We investigate invariant random fields on the sphere using a new type of spherical wavelets, called needlets. These are compactly supported in frequency and enjoy excellent localization properties in real space, with quasi-exponentially…

The algorithmic theory of randomness is well developed when the underlying space is the set of finite or infinite sequences and the underlying probability distribution is the uniform distribution or a computable distribution. These…

This paper proposes a robust test for assessing isotropy based on the variogram of spatial data on a two-dimensional regular grid. The test is based on the non-robust subsampling test for isotropy of Guan et al. (2004), which uses the idea…

Working within the deep-MOND limit (DML), I describe spherical, self-gravitating systems governed by a polytropic equation of state, $P=\mathcal{K}\rho^\gamma$. As self-consistent structures, such systems can serve as heuristic models for…

This paper considers testing a covariance matrix $\Sigma$ in the high dimensional setting where the dimension $p$ can be comparable or much larger than the sample size $n$. The problem of testing the hypothesis $H_0:\Sigma=\Sigma_0$ for a…

Intrinsic nonlinear elasticity deals with the deformations of elastic bodies as isometric immersions of Riemannian manifolds into the Euclidean spaces (see Ciarlet [9,10]). In this paper, we study the rigidity and continuity properties of…
