We present a novel approach to estimating discrete distributions with (potentially) infinite support in the total variation metric. In a departure from the established paradigm, we make no structural assumptions whatsoever on the sampling…

We consider the passage time problem for L\'evy processes, emphasising heavy tailed cases. Results are obtained under quite mild assumptions, namely, drift to $-\infty$ a.s. of the process, possibly at a linear rate (the finite mean case),…

We prove that the characteristic function of the quicksort distribution is exponentially decreasing at infinity. As a consequence it follows that the density of the quicksort distribution can be analytically extended to the vicinity of the…

We characterize the subexponential densities on $(0,\infty)$ for compound Poisson distributions on $[0,\infty)$ with absolutely continuous L\'evy measures. As a corollary, we show that the class of all subexponential probability density…

Non-closedness of subexponentiality by the convolution operation is well-known. We go a step further and show that subexponentiality and non-subexponentiality are generally changeable by the convolution. We also give several conditions, by…

Recently, anomalous superdiffusion of ultra cold 87Rb atoms in an optical lattice has been observed along with a fat-tailed, L\'evy type, spatial distribution. The anomalous exponents were found to depend on the depth of the optical…

For discretisations of hyperbolic conservation laws, mimicking properties of operators or solutions at the continuous (differential equation) level discretely has resulted in several successful methods. While well-posedness for nonlinear…

Different questions related with analysis of extreme values and outliers arise frequently in practice. To exclude extremal observations and outliers is not a good decision because they contain important information about the observed…

The L\'evy, jumping process, defined in terms of the jumping size distribution and the waiting time distribution, is considered. The jumping rate depends on the process value. The fractional diffusion equation, which contains the variable…

We propose a simple phenomenological model exhibiting on-off intermittency over an extended range of control parameter. We find that the distribution of the 'off' periods has as a power-law tail with an exponent varying continuously between…

Rate of convergence is studied for a diffusion process on the half line with a non-sticky reflection to a heavy-tailed 1D invariant distribution which density on the half line has a polynomial decay at infinity. Starting from a standard…

In this article, we introduce Mittag-Leffler L\'evy process and provide two alternative representations of this process. First, in terms of Laplace transform of the marginal densities and next as a subordinated stochastic process. Both…

Motivated by real-world machine learning applications, we analyze approximations to the non-asymptotic fundamental limits of statistical classification. In the binary version of this problem, given two training sequences generated according…

In this work we give a complete description to the asymptotic behaviors of exponential functionals of L\'evy processes and divide them into five different types according to their convergence rates. Not only their exact convergence speeds…

In this article densities (and their derivatives) of subordinators and inverse subordinators are considered. Under minor restrictions, generally milder than the existing in the literature, using a useful modification of the saddle point…

We formalize the tail redundancy of a collection of distributions over a countably infinite alphabet, and show that this fundamental quantity characterizes the asymptotic per-symbol redundancy of universally compressing sequences generated…

We consider a two dimensional reflecting random walk on the nonnegative integer quadrant. This random walk is assumed to be skip free in the direction to the boundary of the quadrant, but may have unbounded jumps in the opposite direction,…

We study the exponential functional $\int_0^\infty e^{-\xi_{s-}} \, d\eta_s$ of two one-dimensional independent L\'evy processes $\xi$ and $\eta$, where $\eta$ is a subordinator. In particular, we derive an integro-differential equation for…

We study the distributional and asymptotic properties of the supremum of Brownian motion with drift and exponential resetting. We obtain an explicit renewal-type formula for the distribution of the supremum and then derive an approximation…

We explore some properties of the conditional distribution of an i.i.d. sample under large exceedances of its sum. Thresholds for the asymptotic independance of the summands are observed, in contrast with the classical case when the…
