Non standard functional limit laws for the increments of the compound empirical distribution function

preprint2012arXivOpen access

Abstract

Let (Yi,Zi)i≥1(Y_i,Z_i)_{i\geq 1} be a sequence of independent, identically distributed (i.i.d.) random vectors taking values in $\RRR^k\times\RRR^d$, for some integers kk and dd. Given $z\in \RRR^d$, we provide a nonstandard functional limit law for the sequence of functional increments of the compound empirical process, namely $$\mathbfΔ_{n,\cc}(h_n,z,\cdot):= \frac{1}{nh_n}\sliin 1_{[0,\cdot)}\poo \frac{Z_i-z}{{h_n}^{1/d}}\pff Y_i.$$ Provided that nhn∼clog⁡nnh_n\sim c\log n as $\nif$, we obtain, under some natural conditions on the conditional exponential moments of Y∣Z=zY\mid Z=z, that $$\mathbfΔ_{n,\cc}(h_n,z,\cdot)\leadsto \Gam\text{almost surely},$$ where ⇝\leadsto denotes the clustering process under the sup norm on $\Idd$. Here, $\Gam$ is a compact set that is related to the large deviations of certain compound Poisson processes.
