We develop a probabilistic approach to study the volumetric and geometric properties of unit balls $\mathbb B_{q,1}^n$ of finite-dimensional Lorentz sequences spaces $\ell_{q,1}^n$. More precisely, we show that the empirical distribution of…
In this paper we provide an asymptotic theory for the symmetric version of the Kullback--Leibler (KL) divergence. We define a estimator for this divergence and study its asymptotic properties. In particular, we prove Law of Large Numbers…
We prove anti-concentration bounds for the inner product of two independent random vectors, and use these bounds to prove lower bounds in communication complexity. We show that if $A,B$ are subsets of the cube $\{\pm 1\}^n$ with $|A| \cdot…
Wide conditions are provided to guarantee asymptotic unbiasedness and L^2-consistency of the introduced estimates of the Kullback-Leibler divergence for probability measures in R^d having densities w.r.t. the Lebesgue measure. These…
In the work a characterization of difference of multivariate Gaussian measures is found on the family of centered Eucledian balls. In particular, it helps to bound corresponding Kolmogorov distance.
This work presents an infinite-dimensional generalization of the correspondence between the Kullback-Leibler and R\'enyi divergences between Gaussian measures on Euclidean space and the Alpha Log-Determinant divergences between symmetric,…
Random hyperspherical harmonics are Gaussian Laplace eigenfunctions on the unit $d$-dimensional sphere ($d\ge 2$). We study the convergence in Total Variation distance for their nonlinear statistics in the high energy limit, i.e., for…
We examine the estimation of the Kullback-Leibler (KL) divergence and the use of the goodness-of-fit test for multivariate continuous distributions. Our starting point is the maximum entropy principle for Shannon entropy: among all…
We consider the random point processes on a measure space X defined by the Gibbs measures associated to a given sequence of N-particle Hamiltonians H^{(N)}. Inspired by the method of Messer-Spohn for proving concentration properties for the…
In his 1996 paper, Talagrand highlighted that the Law of Large Numbers (LLN) for independent random variables can be viewed as a geometric property of multidimensional product spaces. This phenomenon is known as the concentration of…
A set of high dimensional points $X=\{x_1, x_2,\ldots, x_n\} \subset R^d$ in isotropic position is said to be $\delta$-anti concentrated if for every direction $v$, the fraction of points in $X$ satisfying $|\langle x_i,v \rangle |\leq…
Several classical results on boundary crossing probabilities of Brownian motion and random walks are extended to asymptotically Gaussian random fields, which include sums of i.i.d. random variables with multidimensional indices,…
The Kullback-Leibler divergence or relative entropy is an information-theoretic measure between statistical models that play an important role in measuring a distance between random variables. In the study of complex systems, random fields…
We consider $N$ classical particles interacting via the Coulomb potential in spatial dimension $d$ and in the presence of an external trap, at equilibrium at inverse temperature $\beta$. In the large $N$ limit, the particles are confined…
Massive and massless potentials play an essential role in the perturbative formulation of particle interactions. Many difficulties arise due to the indefinite metric in gauge theoretic approaches, or the increase with the spin of the UV…
In this paper, order estimates for the Kolmogorov $n$-widths of an intersection of an arbitrary family of balls $\nu_\alpha B^{\overline{k}}_{\overline{p}_\alpha}$ in $l_q^k$ are obtained for $1\le q\le 2$, $n\le \frac k2$. Here…
The solution space of many classical optimization problems breaks up into clusters which are extensively distant from one another in the Hamming metric. Here, we show that an analogous quantum clustering phenomenon takes place in the ground…
In this paper, explicit error bounds are derived in the approximation of rank $k$ projections of certain $n$-dimensional random vectors by standard $k$-dimensional Gaussian random vectors. The bounds are given in terms of $k$, $n$, and a…
The purpose of this paper is to examine the sampling problem through Euler discretization, where the potential function is assumed to be a mixture of locally smooth distributions and weakly dissipative. We introduce $\alpha_{G}$-mixture…
