We derive an upper bound for the mean of the supremum of the empirical process indexed by a class of functions that are known to have variance bounded by a small constant $\delta$. The bound is expressed in the uniform entropy integral of…

Jensen's inequality is ubiquitous in measure and probability theory, statistics, machine learning, information theory and many other areas of mathematics and data science. It states that, for any convex function $f\colon K \to \mathbb{R}$…

In this paper, we derive new properties of the Mertens function and discuss a likely upper bound of the absolute value of the Mertens function $\sqrt{\log{x!}}>|M(x)|$ when $x>1$. Using this likely bound we show that we have a sufficient…

We derive a formula which is a lower bound on the dimension of trivariate splines on a tetrahedral partition which are continuously differentiable of order $r$ in large enough degree. While this formula may fail to be a lower bound on the…

This paper deals with the Neumann eigenvalue problem for the Hermite operator defined in a convex, possibly unbounded, planar domain $\Omega$, having one axis of symmetry passing through the origin. We prove a sharp lower bound for the…

In this paper, we consider the existence of solutions of the following nonhomogeneous fractional $p(x,.)$-Laplacian Dirichlet problem: \begin{equation*} \left\{\begin{aligned} \Big(-\Delta_{p(x,.)}\Big)^s u (x)&=f(x, u) &\text { in }&…

This is an essay on potential theory for geometric plurisubharmonic functions. It begins with a given closed subset G of the Grassmann bundle $G(p,TX)$ of tangent $p$-planes to a riemannian manifold $X$. This determines a nonlinear partial…

Bounds on the log partition function are important in a variety of contexts, including approximate inference, model fitting, decision theory, and large deviations analysis. We introduce a new class of upper bounds on the log partition…

We obtain the optimal proxy variance for the sub-Gaussianity of Beta distribution, thus proving upper bounds recently conjectured by Elder (2016). We provide different proof techniques for the symmetrical (around its mean) case and the…

Assuming the Riemann hypothesis, we obtain upper and lower bounds for moments of the Riemann zeta-function averaged over the extreme values between its zeros on the critical line. Our bounds are very nearly the same order of magnitude. The…
