This paper extends the literature on the theoretical properties of synthetic controls to the case of non-linear generative models, showing that the synthetic control estimator is generally biased in such settings. I derive a lower bound for…
We stabilize a prescribed cycle or an equilibrium of the difference equation using pulsed stochastic control. Our technique, inspired by the Kolmogorov's Law of Large Numbers, activates a stabilizing effect of stochastic perturbation and…
A new Monte-Carlo based uncertainty analysis is introduced to quantitatively determine the predictive ability of QCD sum rules. A comprehensive analysis of ground state rho-meson and nucleon spectral properties is performed. Many of the…
We study the linear Zakharov--Kuznetsov equation with periodic boundary conditions. Employing some tools from the nonharmonic Fourier series we obtain several internal observability theorems. Then we prove various exact controllability and…
This paper studies regularity properties of optimization-based controllers, which are obtained by solving optimization problems where the parameter is the system state and the optimization variable is the input to the system. Under a wide…
Exponential tail bounds for sums play an important role in statistics, but the example of the $t$-statistic shows that the exponential tail decay may be lost when population parameters need to be estimated from the data. However, it turns…
Splitting methods constitute a widely used class of numerical integrators for ordinary and partial differential equations, particularly well suited to problems that can be decomposed into simpler subproblems. High-order splitting schemes…
We investigate the invariance principle for set-indexed partial sums of a stationary field $(X\_{k})\_{k\in\mathbb{Z}^{d}}$ of martingale-difference or independent random variables under standard-normalization or self-normalization…
The synthetic control (SC) method is a popular approach for estimating treatment effects from observational panel data. It rests on a crucial assumption that we can write the treated unit as a linear combination of the untreated units. This…
The forms of the neutral, non-strange pseudoscalar propagator matrix and mixed axial current correlator, $\lngle0|T(A_\mu^3 A_\nu^8)|0\rangle$, are discussed at next-to-leading (one-loop) order in chiral perturbation theory, and the results…
It has been shown, in the case of meson photoproduction, that the power-law falloff of these reactions can be described by lowest order (real) sum rules, at moderate momentum transfer. The phases of these processes, in this regime, are…
The synthetic control method (SCM) is a popular approach for estimating the impact of a treatment on a single unit with panel data. Two challenges arise with higher frequency data (e.g., monthly versus yearly): (1) achieving excellent…
The classical stochastic control problem under partial information can be formulated as a control problem for Zakai equation, whose solution is the unnormalized conditional probability distribution of the state of the system. Zakai equation…
In this talk I consider QCD sum rules for the ground state heavy baryons to leading order in $1/m_Q$ and at next-to-leading order in $\alpha_S$ within the context of Heavy Quark Symmetry. The analysis is done at a fixed scale $\mu=1 GeV$.…
We propose a ground-state ansatz for the Ohmic spin-boson model that improves upon the variational treatment of Silbey and Harris for biased systems in the scaling limit. In particular, it correctly captures the smooth crossover behaviour…
We construct QCD sum rules for nonperturbative studies without assuming the quark-hadron duality for the spectral density at low energy on the hadron side. Instead, both resonance and continuum contributions to the spectral density are…
We call into question a recently proposed idea on how the short-distance behavior of QCD correlation functions constrains hadronic states to become degenerate parity eigenstates as one goes up in the spectrum. In particular, we point out…
