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…

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…

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 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 prove undecidability for every positive relevant logic extending the system axiomatized by hypothetical syllogism, prefixing, and suffixing and contained in the logic of the semilattice frame $(P_{\mathrm{fin}}(\mathbb{N}), \cup,…

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…

We introduce the \emph{Topological Stability Index} (TSI), a variance-based scalar measure for persistence barcodes that quantifies the dispersion of persistence lifetimes. Unlike persistent entropy, which depends only on normalized…

In this note, we provide a family of $2\times 2$ tetrablock contractions that have tetrablock isometric dilation, but the corresponding fundamental operators do not commute. This answers a question raised by Bhattacharyya [Indiana Univ.…

We introduce an Indian-buffet-type model for multi-factorial innovation in which each arriving agent may exhibit both previously observed and new features. The number of new features follows a power-law behavior, while the probability of…

Let $\mathfrak{g}$ be a symmetrizable Kac-Moody Lie algebra and let $\rho$ denote the sum of the fundamental weights. The irreducible highest weight representations $V(m\rho)$ occupy a distinguished position in representation theory due to…

This paper studies frames in Hilbert spaces generated by the orbits of (in)-finitely many vectors under a single operator, presenting new results on multiplication operators and operators composed of Jordan blocks, which generalizes…

Martingales, Markov processes and Laws of Large Numbers have been well studied in the Riesz space (vector lattice) setting. There has, however, been no attention given in the Riesz space setting to Laws of Small Numbers or to the so called…

For a conditional expectation operator $T$ on a Dedekind complete Riesz space, we give representations of the $T$-strong duals of $L^1(T)$ and $L^\infty(T)$. The representation for the $T$-strong dual of $L^1(T)$ follows from the known…

This paper introduces a Laws of Form version of the Quaternions. We call this the Q-Calculus, a 16-valued extension of Laws of Form (LoF) which is closely related to the BF Calculus (where we have a single square root of the mark) and the…

We develop a natural Bayesian multiplicity-correcting prior distribution within the probabilistic forward stepwise representation of model space priors for regression problems. The proposed prior, obtained from making an analogy to the Holm…

In our previous papers we repeatedly emphasized the special role in Quaternionic Analysis of the conformal group SU(2,2) and other real forms of its complexification SL(4,C). In particular, the natural product map of the left and right…

We derive a scale-free bound on the density of the maximum of a centered Gaussian vector. The basic bound is non-uniform, depends logarithmically on the dimension, and allows any covariance matrix. When the largest marginal variance is…
