The classical version of B\'ezout's Theorem gives an integer-valued count of the intersection points of hypersurfaces in projective space over an algebraically closed field. Using work of Kass and Wickelgren, we prove a version of…
This paper deals with two main topics related to Diophantine approximation. Firstly, we show that if a point on an algebraic variety is approximable by rational vectors to a sufficiently large degree, the approximating vectors must lie in…
We give direct and inverse theorems for the weighted approximation of functions with inner singularities by combinations of Bernstein polynomials.
We extend to Lipschitz continuous functionals either of the true paths or of the Euler scheme with decreasing step of a wide class of Brownian ergodic diffusions, the Central Limit Theorems formally established for their marginal empirical…
In recent years post-Newtonian approximations for isolated slowly-moving systems in general relativity have been studied by means of matched asymptotic expansions. A paper by Poujade & Blanchet in 2002 made great progress by effectively…
We establish arithmetical properties and provide essential bounds for bi-sequences of approximation coefficients associated with the natural extension of maps, leading to continued fraction-like expansions. These maps are realized as the…
Our main theorem is an extension of the well-known Mizoguchi-Takahaashi's fixed point theorem [N. Mizogochi and W. Takahashi, Fixed point theorems for multi-valued mappings on complete metric space, {\it J. Math. Anal. Appl.} 141 (1989)…
Self consistent transfer operators arise naturally in the study of mean-field coupled dynamical systems and are closely related to kinetic PDEs such as the Vlasov equation. Despite substantial progress on existence and uniqueness of fixed…
We resolve problems posed by Kesten and Erd\"os-Sz\"usz-Tur\'an on probabilistic Diophantine approximation via methods of homogeneous dynamics. Our methods allows us to generalize the problem to the setting of general measure-valued…
Let $\langle x\rangle$ denote the distance from $x\in\mathbb{R}$ to the set of integers $\mathbb{Z}$. The Littlewood Conjecture states that for all pairs $(\alpha,\beta)\in\mathbb{R}^{2}$ the product $q\langle q\alpha\rangle\langle…
A continuous-time random walk in the quarter plane with homogeneous transition rates is considered. Given a non-negative reward function on the state space, we are interested in the expected stationary performance. Since a direct derivation…
In this paper we present an inexact proximal point method for variational inequality problem on Hadamard manifolds and study its convergence properties. The proposed algorithm is inexact in two sense. First, each proximal subproblem is…
We present asymptotic results for the regression-adjusted version of approximate Bayesian computation introduced by Beaumont(2002). We show that for an appropriate choice of the bandwidth, regression adjustment will lead to a posterior…
We show that for almost all points on any analytic curve on R^{k} which is not contained in a proper affine subspace, the Dirichlet's theorem on simultaneous approximation, as well as its dual result for simultaneous approximation of linear…
Preferential sampling is a common feature in geostatistics and occurs when the locations to be sampled are chosen based on information about the phenomena under study. In this case, point pattern models are commonly used as the probability…
Approximation in this paper is of vectors on the unit $d$-cube by the projection of integer lattice points onto the same cube. We define badly approximable vectors on a rational quadratic variety and show that sets of these vectors, which…
Doubly intractable distributions arise in many settings, for example in Markov models for point processes and exponential random graph models for networks. Bayesian inference for these models is challenging because they involve intractable…
We obtain a Bernstein type Gaussian concentration inequality for martingales. Our inequality improves the Azuma-Hoeffding inequality for moderate deviations $x$. Following the work of McDiarmid (1989), Talagrand (1996) and Boucheron, Lugosi…
We develop techniques for determining the exact asymptotic speed of convergence in the multidimensional normal approximation of smooth functions of Gaussian fields. As a by-product, our findings yield exact limits and often give rise to…
We consider the continued fraction expansion of real numbers under the action of a non-uniform lattice in PSL(2,R) and prove metric relations between the convergents and a natural geometric notion of good approximations.
