Identifying directions where extreme events occur is a major challenge in multivariate extreme value analysis. In this paper, we use the concept of sparse regular variation introduced by Meyer and Wintenberger (2021)} to infer the tail…

An irrational toric variety X is an analytic subset of the simplex associated to a finite configuration of real vectors. The positive torus acts on X by translation, and we consider limits of sequences of these translations. Our main result…

Consider a sequence of cadlag processes $\{X^n\}_n$, and some fixed function $f$. If $f$ is continuous then under several modes of convergence $X^n\to X$ implies corresponding convergence of $f(X^n)\to f(X)$, due to continuous mapping. We…

Let $X_1,...,X_n$ be iid random vectors and $f\ge 0$ be a non-negative function. Let also $k(n) = {\rm Argmax}_{i=1,...,n} f(X_i)$. We are interested in the distribution of $X_{k(n)}$ and their limit theorems. In other words, what is the…

Consider first passage percolation with identical and independent weight distributions and first passage time ${\rm T}$. In this paper, we study the upper tail large deviations $\mathbb{P}({\rm T}(0,nx)>n(\mu+\xi))$, for $\xi>0$ and $x\neq…

The exact expression for the probability density $p_{_N}(x)$ for sums of a finite number $N$ of random independent terms is obtained. It is shown that the very tail of $p_{_N}(x)$ has a Gaussian form if and only if all the random terms are…

Let $\Xi$ be an open and bounded subset of $\bb R^d$, and let $F:\Xi\to\bb R$ be a twice continuously differentiable function. Denote by $\Xi_N$ th discretization of $\Xi$, $\Xi_N = \Xi \cap (N^{-1} \bb Z^d)$, and denote by $X_N(t)$ the…

We present an analytical technique to compute the probability of rare events in which the largest eigenvalue of a random matrix is atypically large (i.e.\ the right tail of its large deviations). The results also transfer to the left tail…

A Markov tree is a random vector indexed by the nodes of a tree whose distribution is determined by the distributions of pairs of neighbouring variables and a list of conditional independence relations. Upon an assumption on the tails of…

A simple trick is illustrated, whereby nonlinear evolution equations can be modified so that they feature a lot - or, in some cases, only -- periodic solutions. Several examples (ODEs and PDEs) are exhibited.

We study the extremes of multivariate regularly varying random fields. The crucial tools in our study are the tail field and the spectral field, notions that extend the tail and spectral processes of Basrak and Segers (2009). The spatial…

We derive exponential bounds for tail of distribution for natural, i.e. under ordinary logarithm, normalized sums of arrays of random variables, not necessarily independent.

For a given random sequence $(C,T_{1},T_{2},\ldots)$ with nonzero $C$ and a.s. finite number of nonzero $T_{k}$, the nonhomogeneous smoothing transform $\mathcal{S}$ maps the law of a real random variable $X$ to the law of $\sum_{k\ge…

Following results of Kemperman and Pinelis, we show that if $X$ and $Y$ are real valued random variables such that $\mathbb{E}\left\vert Y\right\vert<\infty$ and for all non-decreasing convex $\varphi:\mathbb{R}\rightarrow [0,\infty)$,…

Let $X_1,X_2,\ldots$ be a centred sequence of weakly stationary random variables with spectral measure $F$ and partial sums $S_n=X_1+\cdots+X_n$. We show that $\operatorname {var}(S_n)$ is regularly varying of index $\gamma$ at infinity, if…

Singularities of the Radon transform of a piecewise smooth function $f(x)$, $x\in R^n$, $n\geq 2$, are calculated. If the singularities of the Radon transform are known, then the equations of the surfaces of discontinuity of $f(x)$ are…

In this article, the existence of a unique solution in the variational approach of the stochastic evolution equation $$\dX(t) = F(X(t)) \dt + G(X(t)) \dL(t)$$ driven by a cylindrical L\'evy process $L$ is established. The coefficients $F$…
