For a function $f$, continuous on a compact convex set $K$ and analytic in its interior we construct a sequence of almost optimal polynomials that converge with a geometric rate at points of analyticity of $f$.

Fine regularity of stochastic processes is usually measured in a local way by local H\"older exponents and in a global way by fractal dimensions. Following a previous work of Adler, we connect these two concepts for multiparameter Gaussian…

Let $X=\{X(t),t\in R_+\}$ be a real-valued symmetric L\'{e}vy process with continuous local times $\{L^x_t,(t,x)\in R_+\times R\}$ and characteristic function $Ee^{i\lambda X(t)}=e^{-t\psi(\lambda)}$. Let…

This paper gives necessary conditions and slightly stronger sufficient conditions for a holomorphic function to be the Segal-Bargmann transform of a function in L^p(R^d) with respect to a Gaussian measure. The proof relies on a family of…

The Gaussian Correlation Conjecture states that for any two symmetric, convex sets in n-dimensional space and for any centered, Gaussian measure on that space, the measure of the intersection is greater than or equal to the product of the…

We introduce a continuous analog of the Fourier ratio for compactly supported Borel measures. For a measure \(\mu\) on \(\mathbb{R}^d\) and \(f\in L^2(\mu)\), the Fourier ratio compares \(L^1\) and \(L^2\) norms of a regularized Fourier…

We prove relative Fatou's theorem for nonnegative harmonic functions with respect to a large class of killed subordinate Brownian motions with Gaussian components in bounded $C^{1,1}$ open sets in $\mathbb{R}^{d}$, $d\geq 2$, which asserts…

We show how rational function approximations to the logarithm, such as $\log z \approx (z^2 - 1)/(z^2 + 6z + 1)$, can be turned into fast algorithms for approximating the determinant of a very large matrix. We empirically demonstrate that…

Let $\alpha$ be a Steinhaus or a Rademacher random multiplicative function. For a wide class of multiplicative functions $f$ we show that the sum $\sum_{n \le x}\alpha(n) f(n)$, normalised to have mean square $1$, has a non-Gaussian…

An algebraic approximation, of order $K$, of a polyhedron correlation function (CF) can be obtained from $\gamma\pp(r)$, its chord-length distribution (CLD), considering first, within the subinterval $[D_{i-1},\, D_i]$ of the full range of…

We study the regularity properties of the centered fractional maximal function $M_{\beta}$. More precisely, we prove that the map $f \mapsto |\nabla M_\beta f|$ is bounded and continuous from $W^{1,1}(\mathbb{R}^d)$ to $L^q(\mathbb{R}^d)$…

Let $\mathcal{F}$ denote the set of functions $f \colon [-1/2,1/2] \to \mathbb{R}$ such that $\int f = 1$. We determine the value of $\inf_{f \in \mathcal{F}} \| f \ast f \|_2$ up to a 0.0014\% error, thereby making progress on a problem…

A result of Chernoff gives sufficient condition for an $L^2$-function on $\R^n$ to be quasi-analytic. This is a generalization of the classical Denjoy-Carleman theorem on $\R$ and of the subsequent work on $\R^n$ by Bochner and Taylor. In…

In most classical holomorphic function spaces on the unit disk in which the polynomials are dense, a function $f$ can be approximated in norm by its dilates $f_r(z):=f(rz)~(r<1)$, in other words, $\lim_{r\to1^-}\|f_r-f\|=0$. We construct a…

We characterize when the finite Cartesian product of central sets near idempotent is central near idempotent. Moreover, we provide a partial characterization for the infinite Cartesian product of the same. Then, we study the abundance of…

We investigate the numerical approximation of integrals over $\mathbb{R}^d$ equipped with the standard Gaussian measure $\gamma$ for integrands belonging to the Gaussian-weighted Sobolev spaces $W^\alpha_p(\mathbb{R}^d, \gamma)$ of mixed…

Stein's method for Gaussian process approximation can be used to bound the differences between the expectations of smooth functionals $h$ of a c\`adl\`ag random process $X$ of interest and the expectations of the same functionals of a well…

In this short note we study how well a Gaussian distribution can be approximated by distributions supported on $[-a,a]$. Perhaps, the natural conjecture is that for large $a$ the almost optimal choice is given by truncating the Gaussian to…

Given a function f: [a,b] -> R, if f(a) < 0 and f(b)> 0 and f is continuous, the Intermediate Value Theorem implies that f has a root in [a,b]. Moreover, given a value-oracle for f, an approximate root of f can be computed using the…

We establish two new estimates which control a function (after subtracting its average) in $L^1$ by only the $L^1$ norm of its radial derivative. While the interior estimate holds for all superharmonic functions, the boundary version is…
