Theory and application of stochastic approximation (SA) have become increasingly relevant due in part to applications in optimization and reinforcement learning. This paper takes a new look at SA with constant step-size $\alpha>0$, defined…
The independent interval approximation of the excursion time distributions for Gaussian processes has been used in physics and engineering. A new but related approach matches the expected value of the clipped Slepian to the expected value…
We consider the Gaussian approximation for functionals of a Poisson process that are expressible as sums of region-stabilizing (determined by the points of the process within some specified regions) score functions and provide a bound on…
While max-stable processes are typically written as pointwise maxima over an infinite number of stochastic processes, in this paper, we consider a family of representations based on $\ell^p$ norms. This family includes both the construction…
We consider almost sure convergence of the SDE $dX_t=\alpha_t d t + \beta_t d W_t$ under the existence of a $C^2$-Lyapunov function $F:\mathbb R^d \to \mathbb R$. More explicitly, we show that on the event that the process stays local we…
We study the short-time asymptotical behavior of stochastic flows on \mathbb{R} in the \sup-norm. The results are stated in terms of a Gaussian process associated with the covariation of the flow. In case the Gaussian process has a…
In this article, we introduce an infinite-dimensional analogue of the $\alpha$-stable L\'evy motion, defined as a L\'evy process $Z=\{Z(t)\}_{t \geq 0}$ with values in the space $\mathbb{D}$ of c\`adl\`ag functions on $[0,1]$, equipped with…
In this paper we estimate both the Hurst and the stable indices of a H-self-similar stable process. More precisely, let $X$ be a $H$-sssi (self-similar stationary increments) symmetric $\alpha$-stable process. The process $X$ is observed at…
We discuss the problem on approximation by tight step wavelet frames on the field $\mathbb{Q}_p$ of $p$-adic numbers. Let $G_n=\{x=\sum_{k=n}^\infty x_k p^k\}$, $X$ be a set of characters. We define a step function $\lambda({\chi})$ that is…
Let $Z_1,\ldots,Z_n$ be i.i.d. isotropic random vectors in $\mathbb{R}^p$, and $T \subset \mathbb{R}^p$ be a compact set. A classical line of empirical process theory characterizes the size of the suprema of the quadratic process…
Smoothed particle hydrodynamics (SPH) has been extensively used to model high and low Reynolds number flows, free surface flows and collapse of dams, study pore-scale flow and dispersion, elasticity, and thermal problems. In different…
By using entropy and entropy production, we calculate the steady flux of some phenomena. The method we use is a competition method, $S_S/\tau+\sigma={\it maximum}$, where $S_S$ is system entropy, $\sigma$ is entropy production and $\tau$ is…
The paper studies the well-posedness and optimal error estimates of spectral finite element approximations for the boundary value problems of semi-linear elliptic SPDEs driven by white or colored Gaussian noises. The noise term is…
Let $X_H(t), t\ge 0$ be a fractional Brownian motion with Hurst index $H\in(0,1}$ and define a gamma-reflected process $W_\Ga(t)=X_H(t)-ct-\gammainf_{s\in[0,t]}\left(X_H(s)-cs \right)$, $t\ge0$ with $c>0,\gamma \in [0,1]$ two given…
Max-stable processes are a popular tool for the study of environmental extremes, and the extremal skew-$t$ process is a general model that allows for a flexible extremal dependence structure. For inference on max-stable processes with…
In the paper "The best m-term approximation and greedy algorithms" (V. N. Temlyakov), an error bound for a near best m-term approximation of a function g in L^p([0,1]^d) is provided, using a basis L^p-equivalent to the Haar system, where p…
In this paper we present a new approach towards global passive approximation in order to find a passive transfer function G(s) that is nearest in some well-defined matrix norm sense to a non-passive transfer function H(s). It is based on…
For a finite mean supercriticial Bellman-Harris process, there exist numbers $\chi_t$ (the Seneta constants) such that $\chi_t$ times the size of the population at time $t$ converges almost surely to a non-degenerate limit. We obtain a…
This work provides new results for the analysis of random sequences in terms of $\ell_p$-compressibility. The results characterize the degree in which a random sequence can be approximated by its best $k$-sparse version under different…
