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 …

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} …
