The paper deals with a complex polynomial $H$ in two variables having - a generic highest homogeneous part (without multiple zero lines), - nonconstant lower terms. In particular, under these conditions the polynomial $H$ has at least two…
An upper bound on degrees of elements of a minimal generating system for invariants of quivers of dimension (2,...,2) is established over a field of arbitrary characteristic and its precision is estimated. The proof is based on the…
The problem of binary hypothesis testing between two probability measures is considered. New sharp bounds are derived for the best achievable error probability of such tests based on independent and identically distributed observations.…
In the first part of this study, a convex-constrained penalized formulation was studied for a class of constant modulus (CM) problems. In particular, the error bound techniques were shown to play a vital role in providing exact penalization…
We prove the first margin-based generalization bound for voting classifiers, that is asymptotically tight in the tradeoff between the size of the hypothesis set, the margin, the fraction of training points with the given margin, the number…
Monitoring means to observe a system for any changes which may occur over time, using a monitor or measuring device of some sort. In this paper we formulate a problem of monitoring dates of maximal risk of a financial position. Thus, the…
The study of finite approximations of probability measures has a long history. In (Xu and Berger, 2017), the authors focus on constrained finite approximations and, in particular, uniform ones in dimension $d=1$. The present paper gives an…
We study probabilistic iterated function systems (IFS), consisting of a finite or infinite number of average-contracting bi-Lipschitz maps on R^d. If our strong open set condition is also satisfied, we show that both upper and lower bounds…
We provide a lower bound on the probability that a binomial random variable is exceeding its mean. Our proof employs estimates on the mean absolute deviation and the tail conditional expectation of binomial random variables.
We classify invariant probability measures for non-elementary groups of automorphisms, on any compact K\"ahler surface X, under the assumption that the group contains a so-called "parabolic automorphism". We also prove that except in…
Uniform convergence rates are provided for asymptotic representations of sample extremes. These bounds which are universal in the sense that they do not depend on the extreme value index are meant to be extended to arbitrary samples…
We derive lower bounds for the $L^p(\mu)$ norms of monic extremal polynomials with respect to compactly supported probability measures $\mu$. We obtain a sharp universal lower bound for all $0<p<\infty$ and all measures in the Szeg\H{o}…
We propose a new approach to sequential testing which is an adaptive (on-line) extension of the (off-line) framework developed in [10]. It relies upon testing of pairs of hypotheses in the case where each hypothesis states that the vector…
We prove the following isoperimetric type inequality: Given a finite absolutely continuous Borel measure on ${\mathbb R}^n$, halfspaces have maximal measure among all subsets with prescribed barycenter. As a consequence, we make progress…
Coherent lower previsions are general probabilistic models allowing incompletely specified probability distributions. However, for complete description of a coherent lower prevision -- even on finite underlying sample spaces -- an infinite…
We consider impulsive dynamical systems defined on compact metric spaces and their respective impulsive semiflows. We establish sufficient conditions for the existence of probability measures which are invariant by such impulsive semiflows.…
We consider partially hyperbolic diffeomorphisms $f$ with a one-dimensional central direction such that the unstable entropy exceeds the stable entropy. Our main result proves that such maps have a finite number of ergodic measures of…
The purpose of this note is to revisit the results of arXiv:1407.4324 from a slightly different perspective, outlining how, if the integral closures of a finite set of prime ideals abide the expected convexity patterns, then the existence…
We give lower bounds on the case of worst inhomogeneous approximation.
For any standard Borel space $B$, let $\mathcal{P}(B)$ denote the space of Borel probability measures on $B$. In relation to a difficult problem of Aldous in exchangeability theory, and in connection with arithmetic combinatorics, Austin…
