asymptotic probability

  • 1Asymptotic theory — is the branch of mathematics which studies properties of asymptotic expansions.The most known result of this field is the prime number theorem:Let pi;( x ) be the number of prime numbers that are smaller than or equal to x .The limit:lim {x… …

  • 2Asymptotic distribution — In mathematics and statistics, an asymptotic distribution is a hypothetical distribution that is in a sense the limiting distribution of a sequence of distributions. A sequence of distributions corresponds to a sequence of random variables :Zi… …
