We present a result on topologically equivalent integral metrics (Rachev, 1991, Muller, 1997) that metrize weak convergence of laws with common marginals. This result is relevant for applications, as shown in a few simple examples.
In the paper, upper bounds for the rate of convergence in laws of large numbers for mixed Poisson random sums are constructed. As a measure of the distance between the limit and pre-limit laws, the Zolotarev $ζ$-metric is used. The obtained results extend the known convergence rate estimates for geometric random sums (in the famous R{é}nyi theorem) to a considerably wider class of random indices with mixed Poisson distributions including, e. g., those with the (generalized) negative binomial distribution.
For a given set of random variables $X_1,\ldots,X_d$ we seek as large a family as possible of random variables $Y_1,\ldots,Y_d$ such that the marginal laws and the laws of the sums match: $Y_i\,{\buildrel d \over =}\,X_i$ and $\sum_iY_i\,{\buildrel d \over =}\,\sum_iX_i$. Under the assumption that $X_1,\ldots,X_d$ are independent and belong to any of the Meixner classes, we give a full characterisation of the random variables $Y_1,\ldots,Y_d$ and propose a practical construction by means of a finite mean square expansion. When $X_1,\ldots,X_d$ are identically distributed but not necessarily in…
We formulate conditions for convergence of Laws of Large Numbers and show its links with of the parts of mathematical analysis such as summation theory, convergence of orthogonal series. We present also applications of the Law of Large Numbers such as Stochastic Approximation, Density and Regression Estimation, Identification.
In this work we investigate the asymptotic behaviour of weighted partial sums of a particular class of random variables related to Oppenheim series expansions. More precisely, we verify convergence in probability as well as almost sure convergence to a strictly positive and finite constant without assuming any dependence structure or the existence of means. Results of this kind are known as exact weak and exact strong laws.
This paper deals with the rate of convergence in 1-Wasserstein distance of the marginal law of a Brownian motion with drift conditioned not to have reached 0 towards the Yaglom limit of the process. In particular it is shown that, for a wide class of initial measures including Dirac measures and probability measures with compact support, the Wasserstein distance decays asymptotically as 1/t. Likewise, this speed of convergence is recovered for the convergence of marginal laws conditioned not to be absorbed up to a horizon time towards the Bessel-$3$ process, when the horizon time tends to infi…
Let $\{X_n\}_n$ be a sequence of freely independent, identically distributed non-commutative random variables. Consider a sequence $\{W_n\}_n$ of the renormalized spectral maximum of random variables $X_1,\cdots, X_n$. It is known that the renormalized spectral maximum $W_n$ converges to the free extreme value distribution under certain conditions on the distribution function. In this paper, we provide a rate of convergence in the Kolmogorov distance between a distribution function of $W_n$ and the free extreme value distribution.
In this paper, we give estimates for the speed of convergence towards a limiting stable law in the recently introduced setting of mod-$ϕ$ convergence. Namely, we define a notion of zone of control, closely related to mod-$ϕ$ convergence, and we prove estimates of Berry-Esseen type under this hypothesis. Applications include: the winding number of a planar Brownian motion; classical approximations of stable laws by compound Poisson laws; examples stemming from determinantal point processes (characteristic polynomials of random matrices and zeroes of random analytic functions); sums of variables…
In this paper, we are concerned with a operator splitting scheme for linear fractional and fractional degenerate stochastic conservation laws driven by multiplicative Levy noise. More specifically, using a variant of classical Kruzkov's doubling of variable approach, we show that the approximate solutions generated by the splitting scheme converges to the unique stochastic entropy solution of the underlying problems.Finally, the convergence analysis is illustrated by several numerical examples.

In the framework of classical probability, we consider the normal product distribution $F_\infty \sim N_1 \times N_2$ where $N_1, N_2$ are two independent standard normal random variable, and in the setting of free probability, $F_\infty \sim \left( S_1 S_2 + S_2 S_1 \right)/\sqrt{2}$ known as {\it tetilla law} \cite{d-n}, where $S_1, S_2$ are freely independent normalized semicircular random variables. We provide novel characterization of $F_\infty$ within the second Wiener (Wigner) chaos. More precisely, we show that for any generic element $F$ in the second Wiener (Wigner) chaos with varian…
We study the stability of entropically regularized optimal transport with respect to the marginals. Lipschitz continuity of the value and Hölder continuity of the optimal coupling in $p$-Wasserstein distance are obtained under general conditions including quadratic costs and unbounded marginals. The results for the value extend to regularization by an arbitrary divergence. As an application, we show convergence of Sinkhorn's algorithm in Wasserstein sense, including for quadratic cost. Two techniques are presented: The first compares an optimal coupling with its so-called shadow, a coupling in…
We investigate yet another approach to understand the limit behaviour of Brownian motion conditioned to stay within a tubular neighbourhood around a closed and connected submanifold of a Riemannian manifold. In this context, we identify a second order generator subject to Dirichlet conditions on the boundary of the tube and study its associated semigroups. After a suitable rescaling and renormalization procedure, we obtain convergence of these semigroups, both in $L^2$ and in Sobolev spaces of arbitrarily large index, to a limit semigroup, as the tube diameter tends to zero. As a byproduct, we…
We study the stability of entropically regularized optimal transport with respect to the marginals. Given marginals converging weakly, we establish a strong convergence for the Schrödinger potentials describing the density of the optimal couplings. When the marginals converge in total variation, the optimal couplings also converge in total variation. This is applied to show that Sinkhorn's algorithm converges in total variation when costs are quadratic and marginals are subgaussian, or more generally for all continuous costs satisfying an integrability condition.
We present a novel analogue for finite exchangeable sequences of the de Finetti, Hewitt and Savage theorem and investigate its implications for multi-marginal optimal transport (MMOT) and Bayesian statistics. If $(Z_1,...,Z_N)$ is a finitely exchangeable sequence of $N$ random variables taking values in some Polish space $X$, we show that the law $μ_k$ of the first $k$ components has a representation of the form $μ_k=\int_{{\mathcal P}_{\frac{1}{N}}(X)} F_{N,k}(λ) \, \mbox{d} α(λ)$ for some probability measure $α$ on the set of $1/N$-quantized probability measures on $X$ and certain universal …
A more general notion of weight called admissible is introduced and then an investigation is carried out on the a.e. convergence of weighted strong laws of large numbers and their applications to weighted one-sided ergodic Hilbert transforms on vector-valued $L_p$-spaces. Furthermore, the obtained results are applied to the a.e. convergence of random modulated weighted ergodic series, which is also new in the classical setting.
This paper exploit the equivalence between the Schrödinger Bridge problem and the entropy penalized optimal transport in order to find a different approach to the duality, in the spirit of optimal transport. This approach results in a priori estimates which are consistent in the limit when the regularization parameter goes to zero. In particular, we find a new proof of the existence of maximizing entropic-potentials and therefore, the existence of a solution of the Schrödinger system. Our method extends also when we have more than two marginals: we can provide an alternative proof of the conve…
We show that the fluctuations of the largest eigenvalue of a real symmetric or complex Hermitian Wigner matrix of size $N$ converge to the Tracy--Widom laws at a rate $O(N^{-1/3+ω})$, as $N$ tends to infinity. For Wigner matrices this improves the previous rate $O(N^{-2/9+ω})$ obtained by Bourgade [5] for generalized Wigner matrices. Our result follows from a Green function comparison theorem, originally introduced by Erdős, Yau and Yin [19] to prove edge universality, on a finer spectral parameter scale with improved error estimates. The proof relies on the continuous Green function flow indu…
We establish a quantitative version of the Tracy--Widom law for the largest eigenvalue of high dimensional sample covariance matrices. To be precise, we show that the fluctuations of the largest eigenvalue of a sample covariance matrix $X^*X$ converge to its Tracy--Widom limit at a rate nearly $N^{-1/3}$, where $X$ is an $M \times N$ random matrix whose entries are independent real or complex random variables, assuming that both $M$ and $N$ tend to infinity at a constant rate. This result improves the previous estimate $N^{-2/9}$ obtained by Wang [73]. Our proof relies on a Green function comp…
We study the central limit theorem in the non-normal domain of attraction to symmetric $α$-stable laws for $0<α\leq2$. We show that for i.i.d. random variables $X_i$, the convergence rate in $L^\infty$ of both the densities and distributions of $\sum_i^n X_i/(n^{1/α}L(n))$ is at best logarithmic if $L$ is a non-trivial slowly varying function. Asymptotic laws for several physical processes have been derived using central limit theorems with $\sqrt{n\log n}$ scaling and Gaussian limiting distributions. Our result implies that such asymptotic laws are accurate only for exponentially large $n$.
In this paper we prove the weak convergence, in a high-temperature phase, of the finite marginals of the Gibbs measure associated to a symmetric spherical spin glass model with correlated couplings towards an explicit asymptotic decoupled measure. We also provide upper bounds for the rate of convergence in terms of the one of the energy per variable. Furthermore, we establish a concentration inequality for bounded functions under a higher temperature condition. These results are exemplified by analysing the asymptotic behaviour of the empirical mean of coordinate-wise functions of samples from…
