Multivalued projections are applied to the study of weighted least squares solutions of linear relations equations (or inclusions) and some of its applications. To this end a matrix representation of multivalued projections with respect to…
Given an imprecise probabilistic model over a continuous space, computing lower/upper expectations is often computationally hard to achieve, even in simple cases. Because expectations are essential in decision making and risk analysis,…
We consider M-estimators and derive supremal-inequalities of exponential-or polynomial type according as a boundedness- or a moment-condition is fulfilled. This enables us to derive rates of r-complete convergence and also to show r-qick…
This paper proposes an algorithm for computing regularized solutions to linear rational expectations models. The algorithm allows for regularization cross-sectionally as well as across frequencies. A variety of numerical examples illustrate…
The martingale expansion provides a refined approximation to the marginal distributions of martingales beyond the normal approximation implied by the martingale central limit theorem. We develop a martingale expansion framework specifically…
We consider the problem of finding a real valued martingale fitting specified marginal distributions. For this to be possible, the marginals must be increasing in the convex order and have constant mean. We show that, under the extra…
This note investigates core properties of martingales, emphasizing the measure-theoretic formulation of conditional expectation, the martingale transform, and the upcrossing lemma. These results lead to the Martingale Convergence Theorem,…

In this note, we define a Gaussian probability distribution over matrices. We prove some useful properties of this distribution, namely, the fact that marginalization, conditioning, and affine transformations preserve the matrix Gaussian…
In this paper, we consider filtration-consistent nonlinear expectations which satisfy a general domination condition (dominated by ${\cal{E}}^{\phi}$). We show that this kind of nonlinear expectations can be represented by $g$-expectations…
In this paper, we consider the problem of representing any polynomial in terms of the ordered Bell and degenerate ordered Bell polynomials, and more generally of the higher-order ordered Bell and higher-order degenerate ordered Bell…
In a preceding article, we have studied a generalization of the problem of finding a martingale on a manifold whose terminal value is known. This article completes the results obtained in the first article by providing uniqueness and…
With this paper, we begin a series of studies of extremal problems for estimating distributions of martingale transforms of bounded martingales. The Bellman functions corresponding to such problems are pointwise minimal diagonally concave…
In this paper we provide Galtchouk-Kunita-Watanabe representation results in the case where there are restrictions on the available information. This allows to prove existence and uniqueness for linear backward stochastic differential…
We survey classical and recent results on exponents of Diophantine approximation. We give only a few proofs and highlight several open problems.
This paper deals with the estimation of one-dimensional Gaussian mixture. Given a set of observations of a K-component Gaussian mixture, we focus on the estimation of the component expectations. The number of components is supposed to be…
In this work, we investigate the question of how knowledge about expectations $\mathbb{E}(f_i(X))$ of a random vector $X$ translate into inequalities for $\mathbb{E}(g(X))$ for given functions $f_i$, $g$ and a random vector $X$ whose…
We develop a general condition on the cost function which is sufficient to imply Monge solution and uniqueness results in the multi-marginal optimal transport problem. This result unifies and generalizes several results in the rather…
The estimation of an f-divergence between two probability distributions based on samples is a fundamental problem in statistics and machine learning. Most works study this problem under very weak assumptions, in which case it is provably…
