The standard Hawkes process is constructed from a homogeneous Poisson process and uses the same exciting function for different generations of offspring. We propose an extension of this process by ...

Some general results concerning the asymptotic behavior of the value of the empirical distribution function at a random point (e.g. the sample mean) are given. These results are then used to obtain: ...

The right-hand side is the standard quantum limit, and can always be reached in the asymptotic limit of large νN (ref. 1). Our error estimators Δθ are standard ...
