We study the regularity of densities of distributions that are polynomial images of the standard Gaussian measure on $\mathbb{R}^n$. We assume that the degree of a polynomial is fixed and that each variable enters to a power bounded by…

We consider the problem of computing the distance between two piecewise-linear bivariate functions $f$ and $g$ defined over a common domain $M$. We focus on the distance induced by the $L_2$-norm, that is $\|f-g\|_2=\sqrt{\iint_M (f-g)^2}$.…
Compactness is one of the most versatile tools in the analysis of nonlinear PDEs and systems. Usually, compactness is established by means of some embedding theorem between functional spaces. Such theorems, in turn, rely on appropriate…
We study a stochastic Hamiltonian system of $N$ particles with many particles interacting through a potential whose range is large in comparison with the typical distance between neighbouring particles. It is shown that the empirical…
Consider the Mills ratio $f(x)=\big(1-\Phi(x)\big)/\phi(x), \, x\ge 0$, where $\phi$ is the density function of the standard Gaussian law and $\Phi$ its cumulative distribution.We introduce a general procedure to approximate $f$ on the…
Context: Two-point correlation functions are used throughout cosmology as a measure for the statistics of random fields. When used in Bayesian parameter estimation, their likelihood function is usually replaced by a Gaussian approximation.…
We consider the random point processes on a measure space X defined by the Gibbs measures associated to a given sequence of N-particle Hamiltonians H^{(N)}. Inspired by the method of Messer-Spohn for proving concentration properties for the…

Using Malliavin operators together with an interpolation technique inspired by Arratia, Goldstein and Gordon (1989), we prove a new inequality on the Poisson space, allowing one to measure the distance between the laws of a general random…
In [3], algorithms to compute the density of the distance to a random variable uniformly distributed in (a) a ball, (b) a disk, (c) a line segment, or (d) a polygone were introduced. For case (d), the algorithm, based on Green's theorem,…
We study the problem of the existence and regularity of a probability density in an abstract framework based on a "balancing" with approximating absolutely continuous laws. Typically, the absolutely continuous property for the approximating…
We study the Riemannian Langevin Algorithm for the problem of sampling from a distribution with density $\nu$ with respect to the natural measure on a manifold with metric $g$. We assume that the target density satisfies a log-Sobolev…
