In this paper, we show that central order statistics from strictly stationary and ergodic sequences are strongly consistent estimators of population quantiles provided that the quantiles are unique. We generalize this result to strictly stationary but not necessarily ergodic sequences. We also...

The paper considers the block sampling method for long-range dependent processes. Our theory generalizes earlier ones by Hall et al. (1998) [11] on functionals of Gaussian processes and Nordman and Lahiri (2005) [16] on linear processes. In particular, we allow nonlinear transforms of linear...
