This book on asymptotic and methodological statistics celebrates the distinguished career of Marie Hušková and her foundational work in modern mathematical statistics. It brings together original research contributions from renowned statisticians, focusing on asymptotic theory, methodological innovations, and applications in statistical inference. The volume highlights cutting-edge developments in change-point analysis, goodness-of-fit testing and nonparametric statistics, reflecting the extensive impact Marie Hušková has had in shaping the direction of contemporary statistical science. It serves both as a tribute to her career and as a valuable resource for researchers and PhD students.

This volume collects authoritative contributions on analytical methods and mathematical statistics. The methods presented include resampling techniques; the minimization of divergence; estimation theory and regression, eventually under shape or other constraints or long memory; and iterative approximations when the optimal solution is difficult to achieve. It also investigates probability distributions with respect to their stability, heavy-tailness, Fisher information and other aspects, both asymptotically and non-asymptotically. The book not only presents the latest mathematical and statistical methods and their extensions, but also offers solutions to real-world problems including option pricing. The selected, peer-reviewed contributions were originally presented at the workshop on Analytical Methods in Statistics, AMISTAT 2015, held in Prague, Czech Republic, November 10-13, 2015.
