Here we study the quantity $$ \tau_{n,k}:=\frac{|T_n^{(k)}(\omega_{n,k})|}{T_n^{(k)}(1)}\,, $$ where $T_n$ is the $n$-th Chebyshev polynomial of the first kind and $\omega_{n,k}$ is the largest zero of $T_n^{(k+1)}$. Since the absolute…

We study matrix and tensor denoising when the underlying signal is \textbf{not} necessarily low-rank. In the tensor setting, we observe \[ Y = X^\ast + Z \in \mathbb{R}^{p_1 \times p_2 \times p_3}, \] where $X^\ast$ is an unknown signal…

We consider the problem of Bayesian optimization (BO) in one dimension, under a Gaussian process prior and Gaussian sampling noise. We provide a theoretical analysis showing that, under fairly mild technical assumptions on the kernel, the…

We consider estimation models of the form $Y=X^*+N$, where $X^*$ is some $m$-dimensional signal we wish to recover, and $N$ is symmetrically distributed noise that may be unbounded in all but a small $\alpha$ fraction of the entries. We…
