We establish presumably optimal rates of normal convergence with respect to the Kolmogorov distance for a large class of geometric functionals of marked Poisson and binomial point processes on general metric spaces. The rates are valid…
First-order stochastic methods are the state-of-the-art in large-scale machine learning optimization owing to efficient per-iteration complexity. Second-order methods, while able to provide faster convergence, have been much less explored…
We prove a fractional version of Poincar\'e inequalities in the context of $\R^n$ endowed with a fairly general measure. Namely we prove a control of an $L^2$ norm by a non local quantity, which plays the role of the gradient in the…
Second-order self-force computations, which will be essential in modeling extreme-mass-ratio inspirals, involve two major new difficulties that were not present at first order. One is the problem of large scales, discussed in [Phys. Rev. D…
The Rogers-Shephard and Zhang's projection inequalities are two reverse, affine isoperimetric-type inequalities for convex bodies. Following a classical work by Schneider, both inequalities have been extended to the so-called $m$th-order…
Let $G$ be a countable discrete group with an orthogonal representation $\alpha$ on a real Hilbert space $H$. We prove $L_p$ Poincar\'e inequalities for the group measure space $L_\infty(\Omega_H,\gamma)\rtimes G$, where both the group…
We outline a general procedure on how to apply random positive linear operators in nonparametric estimation. As a consequence, we give explicit confidence bands and intervals for a distribution function $F$ concentrated on $[0,1]$ by means…
In the setting of a complete, doubling metric measure space $(X,d,\mu)$ supporting a $(1,1)$-Poincar\'e inequality, we show that for all $0<\theta<1$, the following fractional Poincar\'e inequality holds for all balls $B$ and locally…
We construct geodesics in the Wasserstein space of probability measure along which all the measures have an upper bound on their density that is determined by the densities of the endpoints of the geodesic. Using these geodesics we show…
We observe some higher order Poincare-type inequalities on a closed manifold, which is inspired by Hurwitz's proof of the Wirtinger's inequality using Fourier theory. We then give some geometric implication of these inequalities by applying…
The present study introduces the notions of statistical convergence of order $\alpha$ and strong $p-$ Ces\`{a}ro summability of order $\alpha$ in partial metric spaces. Also, we examine the inclusion relations between these concepts. In…
We present a probabilistic interpretation of several functional isoperimetric inequalities within the class of $p$-concave functions, building on random models for such functions introduced by P. Pivovarov and J. Rebollo-Bueno. First, we…
Estimators derived from score functions that are not the likelihood are in wide use in practical and modern applications. Their regularization is often carried by pseudo-posterior estimation, equivalently by adding penalty to the score…
Second-order optimality conditions for vector nonlinear programming problems with inequality constraints are studied in this paper. We introduce a new second-order constraint qualification, which includes Mangasarian-Fromovitz constraint…
We consider some measure-theoretic properties of functions belonging to a Sobolev-type class on metric measure spaces that admit a Poincar\'e inequality and are equipped with a doubling measure. The properties we have selected to study are…
This work explores and develops elements of Stein's method of approximation, in the infinitely divisible setting, and its connections to functional analysis. It is mainly concerned with multivariate self-decomposable laws without finite…
This paper studies second-order methods for nonconvex-strongly-convex bilevel optimization. We propose a novel fully second-order bilevel approximation method (FSBA) that achieves an iteration complexity of…
We discuss situations where perturbing a probability measure on $\mathbb{R}^n$ does not deteriorate its Poincar\'e constant by much. A particular example is the symmetric exponential measure in $\mathbb{R}^n$, even log-concave perturbations…
Our main result is an estimate for a sharp maximal function, which implies a Keith-Zhong type self-improvement property of Poincar\'e inequalities related to differentiable structures on metric measure spaces. As an application, we give…
For the task of sampling from a density $\pi \propto \exp(-V)$ on $\mathbb{R}^d$, where $V$ is possibly non-convex but $L$-gradient Lipschitz, we prove that averaged Langevin Monte Carlo outputs a sample with $\varepsilon$-relative Fisher…
