We consider the limit distribution of maxima and point processes, connected with crossings of an increasing level, for a sequence of Gaussian stationary processes. As an application we investigate the limit distribution of the error of approximation of Gaussian stationary periodic processes by random trigonometric polynomials in the uniform metric.

A road traffic model with restricted passing, formulated by Newell (1966), is described by conditional cluster point processes and analytically handled by generating functionals of point processes.The traffic distributions in either space or time are in equilibrium, if the fast cars form a Poisson process with constant intensity combined with Poisson-distributed queues behind the slow cars (Brill (1971)). It is shown that this state of equilibrium is stable, which means that this state will be reached asymptotically for general initial traffic distributions. Furthermore the queues behind the slow cars dissolve asymptotically like independent Poisson processes with diminishing rate, also independent of the process of non-queuing cars. To get these results limit theorems for conditional cluster point processes are formulated.

The Reed–Frost model for the spread of an infection is considered and limit theorems for the total size, T, of the epidemic are proved in the limit when n, the initial number of healthy persons, is large and the probability of an encounter between a healthy and an infected person per time unit, p, is λ/n. It is shown that there is a critical threshold λ = 1 in the following sense, when the initial number of infected persons, m, is finite: If λ ≦ 1, T remains finite and has a limit distribution which can be described. If λ > 1 this is still true with a probability σ m < 1, and with probability 1 – σ m T is close to n(1 – σ) and has an approximately Gaussian distribution around this value. When m → ∞ also, only the Gaussian part of the limit distribution is obtained. A randomized version of the Reed–Frost model is also considered, and this allows the same result to be proved for the Kermack–McKendrick model. It is also shown that the limit theorem can be used to study the number of connected components in a random graph, which can be considered as a crude description of a polymerization process. In this case polymerization takes place when λ > 1 and not when λ ≦ 1.

Abstract Fourier approximation plays a key role in qualitative theory of deterministic and random differential equations. In this paper, we will develop a new approximation tool. For an m m -order differentiable function f f on [ 0 , 1 0,1 ], we will construct an m m -degree algebraic polynomial P m {P}_{m} depending on values of f f and its derivatives at ends of [ 0 , 1 0,1 ] such that the Fourier coefficients of R m = f − P m {R}_{m}=f-{P}_{m} decay fast. Since the partial sum of Fourier series R m {R}_{m} is a trigonometric polynomial, we can reconstruct the function f f well by the combination of a polynomial and a trigonometric polynomial. Moreover, we will extend these results to the case of random processes.
