We study the problem of testing discrete distributions with a focus on the high probability regime. Specifically, given samples from one or more discrete distributions, a property $\mathcal{P}$, and parameters $0< \epsilon, \delta <1$, we…
For any $p\in[1,\infty)$, we prove that the set of simple functions taking at most $k$ different values is proximinal in B\"ochner spaces $L^p(X)$ whenever $X$ is a dual Banach space with $w^*$-sequentially compact unit ball. With…
Given an $N$-dimensional subspace $X$ of $L_p([0,1])$, we consider the problem of choosing $M$-sampling points which may be used to discretely approximate the $L_p$ norm on the subspace. We are particularly interested in knowing when the…
We establish that for every function $u \in L^1_\mathrm{loc}(\Omega)$ whose distributional Laplacian $\Delta u$ is a signed Borel measure in an open set $\Omega$ in $\mathbb{R}^{N}$, the distributional gradient $\nabla u$ is differentiable…
The article studies the almost surely asymptotics of extreme values $\bar{\xi}_n = \max_{1\leq i \leq n} \xi_i$, where $ \xi , \xi_1 , \xi_2 , \ldots$ are discrete identically distributed random variables. One of the main results on this…
A consequence of de Finetti's representation theorem is that for every infinite sequence of exchangeable 0-1 random variables $(X_k)_{k\geq1}$, there exists a probability measure $\mu$ on the Borel sets of $[0,1]$ such that $\bar X_n =…
In this paper, by using continuous Hilbert transform and maximal operator boundedness property in the variable Lebesgue space $ L^{p(\cdot)}(\mathbb{R}) $ we show that the discrete Hilbert transform is bounded in the variable discrete…
Consider a discrete-time martingale, and let $V^2$ be its normalized quadratic variation. As $V^2$ approaches 1, and provided that some Lindeberg condition is satisfied, the distribution of the rescaled martingale approaches the Gaussian…
We study $L^p$-Sobolev improving for averaging operators $A_{\gamma}$ given by convolution with a compactly supported smooth density $\mu_{\gamma}$ on a non-degenerate curve. In particular, in 4 dimensions we show that $A_{\gamma}$ maps…
Let $1<p<\infty$. We prove that there exists an $\varepsilon_p>0$ such that for each $f\in L^p(\mathbb{R})$, the centered Hardy-Littlewood maximal operator $M$ on $\mathbb{R}$ satisfies the lower bound $\|Mf\|_{L^p(\mathbb{R})}\ge…
Consider the set of Borel probability measures on $\mathbf{R}^k$ and endow it with the topology of weak convergence. We show that the subset of all probability measures which belong to the domain of attraction of some multivariate extreme…
We put forward a novel calibration of p values, the "Adaptive Robust Lower Bound" (ARLB) which maps p values into approximations of posterior probabilities taking into account the effect of sample sizes. We build on the Robust Lower Bound…
Subsequent to our recent work on Fourier spectrum characterization of Hardy spaces $H^p(\mathbb{R})$ for the index range $1\leq p\leq \infty,$ in this paper we prove further results on rational Approximation, integral representation and…
Let $\msp$ be a purely non-atomic measure space, and let $1 < p < \infty$. If $\weakLp\msp$ is isomorphic, as a Banach space, to $\weakLp\mspp$ for some purely atomic measure space $\mspp$, then there is a measurable partition $\Omega =…
Let $\alpha_n(\cdot)=P\bigl(X_{n+1}\in\cdot\mid X_1,\ldots,X_n\bigr)$ be the predictive distributions of a sequence $(X_1,X_2,\ldots)$ of $p$-dimensional random vectors. Suppose $$\alpha_n= \mathcal{N} _p (M_n,Q_n)$$ where…
Given samples from an unknown distribution $p$, is it possible to distinguish whether $p$ belongs to some class of distributions $\mathcal{C}$ versus $p$ being far from every distribution in $\mathcal{C}$? This fundamental question has…
In this short note we prove the result stated in the title; that is, for every $p>0$ there exists an infinite dimensional closed linear subspace of $L_{p}[0,1]$ every nonzero element of which does not belong to $\bigcup\limits_{q>p}…
Borell's inequality states the existence of a positive absolute constant $C>0$ such that for every $1\leq p\leq q$ $$ \left(\mathbb E|\langle X, e_n\rangle|^p\right)^\frac{1}{p}\leq\left(\mathbb E|\langle X,…
We study learning problems in which the underlying class is a bounded subset of $L_p$ and the target $Y$ belongs to $L_p$. Previously, minimax sample complexity estimates were known under such boundedness assumptions only when $p=\infty$.…
Suppose $a_n$ is a real, nonnegative sequence that does not increase exponentially. For any $p<1$ we contruct a Lebesgue measurable set $E \subseteq \mathbb{R}$ which has measure at least $p$ in any unit interval and which contains no…
