Strong limits related to the oscillation modulus of the empirical process based on the k-spacing process

Recently, several strong limit theorems for the oscillation moduli of the empirical process have been given in the iid-case. We show that, with very slight differences, those strong results are also obtained for some representation of the reduced empirical process based on the (non-overlapping) k-spacings generated by a sequence of independent random variables (rv's) uniformly distributed on $(0,1)$. This yields weak limits for the mentioned process. Our study includes the case where the step k is unbounded. The results are mainly derived from several properties concerning the increments of gamma functions with parameters k and one.
