Asymptotic normality for the counting process of weak records and δ-records in discrete models

Abstract: Let {Xn, n ≥ 1} be a sequence of independent and identically distributed random variables, taking non-negative integer values, and call Xn a δ-record if Xn > max{X1, . . . , Xn−1} + δ, where δ is an integer constant. We use martingale arguments to show that the counting process of δ-records among the first n observations, suitably centered and scaled, is asymptotically normally distributed for δ = 0. In particular, taking δ = −1 we obtain a central limit theorem for the number of weak records. This is an elect… Show more

“…Instead of describing their rather complex derivations, we will now demonstrate an elementary approach that illustrates the asymptotic behavior of δ-records in time series of RV's from the three classes of EVS in the regime of small δ ≪ 1. Our findings are in good agreement with the results of Gouet et al [39].…”

“…The concept of δ-records (or near-records) was discussed by various authors, for instance by Gouet et al [38,39,58] or Balakrishnan et al [59,60]. In particular Gouet et al made important progress on this problem.…”
