Let F be a probability measure on the real line and G = Σ C(k)Fk∗ the probability measure subordinate to F with subordinator C restricted to the nonnegative integers. Let V(x) vary regularly of order p for x→ ∞ and either (1) V(x) F[x, ∞)→ α ≧ 0 or (2) V(x) C[x, ∞)→ γ ≧ 0. If ρ > 1 and F(–∞, 0) = 0, necessary and sufficient in order that V(x) G[x, ∞)→b, is that both (1) and (2) hold for suitable α and γ. For 0 ≦ ρ ≦ 1 the conditions are of different type. For two-sided F a different situation arises and only sufficient conditions are found. An application to renewal moments of negative order is given.

AbstractOn analogy with functions if Lebesuge class Lα on the real line the author considers those multiplicative arthmetic functions which are bounded in mean α>1. Necessary and sufficient conditions are obtained in order that they should have a mean-value, zero or non-zero. An application is made to Ramanujan's τ-function.

AbstractContinuous maps from the real line to itself give, in a natural way, a partial ordering of permutations. This ordering restricted to cycles is studied.Necessary and sufficient conditions are given for a cycle to have an immediate predecessor. When a cycle has an immediate predecessor it is unique; it is shown how to construct it. Every cycle has immediate successors; it is shown how to construct them.

We give necessary and sufficient conditions for uniform exponential dichotomy of evolution families in terms of the admissibility of the pair(Lp(ℝ,X),Lq(ℝ,X)). We show that the admissibility of the pair(Lp(ℝ,X),Lq(ℝ,X))is equivalent to the uniform exponential dichotomy of an evolution family if and only ifp≥q. As applications we obtain characterizations for uniform exponential dichotomy of semigroups.

AbstractIn this paper, we give necessary and sufficient conditions for a homogeneous cone Ω to be symmetric in two ways. One is by using the multiplier matrix of Ω, and the other is in terms of the basic relative invariants of Ω. In the latter approach, we need to show that the real parts of certain meromorphic rational functions obtained by the basic relative invariants are always positive on the tube domains over Ω. This is a generalization of a result of Ishi and Nomura [Math. Z. 259 (2008), 604–674].

Any Borel probability measure supported on a Cantor set included in [Formula: see text] and of zero Lebesgue measure on the real line possesses a discrete inverse measure. We study the validity of the multifractal formalism for the inverse measures of random weak Gibbs measures. The study requires, in particular, to develop in this context of random dynamics a suitable version of the results known for heterogeneous ubiquity associated with deterministic Gibbs measures.

Daley and Vesilo (1997) introduced long-range count dependence (LRcD) for stationary point processes on the real line as a natural augmentation of the classical long-range dependence of the corresponding interpoint sequence. They studied LRcD for some renewal processes and some output processes of queueing systems, continuing the previous research on such processes of Daley (1968), (1975). Subsequently, Daley (1999) showed that a necessary and sufficient condition for a stationary renewal process to be LRcD is that under its Palm measure the generic lifetime distribution has infinite second moment. We show that point processes dominating, in a sense of stochastic ordering, LRcD point processes are LRcD, and as a corollary we obtain that for arbitrary stationary point processes with finite intensity a sufficient condition for LRcD is that under Palm measure the interpoint distances are positively dependent (associated) with infinite second moment. We give many examples of LRcD point processes, among them exchangeable, cluster, moving average, Wold, semi-Markov processes and some examples of LRcD point processes with finite second Palm moment of interpoint distances. These examples show that, in general, the condition of infiniteness of the second moment is not necessary for LRcD. It is an open question whether the infinite second Palm moment of interpoint distances suffices to make a stationary point process LRcD.

A study is made of the Post-Widder inversion operator to a class of generalized functions in the sense of distributional convergence. Necessary and sufficient conditions are proved for a given function to have the representation as therth operate of the Post-Widder inversion operator of generalized functions. Some representation theorems are also proved. Certain results concerning the testing function space and its dual are established. A fundamental theorem regarding the existence of the real inversion operator (1.6) withr=0is proved in section4. A classical inversion theory for the Post-Widder inversion operator with a few other theorems which are fundamental to the representation theory is also developed in this paper.

Variability orderings indicate that one probability distribution is more spread out or dispersed than another. Here variability orderings are considered that are preserved under conditioning on a common subset. One density f on the real line is said to be less than or equal to another, g, in uniform conditional variability order (UCVO) if the ratio f(x)/g(x) is unimodal with the model yielding a supremum, but f and g are not stochastically ordered. Since the unimodality is preserved under scalar multiplication, the associated conditional densities are ordered either by UCVO or by ordinary stochastic order. If f and g have equal means, then UCVO implies the standard variability ordering determined by the expectation of all convex functions. The UCVO property often can be easily checked by seeing if f(x)/g(x) is log-concave. This is illustrated in a comparison of open and closed queueing network models.

Let μ be a probability measure on the real line ℝ, x a real number and δ(x) the probability atom concentrated at x. Stam made the interesting observation that eitheror else(ii) δ(x)* μn, are mutually singular for all positive integers n.
