In this paper we present generalisations of Paley-Wiener type theorems to Mellin and (Laplace-)Fourier transforms of rapidly decreasing smooth functions with positive support and log-polyhomogeneous asymptotic expansion at zero. This…
We study the regularity of smooth functions whose derivatives are dominated by sequences of the form $M_p^{\tau,\s}=p^{\tau p^{\s}}$, $\tau>0$, $\s\geq1$. We show that such functions can be characterized through the decay properties of…
We prove two-sided inequalities between the integral moduli of smoothness of a function on $\mathbb{R}^d/\mathbb{T}^d$ and the weighted tail-type integrals of its Fourier transform/series. Sharpness of obtained results in particular is…
Let $v:[0,T]\times \R^d \to \R$ be the solution of the parabolic backward equation $ \partial_t v + (1/2) \sum_{i,l} [\sigma \sigma^\perp]_{il} \partial_{x_i \partial_{x_l} v + \sum_{i} b_i \partial_{x_i}v + kv =0$ with terminal condition…
In this note we investigate the partial Fourier series on a product of two compact Lie groups. We give necessary and sufficient conditions for a sequence of partial Fourier coefficients to define a smooth function or a distribution. As…
We consider the $\alpha$-sine transform of the form $T_\alpha f(y)=\int_0^\infty\vert\sin(xy)\vert^\alpha f(x)dx$ for $\alpha>-1$, where $f$ is an integrable function on $\mathbb{R}_+$. First, the inversion of this transform for $\alpha>1$…
We prove Banach, Newton-Raphson and Brouwer fixed point theorems in the framework of generalized smooth functions, a minimal extension of Colombeau's theory (and hence of classical distribution theory) which makes it possible to model…
We study a problem of estimation of smooth functionals of parameter $\theta $ of Gaussian shift model $$ X=\theta +\xi,\ \theta \in E, $$ where $E$ is a separable Banach space and $X$ is an observation of unknown vector $\theta$ in Gaussian…
We study finite-sample inference for the trade-off function of two unknown probability distributions, the function that traces the optimal type I/type II error frontier in binary testing. Given samples from distributions $P$ and $Q$, we…
We classify all functions which, when applied term by term, leave invariant the sequences of moments of positive measures on the real line. Rather unexpectedly, these functions are built of absolutely monotonic components, or reflections of…
We study the fixed point for a non-linear transformation in the set of Hausdorff moment sequences, defined by the formula: $T((a_n))_n=1/(a_0+... +a_n)$. We determine the corresponding measure $\mu$, which has an increasing and convex…
Let $f(x)$, $x\in\mathbb R^2$, be a piecewise smooth function with a jump discontinuity across a smooth surface $\mathcal S$. Let $f_{\Lambda\epsilon}$ denote the Lambda tomography (LT) reconstruction of $f$ from its discrete Radon data…
We prove sharp stability estimates for the Truncated Laplace Transform and Truncated Fourier Transform. The argument combines an approach recently introduced by Alaifari, Pierce and the second author for the truncated Hilbert transform with…
A recent result characterizes the fully order reversing operators acting on the class of lower semicontinuous proper convex functions in a real Banach space as certain linear deformations of the Legendre-Fenchel transform. Motivated by the…
We find an expression for the joint Laplace transform of the law of $(T_{[x,+\infty[},X_{T_{[x,+\infty[}})$ for a L\'evy process $X$, where $T_{[x,+\infty[}$ is the first hitting time of $[x,+\infty[$ by $X$. When $X$ is an $\alpha$-stable…
We consider real-valued random variables R satisfying the distributional equation R \eqdist \sum_{k=1}^{N}T_k R_k + Q, where R_1,R_2,... are iid copies of R and independent of T=(Q, (T_k)_{k \ge 1}). N is the number of nonzero weights T_k…
We consider the value function of a stochastic optimal control of degenerate diffusion processes in a domain $D$. We study the smoothness of the value function, under the assumption of the non-degeneracy of the diffusion term along the…
Let $\xi$ be a L\'{e}vy process and $I_\xi(t):=\int_{0}^te^{-\xi_s}\mathrm{d} s$, $t\geq 0,$ be the exponential functional of L\'{e}vy processes on deterministic horizon. Given that $\lim_{t\to \infty}\xi_t=-\infty$ we evaluate for general…
We call a point process $Z$ on $\mathbb R$ \emph{exp-1-stable} if for every $\alpha,\beta\in\mathbb R$ with $e^\alpha+e^\beta=1$, $Z$ is equal in law to $T_\alpha Z+T_\beta Z'$, where $Z'$ is an independent copy of $Z$ and $T_x$ is the…
We provide conditions for the existence of measurable solutions to the equation $\xi(T\omega)=f(\omega,\xi(\omega))$, where $T:\Omega \rightarrow\Omega$ is an automorphism of the probability space $\Omega$ and $f(\omega,\cdot)$ is a…
