As is known, the convolution $\mu*\nu$ of two $G$-normal distributions $\mu, \nu$ with different intervals of variances may not be $G$-normal. We shows that $\mu*\nu$ is a $G$-normal distribution if and only if…

In this article, we develop Stein characterization for two-sided tempered stable distribution. Stein characterizations for normal, gamma, Laplace, and variance-gamma distributions already known in the literature follow easily. One can also…

We obtain a Stein characterisation of the distribution of the product of two correlated normal random variables with non-zero means, and more generally the distribution of the sum of independent copies of such random variables. Our Stein…

It has been a well-known problem in the $G$-framework that it is hard to compute the sublinear expectation of the $G$-normal distribution $\hat{\mathbb{E}}[\varphi(X)]$ when $\varphi$ is neither convex nor concave, if not involving any PDE…

This work presents the first systematic development of Stein's method for matrix distributions. We establish the basic essential ingredients of Stein's method for matrix normal approximation: we derive a generator-based Stein identity from…

Starting from the probability distribution of finite N-body systems, which maximises the Havrda--Charv\'at entropy, we build a Stein-type goodness-of-fit test. The Maxwell--Boltzmann distribution is exact only in the thermodynamic limit,…

Let $G = O^{p'}(\bar{G}^F)$ be a finite simple group of Lie type defined over a field of characteristic $p$, where $F$ is a Steinberg endomorphism of the ambient simple algebraic group $\bar{G}$. Let $\bar{T}$ be an $F$-stable maximal torus…

A $G$-normal random variable $X\sim \mathcal{N}(0,[\underline{\sigma}^2,\overline{\sigma}^2])$ does not admit a unique probability law due to volatility uncertainty. For a given test function $\phi$, the $G$-expectation admits the…

We investigate some aspects of the problem of the estimation of birth distributions (BD) in multi-type Galton-Watson trees (MGW) with unobserved types. More precisely, we consider two-type MGW called spinal-structured trees. This kind of…

Given a finite group scheme $G$ over a field and a $G$-variety $X$, we obtain a criterion for $X$ to be $G$-normal in the sense of \cite{Br24}. When $G$ is diagonalizable, we describe the local structure of $G$-normal varieties in…
