The total variation distance is a metric of central importance in statistics and probability theory. However, somewhat surprisingly, questions about computing it algorithmically appear not to have been systematically studied until very…
We consider the problem of learning high dimensional polynomial transformations of Gaussians. Given samples of the form $p(x)$, where $x\sim N(0, \mathrm{Id}_r)$ is hidden and $p: \mathbb{R}^r \to \mathbb{R}^d$ is a function where every…
Variational convexity, together with ist strong counterpart, of extended-real-valued functions has been recently introduced by Rockafellar. In this paper we present second-order characterizations of these properties, i.e., conditions using…
We study pathwise $p$-th variation of continuous paths on a compact interval along a fixed partition sequence. Although the class of continuous paths with finite $p$-th variation is generally not linear, we develop a coefficient-based…
We establish a higher dimensional counterpart of Bourgain's pointwise ergodic theorem along an arbitrary integer-valued polynomial mapping. We achieve this by proving variational estimates $V_r$ on $L^p$ spaces for all $1<p<\infty$ and…
In this note, we announce new regularity results for some locally integrable distributional solutions to Poisson's equation. This includes, for example, the standard solutions obtained by convolution with the fundamental solution. In…
We study the maximum dimension $d=d(n,p)$ for which an Erd\H{o}s-R\'enyi $G(n,p)$ random graph is $d$-rigid. Our main results reveal two different regimes of rigidity in $G(n,p)$ separated at $p_c=C_*\log n/n,~C_*=2/(1-\log 2)$ -- the point…
A Taylor variety consists of all fixed order Taylor polynomials of rational functions, where the number of variables and degrees of numerators and denominators are fixed. In one variable, Taylor varieties are given by rank constraints on…
We study the regularity of densities of distributions that are polynomial images of the standard Gaussian measure on $\mathbb{R}^n$. We assume that the degree of a polynomial is fixed and that each variable enters to a power bounded by…
In this paper we study variations of the first non-trivial eigenvalues of the two-dimensional $p$-Laplace operator, $p>2$, generated by measure preserving quasiconformal mappings $\varphi : \mathbb D\to\Omega$, $\Omega \subset\mathbb R^2$.…
We obtain a remainder estimate for the truncated Taylor expansion for differential equations driven by weakly geometric $\Pi $-rough paths for $\Pi =\left( p_{1},\cdots ,p_{k}\right) $, $p_{i}\geq 1$. When there exists $ p\geq 1$ such that…
After some general remarks about the interrelation between philosophical and statistical thinking, the discussion centres largely on significance tests. These are defined as the calculation of $p$-values rather than as formal procedures for…
We propose a method for constructing p-values for general hypotheses in a high-dimensional linear model. The hypotheses can be local for testing a single regression parameter or they may be more global involving several up to all…
The gauge function, closely related to the atomic norm, measures the complexity of a statistical model, and has found broad applications in machine learning and statistical signal processing. In a high-dimensional learning problem, the…
A variational method is discussed, extending the Gaussian effective potential to higher orders. The single variational parameter is replaced by trial unknown two-point functions, with infinite variational parameters to be optimized by the…
We describe two classes of Gaussian self-similar random fields: with strictly stationary rectangular increments and with mild stationary rectangular increments. We find explicit spectral and moving average representations for the fields…
Let $\{X(\mathbf{t}):\mathbf{t}=(t_1, t_2, \ldots, t_d)\in[0,\infty)^d\}$ be a centered stationary Gaussian field with almost surely continuous sample paths, unit variance and correlation function $r$ satisfying conditions $r(\mathbf{t})<1$…
A representation of the sharp coefficient in a pointwise estimate for the gradient of the generalized Poisson integral of a function $f$ on ${\mathbb R}^n$ is obtained under the assumption that $f$ belongs to $L^p$. The explicit value of…
We study sharp $p$-variational inequalities for the Hardy-Littlewood maximal operator on complete graphs, answering in the affirmative a question by Feng Liu and Qingying Xue. We also use computational assistance to find sharp constants in…
We consider harmonic functions in the unit ball of $\mathbb{R}^{n+1}$ that are unbounded near the boundary but can be estimated from above by some (rapidly increasing) radial weight $w$. Our main result gives some conditions on $w$ that…
