Abstract

Objectives:

To study the asymptotic theory of the randomly wieghted partial sum process of powers of k-spacings from the uniform distribution.

Methods:

Earlier results on the distribution of the uniform incremental randomly weighted sums.

Methods:

Based on theorems on weak and strong approximations of partial sum processes.

Results and conculsions:

Our main contribution is to prove the weak convergence of weighted sum of powers of uniform spacings.

Keywords: Uniform spacings, Weak convergence, Gaussian process, Incremental asymptotic convergence, Random Sample, k spacings.
