We obtain an upper bound on the expected supremum of a Bernoulli process indexed by the image of an index set under a uniformly Lipschitz function class in terms of properties of the index set and the function class, extending an earlier…
In the paper we pursue the analysis from the section 5 of the Talagrand's paper "Sample boundedness of stochastic processes under increment conditions." Ann. Probab. 18, No. 1, 1-49. In particular we give the proof of some Sobolev…
We say that a string of length $d$ occurs, in a Bernoulli sequence, if a success is followed by exactly $(d-1)$ failures before the next success. The counts of such $d$-strings are of interest, and in specific independent Bernoulli…
We study one-dimensional Levy processes with Levy-Khintchine exponent psi(xi^2), where psi is a complete Bernstein function. These processes are subordinate Brownian motions corresponding to subordinators, whose Levy measure has completely…
We consider finite Bernoulli convolutions with a parameter $1/2 < r < 1$ supported on a discrete point set, generically of size $2^N$. These sequences are uniformly distributed with respect to the infinite Bernoulli convolution measure…
Motivated by a question of Krzysztof Oleszkiewicz we study a notion of weak tail domination of random vectors. We show that if the dominating random variable is sufficiently regular weak tail domination implies strong tail domination. In…
We consider the asymmetric simple exclusion process (ASEP) on the integers in which the initial density at a site (the probability that it is occupied) is given by a periodic function on the positive integers. (When the function is constant…
This paper aims at semi-parametrically estimating the input process to a L\'evy-driven queue by sampling the workload process at Poisson times. We construct a method-of-moments based estimator for the L\'evy process' characteristic…
For a general free L\'evy process, we prove the existence of its higher variation processes as limits in distribution, and identify the limits in terms of the L\'evy-It\^o representation of the original process. For a general free compound…
The Bernoulli sieve is the infinite "balls-in-boxes" occupancy scheme with random frequencies $P_k=W_1... W_{k-1}(1-W_k)$, where $(W_k)_{k\in\mn}$ are independent copies of a random variable $W$ taking values in $(0,1)$. Assuming that the…
We show that shift Harnack type inequalities (in the sense of F.-Y.~Wang \cite{Wan14}) are preserved under Bochner's subordination. The proofs are based on two types of moment estimates for subordinators. As a by-product we establish moment…
We consider empirical processes generated by strictly stationary sequences of associated random variables. S. Louhichi established an invariance principle for such processes, assuming that the covariance function decays rapidly enough. We…
Consider the random quadratic form $T_n=\sum_{1 \leq u < v \leq n} a_{uv} X_u X_v$, where $((a_{uv}))_{1 \leq u, v \leq n}$ is a $\{0, 1\}$-valued symmetric matrix with zeros on the diagonal, and $X_1,$ $X_2, \ldots, X_n$ are i.i.d.…
In this paper, we consider U-statistics whose data is a strictly stationary sequence which can be expressed as a functional of an i.i.d. one. We establish a strong law of large numbers, a bounded law of the iterated logarithms and a central…
We present a novel way of realizing the Bernoulli shift on $p$ symbols on the $p$-adic integers, where $p$ is a prime. By showing that suitably small perturbations of the shift are still Bernoulli we find many "nice" maps, such as…
By using the existing sharp estimates of density function for rotationally invariant symmetric $\alpha$-stable L\'{e}vy processes and rotationally invariant symmetric truncated $\alpha$-stable L\'{e}vy processes, we obtain that Harnack…
Let $G$ be a semisimple Lie group with Haar measure $\mu$ and let $\Gamma$ be an irreducible lattice in $G$. For $g\in G$, we consider left translation $L_g$ acting on $(G\backslash\Gamma,\mu)$. We show that if $L_g$ is $K$ (which is…
Given a sequence of independent Bernoulli variables with unknown parameter $p$, and a function $f$ expressed as a power series with non-negative coefficients that sum to at most $1$, an algorithm is presented that produces a Bernoulli…
Let $X_1,...,X_n$ be i.i.d. observations, where $X_i=Y_i+\sigma Z_i$ and $Y_i$ and $Z_i$ are independent. Assume that unobservable $Y$'s are distributed as a random variable $UV,$ where $U$ and $V$ are independent, $U$ has a Bernoulli…
Let $\{\eta_i\}_{i\ge 1}$ be a sequence of dependent Bernoulli random variables. While the Poisson approximation for the distribution of $\sum_{i=1}^n\eta_i$ has been extensively studied in the literature, this paper establishes new…
