We establish that Laplace transforms of the posterior Dirichlet process converge to those of the limiting Brownian bridge process in a neighbourhood about zero, uniformly over Glivenko-Cantelli function classes. For real-valued random…

The convex conjugate (i.e., the Legendre transform) of Type II error probability (volume) as a function of Type I error probability (volume) is determined for the hypothesis testing problem with randomized detectors. The derivation relies…

Let $(T,d)$ be a metric space and $\phi:\mathbb{R}_+\to \mathbb{R}$ an increasing, convex function with $\phi(0)=0$. We prove that if $m$ is a probability measure $m$ on $T$ which is majorizing with respect to $d,\phi$, that is,…

Let $(\Omega, \mathcal{A}, \mu)$ be a probability space. The classical Borel-Cantelli Lemma states that for any sequence of $\mu$-measurable sets $E_i$ ($i=1,2,3,\dots$), if the sum of their measures converges then the corresponding…

We prove that for any two centrally-symmetric convex shapes $K,L \subset \mathbb{R}^2$, the function $t \mapsto |e^t K \cap L|$ is log-concave. This extends a result of Cordero-Erausquin, Fradelizi and Maurey in the two dimensional case.…

To prove that a measure, linearly representable by means of a finite set of nonnegative matrices $\mathcal M$, has the weak-Gibbs property, one check the uniform convergence (on $\mathcal M^\mathbb N$) of the sequence of vectors…

The Mertens function is defined as $M(x) = \sum_{n \leq x} \mu(n)$, where $\mu(n)$ is the M\"obius function. The Mertens conjecture states $|M(x)/\sqrt{x}| < 1$ for $x > 1$, which was proven false in 1985 by showing $\liminf M(x)/\sqrt{x} <…

We prove a vector-valued non-homogeneous Tb theorem on certain quasimetric spaces equipped with what we call an upper doubling measure. Essentially, we merge recent techniques from the domain and range side of things, achieving a Tb theorem…

This paper achieves, among other things, the following: 1)It frees the main result of [BFKM] from the hypothesis of determinant class and extends this result from unitary to arbitrary representations. 2)It extends (and at the same times…

In this paper we prove that if $\{\varphi_i(x)=\lambda x+t_i\}$ is an equicontractive iterated function system and $b$ is a positive integer satisfying $\frac{\log b}{\log |\lambda|}\notin\mathbb{Q},$ then almost every $x$ is normal in base…

The flux function in the Buckley-Leverett equation, that is, the function characterizing the ratio of the relative mobility functions of the two phases, is considered. The common conjecture stating that any convex mobilities result in an…

In this paper, we study semiparametric inference for linear multivariate Hawkes processes, a class of point processes widely used to describe self and mutually exciting phenomena. We establish a convolution theorem giving the best limiting…

In the early 2000's the first and second named authors worked for a period of six years in an attempt of proving the Compositional Shuffle Conjecture [1]. Their approach was based on the discovery that all the Combinatorial properties…

Bernstein-von Mises results (BvM) establish that the Laplace approximation is asymptotically correct in the large-data limit. However, these results are inappropriate for computational purposes since they only hold over most, and not all,…

We introduce the entropic measure transform (EMT) problem for a general process and prove the existence of a unique optimal measure characterizing the solution. The density process of the optimal measure is characterized using a…

For a closed Riemannian manifold $(M,g)$ of dimension $n$, let $\lambda_{1}(g)$ be the first positive eigenvalue of the Laplace--Beltrami operator $\Delta_{g}$ and $\mbox{Vol}(M,g)$ the volume of $(M, g)$. Considering the scale-invariant…

The Bernoulli convolution with parameter $\lambda\in(0,1)$ is the probability measure $\mu_\lambda$ that is the law of the random variable $\sum_{n\ge0}\pm\lambda^n$, where the signs are independent unbiased coin tosses. We prove that each…

In this paper, we show that if we have a sequence of Hadamard triples $\{(N_n,B_n,L_n)\}$ with $B_n\subset \{0,1,..,N_n-1\}$ for $n=1,2,...$, except an extreme case, then the associated Cantor-Moran measure $$ \begin{aligned} \mu =…

We prove a local $Tb$ theorem under close to minimal (up to certain `buffering') integrability assumptions, conjectured by S. Hofmann (El Escorial, 2008): Every cube is assumed to support two non-degenerate functions $b^1_Q\in L^p$ and…

In 10.1093/imrn/rnac258, the authors conjecture a combinatorial formula for the expressions $\Xi e_\alpha \rvert_{t=1}$, known as Symmetric Theta Trees Conjecture, in terms of tiered trees with an inversion statistic. In…
