Abstract
Let K be respectively the parabolic biangle and the triangle in \({\mathbb{R}}^2\) and \(\left( {\alpha \left( p \right)} \right)_{p \in {\mathbb{N}}} \) be a sequence in [0, +∞[ such that limp→∞ α(p)=+∞. According to Koornwinder and Schwartz,(7) for each \(p \in {\mathbb{N}}\) there exist a convolution structure (*α(p)) such that (K, *α(p)) is a commutative hypergroup. Consider now a random walk \(\left( {X_j^{{\alpha }\left( p \right)} } \right)_{j \in {\mathbb{N}}}\) on (K, *α(p)), assume that this random walk is stopped after j(p) steps. Then under certain conditions given below we prove that the random variables \(\left( {X_j^{{\alpha }\left( p \right)} } \right)_{p \in {\mathbb{N}}}\) on K admit a selective limit theorems. The proofs depend on limit relations between the characters of these hypergroups and Laguerre polynomials that we give in this work.
