In this article, the complete convergence for sequences of asymptotically almost negatively associated (AANA) random variables is studied. As applications, the Baum–Katz-type theorem, Hsu–Robbins-type theorem and Marcinkiewicz–Zygmund strong law of large numbers for sequences of AANA random variables are obtained.

We consider a finite time horizon optimal stopping of a regime-switching Lévy process. We prove that the value function of the optimal stopping problem can be characterized as the unique viscosity solution of the associated Hamilton–Jacobi–Bellman variational inequalities.

This paper introduces stationary and multi-self-similar random fields which account for stochastic volatility and have type G marginal law. The stationary random fields are constructed using volatility modulated mixed moving average (MA) fields and their probabilistic properties are discussed. Also, two methods for parameterizing the weight functions in the MA representation are presented: one method is based on Fourier techniques and aims at reproducing a given correlation structure, the other method is based on ideas from stochastic partial differential equations. Moreover, using a generalized Lamperti transform we construct volatility modulated multi-self-similar random fields which have type G distribution.

Suppose that the moving average process is based on a doubly infinite sequence of identically distributed and dependent random variables with zero mean and finite variance and that the sequence of coefficients is absolutely summable. Under suitable conditions of dependence, we show the precise rates in the law of logarithm of a kind of weighted infinite series for the first moment of the partial sums of the moving average process. This generalizes the common law of logarithm with the square root of logarithm to that with any positive power of logarithm. Moreover, we provide another law of logarithm as a supplement.

In this note, the asymptotic relation between the maximum of a continuous strongly dependent stationary Gaussian process and the maximum of this process sampled at discrete time points is studied. It is shown that these two extreme values are asymptotically totally dependent no matter what the grid of the discrete time points is.

In this paper, combining stochastic processes with shift-invariant spaces, we introduce shift-invariant stochastic processes. It is a general case of the classical band-limited stochastic processes and a kind of non-band-limited stochastic processes. Two sampling theorems are obtained for the shift-invariant stochastic processes. The results for band-limited stochastic processes and shift-invariant spaces are generalized by our new results.

In this paper we study a class of distributions related to the r.v. , for different distributions of . The problem is related to the hitting point of a randomly oriented ray and generalizes the Cauchy distribution in different directions. We show that the distribution of solves the Laplace equation of order , possesses even moments of order , and has bimodal structure when is uniform. We study also a number of distributional properties of functionals of , including those related to the arcsine law. Finally we study the same problem in the Poincaré half-plane and this leads to the hyperbolic distribution of which the main properties are explored. In particular we study the distribution of hyperbolic functions of , the law of sums of i.i.d. r.v.'s and the distribution of the area of random hyperbolic right triangles.
