The subject of this paper is to prove a functional weak invariance principle for the local time of a process generated by a Gibbs-Markov map. More precisely, let $\left(X,\mathcal{B},m,T,\alpha\right)$ is a mixing, probability preserving…

Let $(X, d)$ be a compact metric space, and let $Q \subset X$ be countable. Given functions $R: Q \to \mathbb{R}^+$ and $\phi: \mathbb{R}^+ \to \mathbb{R}^+$, we consider the set $E(Q, R, \phi)$ of points $x \in X$ that ``hit'' the…

Let $\{X_{i}, i\in J\}$ be a family of locally dependent non-negative integer-valued random variables with finite expectations and variances. We consider the sum $W=\sum_{i\in J}X_i$ and use Stein's method to establish general upper error…

In this paper, we consider distributed algorithms for solving the empirical risk minimization problem under the master/worker communication model. We develop a distributed asynchronous quasi-Newton algorithm that can achieve superlinear…

We prove normal approximation bounds for statistics of randomly weighted (simplicial) complexes. In particular, we consider the complete $d$-dimensional complex on $n$ vertices with $d$-simplices equipped with i.i.d. weights. Our normal…

We propose a new way to condition random trees, that is, condition random trees to have large maximal out-degree. Under this new conditioning, we show that conditioned critical Galton-Watson trees converge locally to size-biased trees with…

We consider population-size-dependent branching processes (PSDBPs) which eventually become extinct with probability one. For these processes, we derive maximum likelihood estimators for the mean number of offspring born to individuals when…

A finite dimensional abstract approximation and convergence theory is developed for estimation of the distribution of random parameters in infinite dimensional discrete time linear systems with dynamics described by regularly dissipative…

We consider a discrete-time process adapted to some filtration which lives on a (typically countable) subset of $\mathbb{R}^d$, $d\geq 2$. For this process, we assume that it has uniformly bounded jumps, is uniformly elliptic (can advance…

In this paper, we study the diffusion approximation for singularly perturbed stochastic reaction-diffusion equation with a fast oscillating term. The asymptotic limit for the original system is obtained, where an extra Gaussian term…

We consider the extreme value theory of a hyperbolic toral automorphism $T: \mathbb{T}^2 \to \mathbb{T}^2$ showing that if a H\"older observation $\phi$ which is a function of a Euclidean-type distance to a non-periodic point $\zeta$ is…

We establish the equivalence of the analytic and probabilistic notions of subharmonicity in the framework of general symmetric Hunt processes on locally compact separable metric spaces, extending an earlier work of the first named author on…

This work addresses potential theoretic questions for the standard nearest neighbor random walk on the hypercube $\{-1,+1\}^N$. For a large class of subsets $A\subset\{-1,+1\}^N$ we give precise estimates for the harmonic measure of $A$,…

We consider the Gaussian approximation for functionals of a Poisson process that are expressible as sums of region-stabilizing (determined by the points of the process within some specified regions) score functions and provide a bound on…

For a finite dimensional spin-glass model we prove local order at low temperatures for both local observables and for products of observables at arbitrary mutual distance. When the Hamiltonian includes the Edwards-Anderson interaction we…

We study extremal statistics and return intervals in stationary long-range correlated sequences for which the underlying probability density function is bounded and uniform. The extremal statistics we consider e.g., maximum relative to…

This paper develops a new direct approach to approximating suprema of general empirical processes by a sequence of suprema of Gaussian processes, without taking the route of approximating whole empirical processes in the sup-norm. We prove…

We describe a procedure based on the iteration of an initial function by an appropriated operator, acting on continuous functions, in order to get a fixed point. This fixed point will be a calibrated subaction for the doubling map on the…

We derive a new asymptotic expansion for the global excess risk of a local-$k$-nearest neighbour classifier, where the choice of $k$ may depend upon the test point. This expansion elucidates conditions under which the dominant contribution…

The framework of Baikov-Gazizov-Ibragimov approximate symmetries has proven useful for many examples where a small perturbation of an ordinary differential equation (ODE) destroys its local symmetry group. For the perturbed model, some of…
