Laboratory of Stochastic Analysis and its Applications invites you to the mini-course «Distributions and Moments: Determinacy, Limit Theorems, Inference» which will be lectured by professor Jordan Stoyanov (Honorary Professor at Bulgarian Academy of Sciences, Sofia, Bulgaria; Visiting Professor at Shandong University, China)

Time: November 23 – November 27, 6-9pm

Schedule of the mini-course:

November 23: distributions, moments, bounds, problem of moments, determinacy (M-det), indeterminacy (M-indet), normal distribution, Chebyshev-Markov CLT, Cramer’s condition  (m.g.f.),  lognormal distribution.

November 24: shape of distributions, empirical moments, general picture, Stieltjes classes for M-indet distributions, index of dissimilarity, distributional equations, characterizations via moments.

November 25: checkable conditions, Carleman criterion for determinacy, Krein criterion for indeterminacy,   Hardy’s condition, rate of growth of the moments, Pedersen’s condition, functional transformations of random data (Box-Cox), converse conditions, Lin’s condition.

November 26: Frechet–Shohat limit theorem via convergence of the moments, limit theorem via cumulants (semi-invariants), multivariate distributions, random sums of random variables, random products.

November 27: inference problems,  identifiability of stochastic models, moments in stochastic financial models and actuarial sciences, moments for option pricing, moment properties of stochastic processes, challenging open questions, feedback from participants.
