Let $\cP_n$ be the space of homogeneous polynomials of degree $n$ on $\bbR^{m+1}$. We consider the asymptotic behavior of some coefficients relating to the decomposition of $\cP_n$ into the sum of $\SO(m+1)$-irreducible components. Using…

In this paper, we study the estimates of resolvents $ R(\lambda,\mathcal{L}_{\varepsilon})=(\mathcal{L}_{\varepsilon}-\lambda I)^{-1} $, where $$ \mathcal{L}_{\varepsilon}=-\operatorname{div}(A(x/\varepsilon)\nabla) $$ is a family of second…

The celebrated Dvoretzky theorem asserts that every $N$-dimensional convex body admits central sections of dimension $d = \Omega(\log N)$, which is nearly spherical. For many instances of convex bodies, typically unit balls with respect to…

We build confidence balls for the common density $s$ of a real valued sample $X_1,...,X_n$. We use resampling methods to estimate the projection of $s$ onto finite dimensional linear spaces and a model selection procedure to choose an…

We consider the problem of approximating an unknown function $u\in L^2(D,\rho)$ from its evaluations at given sampling points $x^1,\dots,x^n\in D$, where $D\subset \mathbb{R}^d$ is a general domain and $\rho$ is a probability measure. The…

For any constant $d$ and parameter $\varepsilon > 0$, we show the existence of (roughly) $1/\varepsilon^d$ orderings on the unit cube $[0,1)^d$, such that any two points $p,q\in [0,1)^d$ that are close together under the Euclidean metric…

We study approximation in the unit interval by rational numbers whose numerators are selected randomly with certain probabilities. Previous work showed that an analogue of Khintchine's Theorem holds in a similar random model and raised the…

Spectral approximation by polynomials on the unit ball is studied in the frame of the Sobolev spaces $W^{s}_p(\ball)$, $1<p<\infty$. The main results give sharp estimates on the order of approximation by polynomials in the Sobolev spaces…

Many scientifically well-motivated statistical models in natural, engineering, and environmental sciences are specified through a generative process. However, in some cases, it may not be possible to write down the likelihood for these…

We describe a maximum entropy approach for computing volumes and counting integer points in polyhedra. To estimate the number of points from a particular set X in R^n in a polyhedron P in R^n, by solving a certain entropy maximization…

We present an algorithm for computing $F_p$, the $p$th moment of an $n$-dimensional frequency vector of a data stream, for $2 < p < \log (n) $, to within $1\pm \epsilon$ factors, $\epsilon \in [n^{-1/p},1]$ with high constant probability.…

For each $p \in (0,2]$, we present a randomized algorithm that returns an $\epsilon$-approximation of the $p$th frequency moment of a data stream $F_p = \sum_{i = 1}^n \abs{f_i}^p$. The algorithm requires space $O(\epsilon^{-2} \log…

The purpose of this paper is to extend the result of arXiv:1810.00823 to mixed H\"older functions on $[0,1]^d$ for all $d \ge 1$. In particular, we prove that by sampling an $\alpha$-mixed H\"older function $f : [0,1]^d \rightarrow…

Let $\xi=(\xi_t)$ be a locally finite $(2,\beta)$-superprocess in $\RR^d$ with $\beta<1$ and $d>2/\beta$. Then for any fixed $t>0$, the random measure $\xi_t$ can be a.s. approximated by suitably normalized restrictions of Lebesgue measure…

In order to study how well a finite group might be generated by repeated random multiplications, P. Diaconis suggested the following urn model. An urn contains some balls labeled by elements which generate a group G. Two are drawn at random…

For $\varepsilon\in(0,1/2)$ and a natural number $d\ge 2$, let $N$ be a natural number with \[ N \,\ge\, 2^9\,\log_2(d)\, \left(\frac{\log_2(1/\varepsilon)}{\varepsilon}\right)^2. \] We prove that there is a set of $N$ points in the unit…

We continue the research of Lata{\l}a on improving estimates of $p$-th moments of sums of independent random variables. We generalize some of his results in the case when $2 \leq p \leq 4$ and present a combinatorial approach for even…

Randomized approximation algorithms for many #P-complete problems (such as the partition function of a Gibbs distribution, the volume of a convex body, the permanent of a $\{0,1\}$-matrix, and many others) reduce to creating random…
