4. Markov Chains, Renewal, Branching and Coalescent Processes : Four Topics in Probability Theory
Sammanfattning : This thesis consists of four papers.In paper 1, we prove central limit theorems for Markov chains under (local) contraction conditions. As a corollary we obtain a central limit theorem for Markov chains associated with iterated function systems with contractive maps and place-dependent Dini-continuous probabilities. LÄS MER
