Let $X$ be a centered Gaussian random variable in a separable Hilbert space ${\mathbb H}$ with covariance operator $\Sigma.$ We study a problem of estimation of a smooth functional of $\Sigma$ based on a sample $X_1,\dots ,X_n$ of $n$…

Fix an integer $h \geq 2$, and let $b_1, \ldots, b_h$ be (not necessarily distinct) positive integers with $\gcd(b_1, \ldots, b_h) = 1$. For any subset $A \subseteq \mathbb{N}$, let $r_A(n)$ denote the number of solutions $(k_1, \ldots,…

We study the asymptotic behavior of three classes of nonlocal functionals in complete metric spaces equipped with a doubling measure and supporting a Poincar\'e inequality. We show that the limits of these nonlocal functionals are…

Let $X$ be a rearrangement-invariant space over a non-atomic $\sigma$-finite measure space $(\mathscr{R},\mu)$ and let $\alpha\in(0,\infty)$. We define the functional \begin{equation*} \|f\|_{X^{\langle \alpha \rangle}} =…

Recently, Deshpande et al. introduced a new measure of the complexity of a Boolean function. We call this measure the "goal value" of the function. The goal value of $f$ is defined in terms of a monotone, submodular utility function…

We give a "regularity lemma" for degree-d polynomial threshold functions (PTFs) over the Boolean cube {-1,1}^n. This result shows that every degree-d PTF can be decomposed into a constant number of subfunctions such that almost all of the…

We study the non-parametric estimation of the value ${\theta}(f )$ of a linear functional evaluated at an unknown density function f with support on $R_+$ based on an i.i.d. sample with multiplicative measurement errors. The proposed…

Let $X$ be a (real or complex) rearrangement-in\-va\-riant function space on $\Om$ (where $\Om = [0,1]$ or $\Om \subseteq \bbN$) whose norm is not proportional to the $L_2$-norm. Let $H$ be a separable Hilbert space. We characterize…

Let $\A=\{a_1<a_2<a_3.....<a_n<...\}$ be an infinite sequence of integers and let $R_2(n)=|\{(i,j):\ \ a_i+a_j=n;\ \ a_i,a_j\in \A;\ \ i\le j\}|$. We define $S_k=\s_{l=1}^k(R_2(2l)-R_2(2l+1))$. We prove that, if $L^{\infty}$ norm of…

In this paper we present results on asymptotic characteristics of multivariate function classes in the uniform norm. Our main interest is the approximation of functions with mixed smoothness parameter not larger than $1/2$. Our focus will…

In this paper we define a new space, $LH(X,Y)$, consisting of functions $f\in X \subset Y$ (with $X,Y$ normed spaces) such that $\| f \|_X \equiv \| f \|_Y$ (where $\| \cdot \|_X$ is any norm on $X$, in general not the norm induced by $\|…

We show that given a homeomorphism $f:G\rightarrow\Omega$ where $G$ is a open subset of $\mathbb{R}^2$ and $\Omega$ is a open subset of a $2$-Ahlfors regular metric measure space supporting a weak $(1,1)$-Poincar\'e inequality, it holds…

We define a switch function to be a function from an interval to $\{1,-1\}$ with a finite number of sign changes. (Special cases are the Walsh functions.) By a topological argument, we prove that, given $n$ real-valued functions, $f_1,…

We show that if A is a subset of F_2^n and |A+A| < K|A| then A is contained in a subspace of size at most 2^{O(K^{3/2}log K)}|A|. This improves on the previous best of 2^{O(K^2)}.

Suppose that Fourier transform of a function f is zero on the interval [-a,a]. We prove that the lower density of sign changes of f is at least a/pi, provided that f is a locally integrable temperate distribution in the sense of Beurling,…

This paper studies smoothing properties of the local fractional maximal operator, which is defined in a proper subdomain of the Euclidean space. We prove new pointwise estimates for the weak gradient of the maximal function, which imply…

We investigate the spectrum for partial sums of m position (or gaussian) operators on monotone Fock space based on $\ell^2(\mathbb{N})$. In the basic case of the first consecutive operators, we prove it coincides with the support of the…

For a Borel probability measure $\mu$ on $\mathbb{R}^{n}$, it is called a spectral measure if the Hilbert space $L^{2}(\mu)$ admits an orthogonal basis of exponential functions. In this paper, we study the spectrality of fractal measures…
