## Asymptotic Rényi distances for random fields: properties and applications.(English)Zbl 1274.62062

Summary: The approach introduced in author’s paper, On the concept of asymptotic Rényi distances for random fields. ibid 35, No. 3, 353–366 (1999; Zbl 1274.62061), is further developed and the asymptotic Rényi distances are studied mostly from the point of their monotonicity properties. The results are applied to the problems of statistical inference.
