Kolmogorov's exponential inequalities are basic tools for studying the strong limit theorems such as the classical laws of the iterated logarithm for both independent and dependent random variables. This paper establishes the Kolmogorov…

We introduce a class of convex equivolume partitions. Expected $L_2-$discrepancy are discussed under these partitions. There are two main results. First, under this kind of partitions, we generate random point sets with smaller expected…

We show that for $p\geq 1$ and $r\geq 1$ the $p$-th moment of the $l_r$-norm of a log-concave random vector is comparable to the sum of the first moment and the weak $p$-th moment up to a constant proportional to $r$. This extends the…

We obtain large and moderate deviation estimates, as well as concentration inequalities, for a class of nonuniformly expanding maps with stretched exponential decay of correlations. In the large deviation regime, we also exhibit examples…

We formulate and discuss a conjecture concerning lower bounds for norms of log-concave vectors, which generalizes the classical Sudakov minoration principle for Gaussian vectors. We show that the conjecture holds for some special classes of…

Probability boxes, also known as $p$-boxes, correspond to sets of probability distributions bounded by a pair of distribution functions. They fall into the class of models known as imprecise probabilities. One of the central questions…

We discuss interplays between log-concave functions and log-concave sequences. We prove a Bernstein-type theorem, which characterizes the Laplace transform of log-concave measures on the half-line in terms of log-concavity of the…

In this note, we derive concentration inequalities for random vectors with subGaussian norm (a generalization of both subGaussian random vectors and norm bounded random vectors), which are tight up to logarithmic factors.

The special relativistic generalization of isotropic regularized kappa distributions is derived and compared to that of the original Olbertian (or standard) kappa distributions. It is demonstrated that for the latter the kappa parameter is…

It is a basic property of the entropy in statistical physics that is concave as a function of energy. The analog of this in representation theory would be the concavity of the logarithm of the multiplicity of an irreducible representation…
