Despite many applications, dimensionality reduction in the $\ell_1$-norm is much less understood than in the Euclidean norm. We give two new oblivious dimensionality reduction techniques for the $\ell_1$-norm which improve exponentially…

It is numerically well known that moment-based tests for Gaussianity and estimators become increasingly unreliable at higher moment orders; however, this phenomenon has lacked rigorous mathematical justification. In this work, we establish…

For probability distributions on $\mathbb{R}^n$, we study the optimal sample size N = N(n,p) that suffices to uniformly approximate the pth moments of all one-dimensional marginals. Under the assumption that the marginals have bounded 4p…

Maximal inequalities refer to bounds on expected values of the supremum of averages of random variables over a collection. They play a crucial role in the study of non-parametric and high-dimensional estimators, and especially in the study…
