We study the Stein equation associated with the one-dimensional Gamma distribution, and provide novel bounds, allowing one to effectively deal with test functions supported by the whole real line. We apply our estimates to derive new…

We prove necessary optimality conditions of Euler-Lagrange type for generalized problems of the calculus of variations on time scales with a Lagrangian depending not only on the independent variable, an unknown function and its delta…

Let $G$ be a group with a finite subgroup $H$. We define the $L^2$-multiplicity of an irreducible representation of $H$ in the $L^2$-homology of a proper $G$-CW-complex. These invariants generalize the $L^2$-Betti numbers. Our main results…

A consistent functional calculus approach to the spectral theorem for strongly commuting normal operators on Hilbert spaces is presented. In contrast to the common approaches using projection-valued measures or multiplication operators,…

We introduce partial secondary invariants associated to complete Riemannian metrics which have uniformly positive scalar curvature outside a prescribed subset on a spin manifold. These can be used to distinguish such Riemannian metrics up…

The long-wavelength, weak-dispersion limit of the discrete nonlinear Schr\"odinger equation with long-range dispersion is analytically considered. This continuum approximation is carried out irrespective of the dispersion range and hence…

The representations of a $k$-graph $C^*$-algebra $C^*(\Lambda)$ which arise from $\Lambda$-semibranching function systems are closely linked to the dynamics of the $k$-graph $\Lambda$. In this paper, we undertake a systematic analysis of…

The equilibrium distribution function determines macroscopic observables in statistical physics. While conventional methods correct equilibrium distributions in weakly nonlinear or near-integrable systems, they fail in strongly nonlinear…

Nonlinear optimal control problems in Hilbert spaces are considered for which we derive approximation theorems for Galerkin approximations. Approximation theorems are available in the literature. The originality of our approach relies on…

We prove that the problem of deciding the consequence relation of the full Lambek calculus with weakening is complete for the class HAck of hyper-Ackermannian problems (i.e., level F_{\omega}^{\omega} of the ordinal-indexed hierarchy of…

We propose a new class of goodness-of-fit tests for the inverse Gaussian distribution. The proposed tests are weighted $L^2$-type tests depending on a tuning parameter. We develop the asymptotic theory under the null hypothesis and under a…

We solve the Fokker-Planck equation for Brownian motion in a logarithmic potential. When the diffusion constant is below a critical value the solution approaches a non-normalizable scaling state, reminiscent of an infinite invariant…

We obtain multidimensional metric uniform distribution results involving sequences in ${\mathbb R}^k$ parametrized by analytic curves. Our theorems extend the classical theorems of Weyl and Koksma in a variety of ways. One of our main…

Given any finite subset $A$ of order $n$ of a distributive lattice and $k\in\{1,...,n\}$, there is a natural extension of the median operation to $n$ variables which generalizes the notion of the $k$th smallest element of $A$. By applying…

The Plackett--Luce model has been extensively used for rank aggregation in social choice theory. A central statistical question in this model concerns estimating the utility vector that governs the model's likelihood. In this paper, we…

We introduce a definition of pressure for almost-additive sequences of continuous functions defined over (non-compact) countable Markov shifts. The variational principle is proved. Under certain assumptions we prove the existence of Gibbs…

The classical Eagleson's theorem states that if appropriately normalized Birkhoff sums generated by a measurable function and a probability preserving transformation converge in distribution, then they also converge in distribution with…

We show that every operator in $L^{2}$ has an associated measure on a space of functions and prove that it can be used to find solutions to abstract Cauchy problems, including partial differential equations. We find explicit formulas to…
