Dolby's (1976) ultrastructural model with no replications is investigated within the class of the elliptical distributions. General asymptotic results are given for the sample covariance matrix S in the presence of incidental ...

Higher order asymptotic deals with two sorts of closely related things. First, there are questions of approximation. One is concerned with expan- sions or inequalities for a distribution function. Second, there are inferential ...

Markovian algorithms for estimating the global maximum or minimum of real valued functions defined on some domain Omega subset of R-d are presented. Conditions on the search schemes that preserve the asymptotic distribution ...

The purpose of this article is to investigate estimation and hypothesis testing by maximum likelihood and method of moments in functional models within the class of elliptical symmetric distributions. The main results ...

In this paper, functional models with not replications are investigated within the class of the elliptical distributions. Emphasis is placed on the special case of the Student-t distribution. Main results encompasses ...

An asymptotic study of two spectral models which appear in uid{solid vibrations is presented in this paper. These two models are derived under the assumption that the uid is slightly compressible or viscous, respectively. ...
