We consider a nonparametric heteroscedastic time series regression model and suggest testing procedures to detect changes in the conditional variance function. The tests are based on a sequential marked empirical process and thus combine…
This paper derives asymptotic theory for Breitung's (2002, Journal of Econometrics 108, 343-363) nonparameteric variance ratio unit root test when applied to regression residuals. The test requires neither the specification of the…
In this paper we test the composite hypothesis that lifetimes follow an exponential distribution based on observed randomly right censored data. Testing this hypothesis is complicated by the presence of this censoring, due to the fact that…
We consider a nonlinear parabolic equation with an exponential nonlinearity which is critical with respect to the growth of the nonlinearity and the regularity of the initial data. After showing the equivalence of the notions of weak and…
We consider the problem of detecting the presence of a submatrix with larger-than-usual values in a large data matrix. This problem was considered in (Butucea and Ingster, 2013) under a one-parameter exponential family, and one of the test…
After variable selection, standard inferential procedures for regression parameters may not be uniformly valid; there is no finite-sample size at which a standard test is guaranteed to approximately attain its nominal size. This problem is…
In many observational studies, the interest is in the effect of treatment on bad, aberrant outcomes rather than the average outcome. For such settings, the traditional approach is to define a dichotomous outcome indicating aberration from a…

We study adversarial binary hypothesis testing under memory constraints. The test is a time-invariant randomized finite state machine (FSM) with S states. Associated with each hypothesis is a set of distributions. Given the hypothesis, the…
We consider upper exponential bounds for the probability of the event that an absolute deviation of sample mean from mathematical expectation p is bigger comparing with some ordered level epsilon. These bounds include 2 coefficients {alpha,…
This paper explores the exponential stability of two nonlinear wave equations coupled through their velocities. The analysis is divided into two main cases. First, we consider a system where one equation is damped, while the other…
We study stability of solutions for a randomly driven and degenerately damped version of the Lorenz '63 model. Specifically, we prove that when damping is absent in one of the temperature components, the system possesses a unique invariant…
Throughout the last decade, random forests have established themselves as among the most accurate and popular supervised learning methods. While their black-box nature has made their mathematical analysis difficult, recent work has…

Randomization tests rely on simple data transformations and possess an appealing robustness property. In addition to being finite-sample valid if the data distribution is invariant under the transformation, these tests can be asymptotically…
