The state-of-the art proof of a global inf-sup condition on mixed finite element schemes does not allow for an analysis of truly indefinite, second-order linear elliptic PDEs. This paper, therefore, first analyses a nonconforming finite…
We develop a method to compute $H^2$-conforming finite element approximations in both two and three space dimensions using readily available finite element spaces. This is accomplished by deriving a novel, equivalent mixed variational…

We apply recent ideas about complexity and randomness to the philosophy of laws and chances. We develop two ways to use algorithmic randomness to characterize probabilistic laws of nature. The first, a generative chance* law, employs a…

Temporal Point Processes (TPP) with partial likelihoods involving a latent structure often entail an intractable marginalization, thus making inference hard. We propose a novel approach to Maximum Likelihood Estimation (MLE) involving…
The purpose of this work is to introduce and analyze a numerical scheme to efficiently solve boundary value problems involving the spectral fractional Laplacian. The approach is based on a reformulation of the problem posed on a…
Finite element approximation to a decoupled formulation for the quad--curl problem is studied in this paper. The difficulty of constructing elements with certain conformity to the quad--curl problems has been greatly reduced. For convex…
The article concerns hybrid combinations of empirical and parametric likelihood functions. Combining the two allows classical parametric likelihood to be crucially modified via the nonparametric counterpart, making possible model…
An adaptive finite element method is presented for the elastic scattering of a time-harmonic plane wave by a periodic surface. First, the unbounded physical domain is truncated into a bounded computational domain by introducing the…
In this short note we introduce a new metric on certain finite groups. It leads to a class of groups for which the element orders satisfy an interesting inequality. This extends the class CP_2 studied in our previous paper [16].
Second-order partial differential equations in non-divergence form are considered. Equations of this kind typically arise as subproblems for the solution of Hamilton-Jacobi-Bellman equations in the context of stochastic optimal control, or…
We use the Stein-Chen method to study the extremal behaviour of the problem of extremes for univariate and bivariate geometric laws. We obtain a rate for the convergence to the Gumbel distribution of the law of the maximum of i. i. d.…
We present the generalization of recently introduced observables for the studies of correlated fluctuations of different anisotropic flow amplitudes, dubbed Symmetric Cumulants. We introduce a new set of higher order observables and outline…
The paper extends the formulation of a 2D geometrically exact beam element proposed in our previous paper [1] to curved elastic beams. This formulation is based on equilibrium equations in their integrated form, combined with the kinematic…
This article discusses the problem of estimation of parameters in finite mixtures when the mixture components are assumed to be symmetric and to come from the same location family. We refer to these mixtures as semi-parametric because no…
In this paper, we consider the probability that a randomly chosen automorphism of a finite group fixes a randomly chosen element of a subgroup of that group. We obtain several new results as well as generalizations and improvements of some…
This paper is concerned with near-optimal approximation of a given function $f \in L_2([0,1])$ with elements of a polynomially enriched wavelet frame, a so-called quarklet frame. Inspired by $hp$-approximation techniques of Binev, we use…
