"Cognitve functioning and retirement in Europe"
Seminars in Statistics Bas Kleijn (University of Amsterdam)
Testability and consistency Bayesian consistency theorems come in (at least) three distinct types, e.g. Doob's prior-almost-sure consistency on Polish spaces, Schwartz's Hellinger consistency with KL-priors and the `tailfree' weak consistency of Dirichlet posteriors. In this talk we ask the question how these notions of convergence are related and argue that one characterises them most conveniently…

"Ruin probability for some particular correlated claims, for worsening risks, and risks with infinite mean." Abstract We first give explicit formulas for the infinite time ruin probability for some particular correlated claim amounts or inter-arrival times. We then investigate asymptotics of ruin probabilities when claim distribution is worsening over time, due to phenomena like sectorial inflation…
