The limit process of the difference between the empirical distribution function and its concave majorant

open access: yes
We consider the process -Fn, being the difference between the empirical distribution function Fn and its least concave majorant , corresponding to a sample from a decreasing density.

A linearization method in oscillation theory of half-linear second-order differential equations

open access: yesJournal of Inequalities and Applications, 2005
Using inequalities for a certain function appearing in the half-linear version of Picone's identity, we show that oscillatory properties of the half-linear second-order differential equation , , can be investigated via oscillatory properties of a ...

Estimates on the Derivative of a Polynomial with a Curved Majorant Using Convex Techniques

open access: yes, 2010
A mapping phi : [-1, 1] -> [0, infinity) is a curved majorant for a polynomial p in one real variable if vertical bar p(x)vertical bar

The distribution of the maximal difference between a Brownian bridge and its concave majorant

open access: yes, 2011
We provide a representation of the maximal difference between a standard Brownian bridge and its concave majorant on the unit interval, from which we deduce expressions for the distribution and density functions and moments of this difference.

Concave Majorants of Random Walks and Related Poisson Processes

open access: yes, 2011
We offer a unified approach to the theory of concave majorants of random walks, by providing a path transformation for a walk of finite length that leaves the law of the walk unchanged whilst providing complete information about the concave majorant ...
