We compute some dependence coefficients for the stationary Markov chain whose transition kernel is the Perron-Frobenius operator of an expanding map $T$ of $[0, 1]$ with a neutral fixed point. We use these coefficients to prove a central…
Maximum mean discrepancies (MMDs) like the kernel Stein discrepancy (KSD) have grown central to a wide range of applications, including hypothesis testing, sampler selection, distribution approximation, and variational inference. In each…
In this article, we consider Bergman kernels related to modules at boundary points on Stein manifolds, and obtain a log-subharmonicity property of the Bergman kernels. As applications, we obtain a lower estimate of weighted $L^2$ integrals…
This paper establishes limit theorems and quantitative statistical stability for a class of piecewise partially hyperbolic maps that are not necessarily continuous nor locally invertible. By employing a flexible functional-analytic…
We develop the theory of momentum map for the Maxwell-Lorentz equations with spinning extended charged particle. This theory is indispensable for the study of long-time behaviour and radiation of the solitons of this system. The development…
Leading plus next-to leading log results for the Regge limit of massless Yang-Mills theories are reproduced by reggeon diagrams in which the Regge slope $\alpha' \to 0$ and reggeon amplitudes satisfy Ward identity constraints at zero…
New bounds for the $k$-th order derivatives of the solutions of the normal and multivariate normal Stein equations are obtained. Our general order bounds involve fewer derivatives of the test function than those in the existing literature.…
In recent works - both experimental and theoretical - it has been shown how to use computational geometry to efficently construct approximations to the optimal transport map between two given probability measures on Euclidean space, by…
We revisit the central limit theorem for integrated periodograms, equivalently for Toeplitz quadratic forms of stationary Gaussian sequences. Under a regular-variation assumption allowing long-memory singularities and slowly varying…
The existence and multiplicity and nonexistence of nontrivial radial convex solutions of systems of Monge-Amp\`ere equations are established with superlinearity or sublinearity assumptions for an appropriately chosen parameter. The proof of…
We derive Cordes-Nirenberg type results for nonlocal elliptic integro-differential equations with deforming kernels comparable to sections of a convex solution of a Monge-Amp\`ere equation. Under a natural integrability assumption on the…
We study the moment maps of a smooth projective toric variety. In particular, we characterize when the moment map coming from the quotient construction is equal to a weighted Fubini-Study moment map. This leads to an investigation into…
A continuous map from R^m to R^N or from C^m to C^N is called k-regular if the images of any $k$ points are linearly independent. Given integers m and k a problem going back to Chebyshev and Borsuk is to determine the minimal value of N for…
We give the solution of the Monge-Kantorovitch problem on the Wiener space for the singular Wasserstein metric which is defined with respect to the distance of the underlying Cameron-Martin space. We show, under the hypothesis that this…
Topological data analysis offers a rich source of valuable information to study vision problems. Yet, so far we lack a theoretically sound connection to popular kernel-based learning techniques, such as kernel SVMs or kernel PCA. In this…
We present three novel forms of the Monge-Ampere equation, which is used, e.g., in image processing and in reconstruction of mass transportation in the primordial Universe. The central role in this paper is played by our Fourier integral…
We construct new examples of Monge-Amp\`{e}re metrics with polyhedral singular structures, motivated by problems related to the optimal transport of point masses and to mirror symmetry. We also analyze the stability of the singular…
We discuss recent developments regarding the use of kernels in complex Langevin simulations. In particular, we outline how a kernel can be used to solve the problem of wrong convergence in a simple toy model. Since conventional correctness…
On complete, non-compact manifolds and infinite graphs, Faber-Krahn inequalities have been used to estimate the rate of decay of the heat kernel. We develop this technique in the setting of finite Markov chains, proving upper and lower…
We investigate if kernel regularization methods can achieve minimax convergence rates over a source condition regularity assumption for the target function. These questions have been considered in past literature, but only under specific…
