The norm in classical Sobolev spaces can be expressed as a difference quotient. This expression can be used to generalize the space to the fractional smoothness case. Because the difference quotient is based on shifting the function, it…
Non-parametric inference for functional data over two-dimensional domains entails additional computational and statistical challenges, compared to the one-dimensional case. Separability of the covariance is commonly assumed to address these…
For a smooth, closed $n$-manifold $M$, we define an upper semi-continuous integer-valued complexity function on $H^1(M;{\mathbb R})$ using Morse theory. This measures how far an integral class is from being a fiber of a fibration. The fact…
This work addresses various open questions in the theory of active learning for nonparametric classification. Our contributions are both statistical and algorithmic: -We establish new minimax-rates for active learning under common…
We prove that the Hausdorff dimension of the set of points where a function in the Zygmund class in the euclidean space has bounded divided differences, is bigger or equal to 1. A similar result for functions in the Small Zygmund class is…
We define an effective divisor of the moduli space of stable curves $\overline{M_g}$, which is denoted $\overline{S^{2}W}$. Writing the class of $\overline{S^{2}W}$ in the Picard group of the moduli functor…
In this paper we prove two results which further classify smoothness properties of Hilbert schemes of points. This is done by counting classes of arrows on Young diagrams corresponding to monomial ideals, building on the approach taken by…
We show that a smooth function $f$ on $\mathbf R^d$ belongs to the Pilipovi{\'c} space $\mathcal H_{\flat _\sigma}(\mathbf R^d)$ or the Pilipovi{\'c} space $\mathcal H_{0,\flat _\sigma}(\mathbf R^d)$, if and only if the $L^p$ norm of…
Sequences diverge either because they head off to infinity or because they oscillate. Part 1 \cite{Part1} of this paper laid the pure mathematics groundwork by defining Archimedean classes of infinite numbers as limits of smooth sequences.…
Randomized smoothing has been shown to provide good certified-robustness guarantees for high-dimensional classification problems. It uses the probabilities of predicting the top two most-likely classes around an input point under a…
In this paper, we consider a generic probabilistic discriminative learner from the functional viewpoint and argue that, to make it learn well, it is necessary to constrain its hypothesis space to a set of non-trivial piecewise constant…
The 2d O(3) model is widely used as a toy model for ferromagnetism and for Quantum Chromodynamics. With the latter it shares --- among other basic aspects --- the property that the continuum functional integral splits into topological…
This article considers the Lipschitz space with mixed logarithmic smoothness of $2\pi$ periodic functions of several variables. We obtain equivalent descriptions of the norm of the Lipschitz space and prove embedding theorems between Besov…
We prove lower bounds for the approximation error of the variation-diminishing Schoenberg operator on the interval $[0,1]$ in terms of classical moduli of smoothness depending on the degree of the spline basis using a functional analysis…
We establish some sharp weighted trace inequalities $W^{1,2}(\rho^{1-2\sigma}, M)\hookrightarrow L^{\frac{2n}{n-2\sigma}}(\pa M)$ on $n+1$ dimensional compact smooth manifolds with smooth boundaries, where $\rho$ is a defining function of…
This paper explores various differentiable structures on the product manifold $M \times \mathbb{S}^k$, where $M$ is either a 4-dimensional closed, oriented, smooth manifold or a simply connected 5-dimensional closed, smooth manifold. We…
We introduce a 1-cocycle on the group of diffeomorphisms Diff$(M)$ of a smooth manifold $M$ endowed with a projective connection. This cocycle represents a nontrivial cohomology class of $\Diff(M)$ related to the Diff$(M)$-modules of second…
We develop nonparametric regression methods for the case when the true regression function is not necessarily smooth. More specifically, our approach is using the fractional Laplacian and is designed to handle the case when the true…
We extend Wolff's "local smoothing" inequality to a wider class of not necessarily conical hypersurfaces of codimension 1. This class includes surfaces with nonvanishing curvature, as well as certain surfaces with more than one flat…
For any smooth proper rigid analytic space $X$ over a complete algebraically closed extension of $\mathbb Q_p$, we construct a $p$-adic Simpson correspondence: an equivalence of categories between vector bundles on Scholze's pro-\'etale…
