چکیده
We establish the asymptotic normality of the number of upper records in a sequence of iid geometric random variables. Large deviations and local limit theorems as well as approximation theorems for the number of lower records are also derived.

Characterizations Using Entropies of Records in a Geometric Random Record Model
Suppose that a geometrically distributed number of observations are available from an absolutely continuous distribution function $F$, within this set of observations denote the random number of records by $M$. This is called geometric random record model. In this paper, characterizations of $F$ are provided in terms of the subsequences entropies of records conditional on events ${M geq n}$ or ...
متن کاملAlternating Runs of Geometrically Distributed Random Variables
Run statistics about a sequence of independent geometrically distributed random variables has attracted some attention recently in many areas such as applied probability, reliability, statistical process control, and computer science. In this paper, we first study the mean and variance of the number of alternating runs in a sequence of independent geometrically distributed random variables. The...
متن کاملBounds for CDFs of Order Statistics Arising from INID Random Variables
In recent decades, studying order statistics arising from independent and not necessary identically distributed (INID) random variables has been a main concern for researchers. A cumulative distribution function (CDF) of these random variables (Fi:n) is a complex manipulating, long time consuming and a software-intensive tool that takes more and more times. Therefore, obtaining approximations a...
متن کاملSums of a Random Number of Random Variables and Their Approximations with Ν-accompanying Infinitely Divisible Laws
In this paper a general theory of a random number of random variables is constructed. A description of all random variables ν admitting an analog of the Gaussian distribution under ν-summation, that is, the summation of a random number ν of random terms, is given. The ν-infinitely divisible distributions are described for these ν-summations and finite estimates of the approximation of ν-sum dis...
متن کاملOn random polynomials over finite fields
We consider random monic polynomials of degree n over a finite field of q elements, chosen with all q possibilities equally likely, factored into monic irreducible factors. More generally, relaxing the restriction that q be a prime power, we consider that multiset construction in which the total number of possibilities of weight n is q. We establish various approximations for the joint distribu...
