By using Lyapunov conditions, weak Poincar\'e inequalities are established for some probability measures on a manifold $(M,g)$. These results are further applied to the convolution of two probability measures on $\R^d$. Along with explicit…
Subgradient methods converge linearly on a convex function that grows sharply away from its solution set. In this work, we show that the same is true for sharp functions that are only weakly convex, provided that the subgradient methods are…
We provide general formulation of weak identification in semiparametric models and an efficiency concept. Weak identification occurs when a parameter is weakly regular, i.e., when it is locally homogeneous of degree zero. When this happens,…
