We develop novel empirical Bernstein inequalities for the variance of bounded random variables. Our inequalities hold under constant conditional variance and mean, without further assumptions like independence or identical distribution of…

Error bounds are central objects in optimization theory and its applications. They were for a long time restricted only to the theory before becoming over the course of time a field of itself. This paper is devoted to the study of error…

We prove that the classical Efron--Stein inequality holds for independent exchangeable pairs \((X_i,Y_i)\). The same inequality fails for independent identically distributed pairs; a simple trigonometric counterexample shows that the…

We give a generalized Thurston--Bennequin-type inequality for links in $S^3$ using a Bauer--Furuta-type invariant for 4-manifolds with contact boundary. As a special case, we also give an adjunction inequality for smoothly embedded…

Let $X_n=\sum_{i=1}^{\infty}a_i\epsilon_{n-i}$, where the $\epsilon_i$ are i.i.d. with mean 0 and at least finite second moment, and the $a_i$ are assumed to satisfy $|a_i|=O(i^{-\beta})$ with $\beta >1/2$. When $1/2<\beta<1$, $X_n$ is…

When I first encountered PAC-Bayesian concentration inequalities they seemed to me to be rather disconnected from good old-fashioned results like Hoeffding's and Bernstein's inequalities. But, at least for one flavour of the PAC-Bayesian…

This paper deals with various questions related to the isoperimetic problem for smooth positive measure $d\mu = \varphi(x)dx$, with $x \in \Omega \subset \mathbb{R}^N$. Firstly we find some necessary conditions on the density of the measure…

We derive strong variance-based uncertainty relations for arbitrary two and more unitary operators by re-examining the mathematical foundation of the uncertainty relation. This is achieved by strengthening the celebrated Cauchy-Schwarz…

In this article we present a Bernstein inequality for sums of random variables which are defined on a graphical network whose nodes grow at an exponential rate. The inequality can be used to derive concentration inequalities in…

The Sphere Covering Inequality was introduced in \cite{GM} (\emph{Invent. Math.}, 2018) as a sharp geometric inequality that provides a lower bound for the total area of two distinct surfaces of Gaussian curvature 1. These surfaces are…

For every connected graph $G$ and surface $S$, we consider the well-known string of inequalities $\delta_S(G) \leq \mu_S(G) \leq \nu_S(G)$, where $\mu$ and $\nu$ denote skewness and crossing number and $\delta$ is the Euler-formula lower…
