Le Cam was the major figure during the period 1950 - 1990 in the development of abstract general asymptotic theory in mathematical statistics.

However, the asymptotic theory of limiting distributions is often invoked for work with finite samples.

Koiter is primarily known for his asymptotic theory of initial post-buckling stability.

For large numbers of animals per group, n, the statistical power can be approximated using asymptotic theory.

Bayes procedures with respect to more general prior distributions have played a very important role in the development of statistics, including its asymptotic theory.

In such cases, the asymptotic theory clearly does not give a practically useful approximation.

There are a hierarchy of cases parallel to asymptotic theory of U-statistics.

According to this is one of the most important papers in the asymptotic theory of the porous medium equation.

His main fields were probability, mathematical statistics, and asymptotic theory.

The concept was originally introduced by as part of his contribution to the development of abstract general asymptotic theory in mathematical statistics.
