Noise is an unavoidable part of most measurements which can hinder a correct interpretation of the data. Uncertainties propagate in the data analysis and can lead to biased results even in basic descriptive statistics such as the central…

We consider the problem of estimating the total probability of all symbols that appear with a given frequency in a string of i.i.d. random variables with unknown distribution. We focus on the regime in which the block length is large yet no…

We prove an explicit combinatorial formula for the expected number of faces of the zero polytope of the homogeneous and isotropic Poisson hyperplane tessellation in $\mathbb R^d$. The expected $f$-vector is expressed through the…
This paper considers the penalized least squares estimator with arbitrary convex penalty. When the observation noise is Gaussian, we show that the prediction error is a subgaussian random variable concentrated around its median. We apply…
Let C = C(l_1, ..., l_n) be the n-dimensional orthogonal cross-polytope whose axes are of length l_1,..., l_n. Subject to the condition \sum l_i^2 = 1, the mean width of C is minimised when l_i = 1/sqrt{n} for every i, and it is maximised…
We study the elliptic double-box integral, which contributes to generic massless QFTs and is the only contribution to a particular 10-point scattering amplitude in N=4 SYM theory. Based on a Feynman parametrization, we express this integral…
In this paper, we consider an extension of Jacobi's symbol, the so called rational $2^k$-th power residue symbol. In Section 3, we prove a novel generalization of Zolotarev's lemma. In Sections 4, 5 and 6, we show that several hard…
We study the error detection problem in $ q $-ary asymmetric channels wherein every input symbol $ x_i $ is mapped to an output symbol $ y_i $ satisfying $ y_i \geq x_i $. A general setting is assumed where the noise vectors are…
This note presents sharp inequalities for deviation probability of a general quadratic form of a random vector \(\xiv\) with finite exponential moments. The obtained deviation bounds are similar to the case of a Gaussian random vector. The…
A procedure to include the uncertainty on the background estimate for upper limit calculations using Poissonian sampling is presented for the case where a Gaussian assumption on the uncertainty can be made. Under that hypothesis an analytic…
The problem 2-Xor-Sat asks for the probability that a random expression, built as a conjunction of clauses $x \oplus y$, is satisfiable. We revisit this classical problem by giving an alternative, explicit expression of this probability. We…
The use of non-orthogonal signals has several benefits over orthogonal signals in multi-coded communications. We provide a novel, theoretical study of non-orthogonal signaling to expand the applicability of these schemes. Motivated by a…
