AbstractIn this paper, we consider the ratios of order statistics in samples from uniform distribution and establish strong and weak laws for these ratios.

Consider independent and identically distributed random variables{Xnk,  1≤k≤m, n≥1}from the Pareto distribution. We randomly select two adjacent order statistics from each row,Xn(i)andXn(i+1), where1≤i≤m−1. Then, we test to see whether or not strong and weak laws of large numbers with nonzero limits for weighted sums of the random variablesXn(i+1)/Xn(i)exist, where we place a prior distribution on the selection of each of these possible pairs of order statistics.

LetXn1≦Xn2≦ ··· ≦Xnndenote the order statistics from a sample ofnindependent, identically distributed random variables, and suppose that the variablesXnn, Xn,n–1, ···, when suitably normalized, have a non-trivial limiting joint distributionξ1,ξ2, ···, asn → ∞. It is well known that the limiting distribution must be one of just three types. We provide a canonical representation of the stochastic process {ξn,n≧ 1} in terms of exponential variables, and use this representation to obtain limit theorems forξnasn →∞.

AbstractIn this paper we introduce the multivariate Brownian semistationary (BSS) process and study the joint asymptotic behaviour of its realised covariation using in-fill asymptotics. First, we present a central limit theorem for general multivariate Gaussian processes with stationary increments, which are not necessarily semimartingales. Then, we show weak laws of large numbers, central limit theorems, and feasible results for BSS processes. An explicit example based on the so-called gamma kernels is also provided.

If X = (X 1, · ··, Xn ) has uniform distribution on the sphere or ball in ℝ with radius a, then the joint distribution of , ···, k, converges in total variation to the standard normal distribution on ℝ. Similar results hold for the inner products of independent n-vectors. Applications to geometric probability are given.
