We consider an inhomogeneous Poisson process $X$ on $[0,T]$. The intensity function of $X$ is supposed to be strictly positive and smooth on $[0,T]$ except at the point $\theta$, in which it has either a 0-type singularity (tends to 0 like…

Existence and stability properties are studied for Hawkes process, i.e. point process $S$ that has long-memory and intensity $r(t)=\lambda \big(g_0(t)+ \sum_{\tau<t, \tau \in S} h(t-\tau) \big)$. The approach to Hawkes process presented in…

Let $X=(X_t)_{t\geq 0}$ be a known process and $T$ an unknown random time independent of $X$. Our goal is to derive the distribution of $T$ based on an iid sample of $X_T$. Belomestny and Schoenmakers (2015) propose a solution based the…

We show how convergence to the Gumbel distribution in an extreme value setting can be understood in an information-theoretic sense. We introduce a new type of score function which behaves well under the maximum operation, and which implies…

In all but special circumstances, measurements of time-dependent processes reflect internal structures and correlations only indirectly. Building predictive models of such hidden information sources requires discovering, in some way, the…

We construct random point processes in the complex plane that are asymptotically close to a given doubling measure. The processes we construct are the zero sets of random entire functions that are constructed through generalised Fock…

In this paper, we discuss asymptotic relations for the approximation of $\left\vert x\right\vert ^{\alpha},\alpha>0$ in $L_{\infty}\left[ -1,1\right] $ by Lagrange interpolation polynomials based on the zeros of the Chebyshev polynomials of…

We discuss nonparametric mixing distribution estimation under the Gaussian-smoothed optimal transport (GOT) distance. It is shown that a recently formulated conjecture -- that the Poisson nonparametric maximum likelihood estimator can…

For each $\lambda>0$ and every square-integrable infinitely-divisible (ID) distribution there exists at least one stationary stochastic process $t\mapsto X_t$ with the specified distribution for $X_1$ and with first-order autoregressive…

Consider two independent Poisson point processes of unit intensity in the Euclidean space of dimension $d$ at least 3. We construct a perfect matching between the two point sets that is a factor (i.e., an equivariant measurable function of…

We consider the typical distance between vertices of the giant component of a random intersection graph having a power law (asymptotic) vertex degree distribution with infinite second moment. Given two vertices from the giant component we…

Recently, the distributed state estimation problem for continuous-time linear systems over jointly connected switching networks was solved. It was shown that the estimation errors will asymptotically converge to the origin by using the…

In a previous paper, the authors proved a conjecture of Lalley and Sellke that the empirical (time-averaged) distribution function of the maximum of branching Brownian motion converges almost surely to a Gumbel distribution. The result is…

Long gamma-ray burst (GRB) prompt emission shows a correlation between the intrinsic peak energy, $E_{\mathrm{p,i}}$, of the time-average $\nu F_{\nu}$ spectrum and the isotropic-equivalent peak gamma-ray luminosity, $L_{{\rm p,iso}}$, as…

We consider forecasting the latent rate profiles of a time series of inhomogeneous Poisson processes. The work is motivated by operations management of queueing systems, in particular, telephone call centers, where accurate forecasting of…

New relations between ergodic rate, L_p convergence rates, and asymptotic behavior of tail probabilities for hitting times of a time homogeneous Markov process are established. For L_p convergence rates and related spectral and functional…

As a first step toward a characterization of the limiting extremal process of branching Brownian motion, we proved in a recent work [Comm. Pure Appl. Math. 64 (2011) 1647-1676] that, in the limit of large time $t$, extremal particles…

Let $(X_k)_{k\geq1}$ be a Gaussian long-range dependent process with $EX_1=0$, $EX_1^2=1$ and covariance function $r(k)=k^{-D}L(k)$. For any measurable function $G$ let $(Y_k)_{k\geq1}=(G(X_k))_{k\geq1}$. We study the asymptotic behaviour…

We present an efficient sampling method for computing a partition function and accelerating configuration sampling. The method performs a random walk in the $\lambda$ space, with $\lambda$ being any thermodynamic variable that characterizes…

We compute a closed-form expression for the moment generating function $\hat{f}(x;\lambda,\alpha)=\frac{1}{\lambda}\mathbb{E}_x(e^{\alpha L_{\tau}})$, where $L_t$ is the local time at zero for standard Brownian motion with reflecting…
