We present a unified approach to get explicit formulas for utility maximising strategies in Exponential Levy models. This approach is related to $f$-divergence minimal martingale measures and based on a new concept of preservation of the…
Let $X_1,..., X_N\in\R^n$ be independent centered random vectors with log-concave distribution and with the identity as covariance matrix. We show that with overwhelming probability at least $1 - 3 \exp(-c\sqrt{n}\r)$ one has $ \sup_{x\in…
We study the standard-form ILP problem $\max\{ c^\top x \colon A x = b,\; x \in Z_{\geq 0}^n \}$, where $A\in Z^{k\times n}$ has full row rank. We obtain refined FPT algorithms parameterized by $k$ and $\Delta$, the maximum absolute value…
Self-normalized processes arise naturally in statistical applications. Being unit free, they are not affected by scale changes. Moreover, self-normalization often eliminates or weakens moment assumptions. In this paper we present several…
We consider the large time behavior of solutions to defocusing nonlinear Schrodinger equation in the presence of a time dependent external potential. The main assumption on the potential is that it grows at most quadratically in space,…
Let $X$ be a supermartingale starting from $0$ which has only nonnegative jumps. For each $0<p<1$ we determine the best constants $c_p$, $C_p$ and $\mathfrak{c}_p$ such that $$ \,\,\,\,\sup_{t\geq 0}\left|\left|X_t\right|\right|_p\leq…
The aim of this paper is to propose new Rosenthal-type inequalities for moments of order higher than 2 of the maximum of partial sums of stationary sequences including martingales and their generalizations. As in the recent results by…

Let $(\lambda_n)_{n \geq 1}$ be a non-negative sequence with $\lambda_1>0$ and let $\Lambda_n=\sum^n_{i=1}\lambda_i$. We study the following Copson inequality for $0<p<1$, $L>p$, \begin{align*} \sum^{\infty}_{n=1}\left (\frac 1{\Lambda_n}…
We establish large deviation principles for the largest eigenvalue of large random matrices with variance profiles. For $N \in \mathbb N$, we consider random $N \times N$ symmetric matrices $H^N$ which are such that…
Suppose $X_1,X_2,...$ are i.i.d. nonnegative random variables with finite expectation, and for each $k$, $X_k$ is observed at the $k$-th arrival time $S_k$ of a Poisson process with unit rate which is independent of the sequence $\{X_k\}$.…
Let E be the Engel group and D be a rank 2 bracket generating left invariant distribution with a Lorentzian metric, which is a nondegenerate metric of index 1. In this paper, we first prove that timelike normal extremals are locally…

For an irrational real $\alpha$ and $\gamma\not \in \mathbb Z + \mathbb Z\alpha$ it is well known that $$ \liminf_{|n|\rightarrow \infty} |n| ||n\alpha -\gamma || \leq \frac{1}{4}. $$ If the partial quotients, $a_i,$ in the negative…
We derive the Marchenko-Pastur (MP) law for sample covariance matrices of the form $V_n=\frac{1}{n}XX^T$, where $X$ is a $p\times n$ data matrix and $p/n\to y\in(0,\infty)$ as $n,p \to \infty$. We assume the data in $X$ stems from a…
