We consider nonparametric regression in the context of functional data, that is, when a random sample of functions is observed on a fine grid. We obtain a functional asymptotic normality result allowing to build simultaneous confidence…

We derive bounds on the scope for a confidence band to adapt to the unknown regularity of a nonparametric function that is observed with noise, such as a regression function or density, under the self-similarity condition proposed by Gine…

A notion of band limited functions is considered in the case of the hyperbolic plane in its Poincare upper half-plane $\mathbb{H}$ realization. The concept of band-limitedness is based on the existence of the Helgason-Fourier transform on…
