In recent years, bootstrap methods have drawn attention for their ability to approximate the laws of "max statistics" in high-dimensional problems. A leading example of such a statistic is the coordinate-wise maximum of a sample average of…

Doubly robust estimators have gained popularity in the field of causal inference due to their ability to provide consistent point estimates when either an outcome or exposure model is correctly specified. However, for nonrandomized…

In this article, we study whether the slope functions of two scalar-on-function regression models in two samples are associated with any arbitrary transformation along the vertical axis. The problem is formally stated as a statistical…

This paper establishs the large deviation principle (LDP) for multiple averages on $\mathbb{N}^d$. We extend the previous work of [Carinci et al., Indag. Math. 2012] to multidimensional lattice $\mathbb{N}^d$ for $d\geq 2$. The same…
