We consider high-dimensional estimation problems where the number of parameters diverges with the sample size. General conditions are established for consistency, uniqueness, and asymptotic normality in both unpenalized and penalized…

Sample size criteria are often expressed in terms of the concentration of the posterior density, as controlled by some sort of error bound. Since this is done pre-experimentally, one can regard the posterior density as a function of the…

We consider Ewens random permutations of length $n$ conditioned to have no cycle longer than $n^\beta$ with $0<\beta<1$ and to study the asymptotic behaviour as $n\to\infty$. We obtain very precise information on the joint distribution of…

Let K be a convex set in R d and let K $\lambda$ be the convex hull of a homogeneous Poisson point process P $\lambda$ of intensity $\lambda$ on K. When K is a simple polytope, we establish scaling limits as $\lambda$ $\rightarrow$ $\infty$…

We obtain the asymptotic expansion of the Voigt functions $K(x,y)$ and $L(x,y)$ for large (real) values of the variables $x$ and $y$, paying particular attention to the exponentially small contributions. A Stokes phenomenon is encountered…

The article studies the almost surely asymptotics of extreme values $\bar{\xi}_n = \max_{1\leq i \leq n} \xi_i$, where $ \xi , \xi_1 , \xi_2 , \ldots$ are discrete identically distributed random variables. One of the main results on this…
