(Y\geq y)}{\Pr(Y …

Show convergence result

Consider the following sets: $$ A = \Big\{ x\in X: \Pr\bigg(\lim_{n \to \infty}d\big(p_n, [\ell(x), u(x) ] \big)= 0\bigg)=1 \Big\}, $$ and $$ A_n = \Big\{ x\in X: d\big(p_n, [\ell(x), u(x) ] \big …

Bound the probability that a point belongs to a set

Let $(a_k)_{k \geq 1}$ be random variables taking values on a finite subset $B$. Assume that $$ (1) \quad \Pr\Big (\lim_{n\rightarrow +\infty}d(\frac{1}{n}\sum_{k=1}^n 1_{[a_k = b]}, [v_\ell(b,\theta_ …

Bound the expectation of an average

Let $(a_n)_{n \geq 1}$ be random variables taking values on a finite subset $B$. Assume that $\nu_l(b) \le P[a_n = b\mid a_1,\ldots,a_{n-1}] \le \nu_u(b)$ almost surely for every $n \ge 1$ and $b \in …

A convergence problem

I have a math/stat problem where I need to show the convergence of the average of a sequence of experiments to an interval. The sequence of experiments is not i.i.d., hence the standard law of large n …

Probability measure of trapezoidal area [closed]

Let $Pr_{(X,Y)}$ be a probability distribution of a random vector $(X,Y)$. Let $F$ be the cumulative distribution function of $(X,Y)$. Define $$ \mathcal{A}\equiv \{(x,y): x\leq 2 \text{ and }x-y\leq …

Conditions for existence of a distribution with full support

Consider a $6\times 1$ continuous random vector $$ \eta\equiv (\eta_1,\eta_2,..., \eta_6) $$ satisfying the following property: $$ \underbrace{\begin{pmatrix} \eta_1\\ \eta_2\\ \eta_3 \end{pmatrix}}_{ …

About a mixture

Consider the following mixture model for a univariate density function $$ (1) \quad f(x)=\int_{(m, \sigma^2)\in D} g(x; m, \sigma^2) \mu(d(m, \sigma^2)) $$ where $D$ is a compact subset of $\mathbb{R} …
