✦ Synopsis
We use U-statistic-type processes to detect a possible change in the distribution of the observations under random censorship. We obtain weighted approximations for the U-statistic-type processes in case of symmetric as well as antisyrnmetric kernels. Several limit theorems are derived under the 'no-change' null hypothesis.

Let ,~-= {Fo} denote a parametric family of lifetime distributions on the real line. For a given sample of possibly censored data from an unknown distribution function F, we consider the Kaplan-Meier process with estimated parameters. It constitutes the basic tool for checking the hypothesis "F C ~-
The data consists of multivariate failure times under right random censorship. By the kernel smoothing technique, convolutions of cumulative multivariate hazard functions suggest estimators of the so-called multivariate hazard functions. We establish strong i.i.d. representations and uniform bounds
This paper considers large sample inference for the regression parameter in a partly linear model for right censored data. We introduce an estimated empirical likelihood for the regression parameter and show that its limiting distribution is a mixture of central chi-squared distributions. A Monte Ca
