We study two notions of concentration for homogeneous polynomials of degree $N$ in $d+1$ complex variables on the unit sphere: a local notion measuring the fraction of the $L^2$-norm supported on a measurable subset; and a global notion…

We obtain a Bernstein type Gaussian concentration inequality for martingales. Our inequality improves the Azuma-Hoeffding inequality for moderate deviations $x$. Following the work of McDiarmid (1989), Talagrand (1996) and Boucheron, Lugosi…

In this note, we prove that on any graph of maximal degree $d$ the mixing time of the Glauber Dynamics for the Ising Model at $\beta_c=\tanh^{-1}(\frac1{d-1})$, the uniqueness threshold on the infinite $d$-regular tree, is at most…

We obtain the tail probability of generalized sub-Gaussian canonical processes. It can be viewed as a variant of the Bernstein-type inequality in the i.i.d case, and we further get a tighter bound of concentration inequality through…

We study the simultaneous concentration of the values of several additive functions along polynomial shifts. Under a slight restriction, this yields an extension of a result from Hal\'asz in 1975.

We consider the problem of recovering a real-valued $n$-dimensional signal from $m$ phaseless, linear measurements and analyze the amplitude-based non-smooth least squares objective. We establish local convergence of subgradient descent…

Consider $n$ complex random matrices $X_1,\ldots,X_n$ of size $d\times d$ sampled i.i.d. from a distribution with mean $E[X]=\mu$. While the concentration of averages of these matrices is well-studied, the concentration of other functions…
