In this paper, we give a short Bayesian proof of Talagrand's celebrated majorizing-measure theorem (MMT). While the upper-bound direction of MMT follows relatively directly from standard arguments, the lower-bound direction is widely…

We study Bernoulli percolation on $\mathbb Z^d$ in dimensions ${d>6}$. We prove that a classical consequence of the van den Berg-Kesten inequality, often referred to as the Simon-Lieb inequality in the context of the Ising model, admits a…

We perform a mathematical and statistical analysis of the Wasserstein least squares problem, a regression method for vector-valued covariates and distribution-valued responses. Our proposal contrasts with other distributional regression…

We study Lusin-measurable functions with values in locally convex spaces. In particular, the behavior of pointwise limits of sequences of Lusin-measurable functions and exhibit pathological phenomena arising in the nonmetrizable setting.…

The scope of this text is to study a process that induces another proof of the Spectral Embedding Theorem: that any densely defined symmetric operator can be extended by a multiplication operator through an embedding of the Hilbert space…

The renewal contact process is a non-Markovian variant of the classical contact process in which recoveries are governed by independent renewal processes with interarrival distribution $\mu$. We establish new sufficient conditions ensuring…

A central question in high-dimensional statistics is to understand statistical--computational gaps: regimes in which recovering a hidden signal is information-theoretically possible but conjectured to be computationally intractable. The…

We study estimation in the low signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) regime for a broad class of Gaussian latent-variable models, including Gaussian mixtures and orbit recovery problems. We show that, in this regime, the generalized method-of-moments…

We derive closed form expressions for the lower expectations that correspond to total variation distance and chi-squared divergence balls around a probability mass function over a finite set.

Hjort and Glad (1995) present a method for semiparametric density estimation. Relative to the ordinary kernel density estimator, this technique performs much better when a parametric vehicle distribution fits the data, and otherwise…

We investigate integration by parts (IBP) formulae for stochastic Volterra equations and we establish the smoothing effect of the expectation. Due to the inherent path-dependent dynamics of this class of processes, standard…

Importance sampling (IS) consists in biasing samples from a distribution $f$ towards another distribution $g$. Concretely, given samples $X_i$ from $f$, the IS measure is $$\hat{g}_n = \frac{1}{Z_n}\sum_{i=1}^n \frac{g(X_i)}{f(X_i)}…

We review known linear and matrix generalizations of Hall's classic ``marriage theorem'' and K\H{o}nig's theorem on partial matchings in bipartite graphs, and relate them to linear and matrix generalizations of Dilworth's theorem about…

Using the Baxter-Kelland-Wu coupling and the convergence of the height function of the six-vertex model to the Gaussian Free Field, we extract critical exponents for the planar critical random-cluster model at $q=4$, and the planar…

We use the machinery of a conditional probability space (R\'enyi, 1955) to obtain an Agreement Theorem (Aumann, 1976) under general conditions. A conditional probability space (CPS) is a family of probability measures defined relative to a…

We characterize all lattices $\Lambda \subset \mathbb{R}^2$ and all compactly supported functions $g \in L^2(\mathbb{R})$ for which the Gabor system $\left \{ e^{2\pi i s x} g(x-t) : (t,s) \in \Lambda \right \}$ forms an orthonormal basis…

We consider $N\times N$ matrices $X$ with independent, identically distributed entries, and prove that the sequence of measures $\frac{ | \det (X-z)|^\gamma}{\mathbb{E}[ | \det (X-z)|^\gamma]}$ converge to the Gaussian Multiplicative Chaos…

Motivated by the recent work of Batkam-Tcheka on pointed multiplicative operads, we construct in this paper new chain complex algebras and two distinct bicomplex algebra structures on a free symmetric connected multiplicative differential…

In this work, we introduce a new class of Leibniz algebras, called quasi-Artinian Leibniz algebras, which generalizes the minimal condition on ideals. Furthermore, we provide some characterizations and give conditions under which a…

We prove that the spaces $\ell_p(C(\alpha))$ and $\ell_p(C[0,1])$ have the uniform primary factorisation property whenever $\alpha$ is an ordinal and $1<p\leq\infty$. For the case $p=1$, we establish a general criterion ensuring that…
