The celebrated theorem of Komlos asserts that L1-boundedness is sufficient for a given sequence of functions to contain a subsequence along which (in a "lacunary" manner), and along whose every further subsequence ("hereditarily"), a strong…

The problem of finding \emph{distance} between \emph{pattern} of length $m$ and \emph{text} of length $n$ is a typical way of generalizing pattern matching to incorporate dissimilarity score. For both Hamming and $L_1$ distances only a…

We derive upper and lower bounds on the overall compression ratio of the 1978 Lempel-Ziv (LZ78) algorithm, applied independently to $k$-blocks of a finite individual sequence. Both bounds are given in terms of normalized empirical entropies…

Paul Erd\H{o}s and L\'{a}szl\'{o} Lov\'{a}sz proved in a landmark article that, for any positive integer $k$, up to isomorphism there are only finitely many maximal intersecting families of $k-$sets (maximal $k-$cliques). So they posed the…

We consider linear inverse problems under white noise. These types of problems can be tackled with, e.g., iterative regularisation methods and the main challenge is to determine a suitable stopping index for the iteration. Convergence…

Let $p$ and $q$ be two distinct fixed prime numbers and $(n_i)_{i\geq 0}$ the sequence of consecutive integers of the form $p^a\cdot q^b$ with $a,b\ge 0$. Tijdeman gave a lower bound (1973) and an upper bound (1974) for the gap size…

Based on a law of the iterated logarithm for independent random variables sequences, an iterated logarithm theorem for NA sequences with non-identical distributions is obtained. The proof is based on a Kolmogrov-type exponential inequality.

We investigate low-regularity integrator (LRI) methods for the Q-tensor model governing nematic liquid-crystalline semilinear parabolic equation. First- and second-order temporal discretizations are developed using Duhamel's formula, and we…

The Erd\H{o}s distance problem concerns the least number of distinct distances that can be determined by $N$ points in the plane. The integer lattice with $N$ points is known as \textit{near-optimal}, as it spans $\Theta(N/\sqrt{\log(N)})$…

We provide a unified theoretical analysis of Linear Discriminant Analysis with simultaneous multilabel scatter matrix formulations and Stiefel orthogonality constraints. Our contributions span both algebraic structure and statistical…

Let \((a_n)_{n \in \mathbb{N}}\) be a lacunary sequence of integers satisfying the Hadamard gap condition. For any fixed dimension $d \geq 1$, we establish asymptotic upper bounds for the maximal gap in the set of dilates…

In this work, we close the fundamental gap of theory and practice by providing an improved regret bound for linear ensemble sampling. We prove that with an ensemble size logarithmic in $T$, linear ensemble sampling can achieve a frequentist…

An iterative optimization method applied to a function $f$ on $\mathbb{R}^n$ will produce a sequence of arguments $\{\mathbf{x}_k\}_{k \in \mathbb{N}}$; this sequence is often constrained such that $\{f(\mathbf{x}_k)\}_{k \in \mathbb{N}}$…
