We develop techniques for determining the exact asymptotic speed of convergence in the multidimensional normal approximation of smooth functions of Gaussian fields. As a by-product, our findings yield exact limits and often give rise to…

We study the convergence of stochastic fixed point iterations in the consistent case (in the sense of Butnariu and Fl{\aa}m (1995)) in several different settings, under decreasingly restrictive regularity assumptions of the fixed point…

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…

We obtain Stein approximation bounds for stochastic integrals with respect to a Poisson random measure over ${\Bbb R}^d$, $d\geq 2$. This approach relies on third cumulant Edgeworth-type expansions based on derivation operators defined by…

Although the \emph{residual method}, or \emph{constrained regularization}, is frequently used in applications, a detailed study of its properties is still missing. This sharply contrasts the progress of the theory of Tikhonov…

We consider optimizing a function smooth convex function $f$ that is the average of a set of differentiable functions $f_i$, under the assumption considered by Solodov [1998] and Tseng [1998] that the norm of each gradient $f_i'$ is bounded…

Some prominent discretisation methods such as finite elements provide a way to approximate a function of $d$ variables from $n$ values it takes on the nodes $x_i$ of the corresponding mesh. The accuracy is $n^{-s_a/d}$ in $L^2$-norm, where…

Let $S_{n}$ be a sum of independent identically distribution random variables with finite first moment and $h_{M}$ be a call function defined by $g_{M}(x)=\max\{x-M,0\}$ for $x\in\mathbb{R}$, $M>0$. In this paper, we assume the random…

We analyze the constant step size subgradient method on nonsmooth, nonconvex functions. We identify geometric assumptions on the objective function under which i) its domain admits a partition (stratification) into smooth manifolds (strata)…

We investigate the connections between the mean pathwise regularity of stochastic processes and their L^r(P)-functional quantization rates as random variables taking values in some L^p([0,T],dt)-spaces (0 < p <= r). Our main tool is the…

We use the Stein-Chen method to obtain compound Poisson approximations for the distribution of the number of subgraphs in a generalised stochastic block model which are isomorphic to some fixed graph. This model generalises the classical…

Optimization on Riemannian manifolds widely arises in eigenvalue computation, density functional theory, Bose-Einstein condensates, low rank nearest correlation, image registration, and signal processing, etc. We propose an adaptive…

We consider distributions on a closed compact manifold $M$ as maps on smoothing operators. Thus spaces of certain maps between $\Psi^{-\infty}(M)\to \mathcal{C}^{\infty}(M)$ are considered as generalized functions. For any collection of…

In this paper we consider the problem of estimating the parameters of a Poisson arrival process where the rate function is assumed to lie in the span of a known basis. Our goal is to estimate the basis expansions coefficients given a…

Conditional stability estimates require additional regularization for obtaining stable approximate solutions if the validity area of such estimates is not completely known. In this context, we consider ill-posed nonlinear inverse problems…

Tikhonov regularization involves minimizing the combination of a data discrepancy term and a regularizing term, and is the standard approach for solving inverse problems. The use of non-convex regularizers, such as those defined by trained…

In this paper, we study the Tikhonov regularization scheme in Hilbert scales for the nonlinear statistical inverse problem with a general noise. The regularizing norm in this scheme is stronger than the norm in Hilbert space. We focus on…
