This paper firstly presents the necessary and sufficient conditions for a kind of discrete-time robust stochastic optimal control problem with convex control domains. As it is an "inf sup problem", the classical variational method is…
Let S_n=X_1+...+X_n be a sum of independent symmetric random variables such that |X_{i}|\leq 1. Denote by W_n=\epsilon_{1}+...+\epsilon_{n} a sum of independent random variables such that \prob{\eps_i = \pm 1} = 1/2. We prove that…
Suppose that the (normalised) partial sum of a stationary sequence converges to a standard normal random variable. Given sufficiently moments, when do we have a rate of convergence of $n^{-1/2}$ in the uniform metric, in other words, when…
We are interested in existence results for second order differential inclusions, involving finite number of unilateral constraints in an abstract framework. These constraints are described by a set-valued operator, more precisely a proximal…

It is shown that the sharp constant in the Hardy-Sobolev-Maz'ya inequality on the three dimensional upper half space is given by the Sobolev constant. This is achieved by a duality argument relating the problem to a Hardy-Littlewood-Sobolev…
