Gaussian processes are a powerful framework for quantifying uncertainty and for sequential decision-making but are limited by the requirement of solving linear systems. In general, this has a cubic cost in dataset size and is sensitive to…

In this work, we investigate a theory of stochastic integration for operator-valued processes with respect to semimartingales taking values in the dual of a nuclear space. Our construction of this particular stochastic integral relies on…

Given a basis for a polynomial ring, the coefficients in the expansion of a product of some of its elements in terms of this basis are called linearization coefficients. These coefficients have combinatorial significance for many classical…
