Given a data set (t_i, y_i), i=1,..., n with the t_i in [0,1] non-parametric regression is concerned with the problem of specifying a suitable function f_n:[0,1] -> R such that the data can be reasonably approximated by the points (t_i,…

We study the reduced Beurling spectra $sp_{\Cal {A},V} (F)$ of functions $F \in L^1_{loc} (\jj,X)$ relative to certain function spaces $\Cal{A}\st L^{\infty}(\jj,X)$ and $V\st L^1 (\r)$ and compare them with other spectra including the weak…

The final goal of the present work is to extend the Fourier transform on the Heisenberg group $\H^d,$ to tempered distributions. As in the Euclidean setting, the strategy is to first show that the Fourier transform is an isomorphism on the…

Let $A_t=\sum_{s\le t} F(X_{s-},X_s)$ be a purely discontinuous additive functional of a subordinate Brownian motion $X=(X_t, \mathbb P_x)$. We give a sufficient condition on the non-negative function $F$ that guarantees that finiteness of…

Consider an It\^{o} process $X$ satisfying the stochastic differential equation $dX=a(X)\,dt+b(X)\,dW$ where $a,b$ are smooth and $W$ is a multidimensional Brownian motion. Suppose that $W_n$ has smooth sample paths and that $W_n$ converges…

In this paper we prove pointwise and distributional Fourier transform inversion theorems for functions on the real line that are locally of bounded variation, while in a neighbourhood of infinity are Lebesgue integrable or have polynomial…

We study functional stochastic differential equations with a locally unbounded, functional drift focusing on well-posedness, stability and the strong Feller property. Following the non-functional case, we only consider integrability…

We study solutions to the stochastic fixed point equation $X\stackrel{d}{=}AX+B$ when the coefficients are nonnegative and $B$ is an "inverse exponential decay" (IED) random variable. We provide theorems on the left tail of $X$ which…

Given a smooth function $f$, we develop a general approach to turn Monte Carlo samples with expectation $m$ into an unbiased estimate of $f(m)$. Specifically, we develop estimators that are based on randomly truncating the Taylor series…

Transverse-momentum-dependent parton distribution functions are analyzed in semi-inclusive deep inelastic scattering at low transverse momentum using soft-collinear effective theory. The transverse-momentum-dependent parton distribution…

Let $\mathcal X$ be an infinitesimal deformation of a smooth projective curve $X_0$ over a field. We study stability conditions under such deformations and show that the derived push-forward functor associated with the inclusion $X_0 \to…

We develop a kind of fractional calculus and theory of relaxation and diffusion equations associated with operators in the time variable, of the form $(Du)(t)=\frac{d}{dt}\int\limits_0^tk(t-\tau)u(\tau)\,d\tau -k(t)u(0)$ where $k$ is a…

We prove sharp estimates for Fourier transforms of indicator functions of bounded open sets in ${\mathbb R}^n$ with real analytic boundary, as well as nontrivial lattice point discrepancy results. Both will be derived from estimates on…

We consider the conventional Laplace transform of $f(x)$, denoted by $\mathcal{L}[f(x); p]~\equiv~F(p)=\int_{0}^{\infty} e^{-p x} f(x) dx$ with ${\rm \mathfrak{Re}}(p) > 0$. For $0 < \alpha < 1$ we furnish the closed form expressions for…

Fractional derivatives are a well-studied generalization of integer order derivatives. Naturally, for optimization, it is of interest to understand the convergence properties of gradient descent using fractional derivatives. Convergence…
