Let ξ (t); t ≧ 0 be a normalized continuous mean square differentiable stationary normal process with covariance function r(t). Further, let and set . We give bounds which are roughly of order Τ –δ for the rate of convergence of the distribution of the maximum and of the number of upcrossings of a high level by ξ (t) in the interval [0, T]. The results assume that r(t) and r′(t) decay polynomially at infinity and that r″ (t) is suitably bounded. For the number of upcrossings it is in addition assumed that r(t) is non-negative.

This study aimed to analyze the intersession reliability of global positioning system (GPS-based) distances and accelerometer-based (acceleration) variables in small-sided soccer games (SSG) with and without the offside rule, as well as compare variables between the tasks. Twenty-four high-level U-17 soccer athletes played 3 versus 3 (plus goalkeepers) SSG in two formats (with and without the offside rule). SSG were performed on eight consecutive weeks (4 weeks for each group), twice a week. The physical demands were recorded using a GPS with an embedded triaxial accelerometer. GPS-based variables (total distance, average speed, and distances covered at different speeds) and accelerometer-based variables (Player Load™, root mean square of the acceleration recorded in each movement axis, and the root mean square of resultant acceleration) were calculated. Results showed that the inclusion of the offside rule reduced the total distance covered (large effect) and the distances covered at moderate speed zones (7–12.9 km/h – moderate effect; 13–17.9 km/h – large effect). In both SSG formats, GPS-based variables presented good to excellent reliability (intraclass correlation coefficients – ICC > 0.62) and accelerometer-based variables presented excellent reliability (ICC values > 0.89). Based on the results of this study, the offside rule decreases the physical demand of 3 versus 3 SSG and the physical demands required in these SSG present high intersession reliability.

Let Gn (x) be the distribution of the nth successive maximum of a random walk on the real line. Under conditions typical for complete exponential convergence, the decay of Gn (x) – limn→∞ Gn (x) is asymptotically equal to H(x) γn n–3/2 as n → ∞where γ < 1 and H(x) a function solely depending on x. For the case of drift to + ∞, G ∞(x) = 0 and the result is new; for drift to – ∞we give a new proof, simplifying and correcting an earlier version in [9].

The Szász and Baskakov approximation operators are given by1.11.2respectively. For continuous functions on [0, ∞) with exponential growth (i.e. ‖ƒ‖A ≡ supx\ƒ(x)e–Ax\ < M) the modulus of continuity is defined by1.3where ƒ ∈ Lip* (∝, A) for some 0 < ∝ ≦ 2 if w2(ƒ, δ, A) ≦ Mδ∝ for all δ < 1. We shall find a necessary and sufficient condition on the rate of convergence of An(ƒ, x) (representing Sn(ƒ, x) or Vn(ƒ, x)) to ƒ(x) for ƒ(x) ∈ Lip* (∝, A). In a recent paper of M. Becker [1] such conditions were found for functions of polynomial growth (where (1 + \x\N)−1 replaced e–Ax in the above). M. Becker explained the difficulties in treating functions of exponential growth.

Let {ξ; t = 1, 2, …} be a stationary normal sequence with zero means, unit variances, and covariances let be independent and standard normal, and write . In this paper we find bounds on which are roughly of the order where ρ is the maximal correlation, ρ =sup {0, r 1 , r 2, …}. It is further shown that, at least for m-dependent sequences, the bounds are of the right order and, in a simple example, the errors are evaluated numerically. Bounds of the same order on the rate of convergence of the point processes of exceedances of one or several levels are obtained using a ‘representation' approach (which seems to be of rather wide applicability). As corollaries we obtain rates of convergence of several functionals of the point processes, including the joint distribution function of the k largest values amongst ξ1, …, ξn.

AbstractLet (Y, Z) denote the solution to a forward-backward stochastic differential equation (FBSDE). If one constructs a random walk $B^n$ from the underlying Brownian motion B by Skorokhod embedding, one can show $L_2$-convergence of the corresponding solutions $(Y^n,Z^n)$ to $(Y, Z).$ We estimate the rate of convergence based on smoothness properties, especially for a terminal condition function in $C^{2,\alpha}$. The proof relies on an approximative representation of $Z^n$ and uses the concept of discretized Malliavin calculus. Moreover, we use growth and smoothness properties of the partial differential equation associated to the FBSDE, as well as of the finite difference equations associated to the approximating stochastic equations. We derive these properties by probabilistic methods.

At a meeting of the Geological Society on January 22 a section at Little Heath, near Berkhamsted, was described and discussed; but both in the papers and in the discussion attention was focussed on the lower part of the section, and the gravel, which is separated by about 6 inches of bull-head from the Chalk, was assigned to the Pliocene and correlated with the Westleton Beds of Prestwich. But the upper beds have an interest of their own, especially for the archæologist who is acquainted with the work of the late Mr. Worthington Smith; and it seems worth while to point out some striking resemblances to deposits in a line running north-east of the site in question. The Little Heath strata referred to are:—

Let Gn (x) be the distribution function of the maximum of the successive partial sums of independent and identically distributed random variables and G(x) its limiting distribution function. Under conditions, typical for complete exponential convergence, the decay of Gn (x) — G(x) is asymptotically equal to c.H(x)n −3/2 γn as n → ∞ where c and γ are known constants and H(x) is a function solely depending on x.
