We present a new and surprisingly simple analysis of random-shift decompositions -- originally proposed by Miller, Peng, and Xu [SPAA'13]: We show that decompositions for exponentially growing scales $D = 2^0, 2^1, \ldots,…

This paper proposes an algorithm to generate random numbers from any member of the truncated multivariate elliptical family of distributions with a strictly decreasing density generating function. Based on Neal (2003) and Ho et al. (2012),…

In this paper, we study existence, multiplicity and concentration of positive solutions for the following class of quasilinear problems \[ - \Delta_{\Phi}u + V(\epsilon x)\phi(\vert u\vert)u = f(u)\quad \mbox{in} \quad \mathbb{R}^{N} \,\,\,…

We study the approximation of a square-integrable function from a finite number of evaluations on a random set of nodes according to a well-chosen distribution. This is particularly relevant when the function is assumed to belong to a…

We consider the problem of reconstructing an unknown function $u\in L^2(D,\mu)$ from its evaluations at given sampling points $x^1,\dots,x^m\in D$, where $D\subset \mathbb R^d$ is a general domain and $\mu$ a probability measure. The…

Let $X$ be an orientable hyperbolic surface of genus $g\geq 2$ with a marked point $o$, and let $\Gamma$ be an orientable hyperbolic surface group isomorphic to $\pi_{1}(X,o)$. Consider the space $\text{Hom}(\Gamma,S_{n})$ which corresponds…

Finite Sample Smeariness (FSS) has been recently discovered. It means that the distribution of sample Fr\'echet means of underlying rather unsuspicious random variables can behave as if it were smeary for quite large regimes of finite…

Following the concentration of the measure theory formalism, we consider the transformation $\Phi(Z)$ of a random variable $Z$ having a general concentration function $\alpha$. If the transformation $\Phi$ is $\lambda$-Lipschitz with…

This work is based on the proposal of a deterministic randomness extractor of a random Diffie-Hellman element defined over two prime order multiplicative subgroups of a finite fields $\mathbb{F}_{p^n}$, $G_1$ and $G_2$. We show that the…

We develop a general framework for estimating the $L_\infty(\mathbb{T}^d)$ error for the approximation of multivariate periodic functions belonging to specific reproducing kernel Hilbert spaces (RHKS) using approximants that are…

For a sample of absolutely bounded i.i.d. random variables with a continuous density the cumulative distribution function of the sample variance is represented by a univariate integral over a Fourier series. If the density is a polynomial…

Let $\Phi$ be a concave function on $(0,\infty)$ of strictly lower type $p_{\Phi}\in(0,1]$ and $\omega\in A^{\mathop\mathrm{loc}}_{\infty}(\mathbb{R}^n)$. We introduce the weighted local Orlicz-Hardy space $h^{\Phi}_{\omega}(\mathbb{R}^n)$…

We show that the moment generating function of the Kullback-Leibler divergence (relative entropy) between the empirical distribution of $n$ independent samples from a distribution $P$ over a finite alphabet of size $k$ (i.e. a multinomial…

Let $\eta_i, i=1,..., n$ be iid Bernoulli random variables, taking values $\pm 1$ with probability 1/2. Given a multiset $V$ of $n$ elements $v_1, ..., v_n$ of an additive group $G$, we define the \emph{concentration probability} of $V$ as…

The local number variance associated with a spherical sampling window of radius $R$ enables a classification of many-particle systems in $d$-dimensional Euclidean space according to the degree to which large-scale density fluctuations are…

In this paper we introduce a new approach for approximately counting in bounded degree systems with higher-order constraints. Our main result is an algorithm to approximately count the number of solutions to a CNF formula $\Phi$ when the…

Consider a unimodular random graph, or just a finitely generated Cayley graph. When does its cycle space have an invariant random generating set of cycles such that every edge is contained in finitely many of the cycles? Generating the free…

We study the length of cycles in the model of spatial random permutations in Euclidean space. In this model, for given length $L$, density $\rho$, dimension $d$ and jump density $\varphi$, one samples $\rho L^d$ particles in a…

Motivated by the fact that circular or spherical data are often much concentrated around a location $\pmb\theta$, we consider inference about $\pmb\theta$ under "high concentration" asymptotic scenarios for which the probability of any…
