Kummer's test from 1835 states that the positive series $\sum_{n=1}^\infty a_n$ is convergent if and only if there is a sequence $\{ B_n\}_1^\infty$ of positive numbers such that $B_n\cdot \frac{a_n }{a_{n+1}} -B_{n+1}\geq 1 ,$ for all…
In this paper, we propose extensions for the classical Kummer test, which is a very far-reaching criterion that provides sufficient and necessary conditions for convergence and divergence of series of positive terms. Furthermore, we present…
Let $X_1,\ldots,X_n$ be an i.i.d. sample from symmetric stable distribution with stability parameter $\alpha$ and scale parameter $\gamma$. Let $\varphi_n$ be the empirical characteristic function. We prove an uniform large deviation…
Under what condition is a random constraint satisfaction problem hard to refute by the sum-of-squares (SoS) algorithm? A sufficient condition is t-wise uniformity, that is, each constraint has a t-wise uniform distribution of satisfying…
We propose a sufficient condition of the convergence of a power-log series that formally satisfies an algebraic ordinary differential equation (ODE) of arbitrary order. A general form and properties of the functional coefficients of such a…
An achievement set of a series is a set of all its subsums. We study the properties of achievement sets of conditionally convergent series in finite dimensional spaces. The purpose of the paper is to answer some of the open problems…
We define the quantile set of order $\alpha \in \left[ 1/2,1\right) $ associated to a law $P$ on $\mathbb{R}^{d}$ to be the collection of its directional quantiles seen from an observer $O\in \mathbb{R}^{d}$. Under minimal assumptions these…
We establish a central limit theorem for the unnormalized linear statistic of the Gaussian Unitary Ensemble under optimal conditions: the linear statistics converges if and only if the expression for the limiting variance is finite.
We give a sufficient and necessary condition such that for almost all $s\in{\mathbb R}$ \[ \|n\theta-s\|<\psi(n)\qquad\text{for infinitely many}\ n\in{\mathbb N}, \] where $\theta$ is fixed and $\psi(n)$ is a positive, non-increasing…
We prove that $\frac{\log n}{n}$ is the sharp threshold for universality of the distribution of cokernels of random matrices over $\mathbb{Z}_p$. More precisely, let $\alpha_n = \frac{c\log n}{n}$ for a constant $c>0$ and let $A(n)$ be an…
We prove an uniform boundedness principle for the Lipschitz seminorm of continuous, monotone, positively homogeneous and subadditive mappings on suitable cones of functions. The result is applicable to several classes of classically…
We present several new inequalities for trigonometric sums. Among others, we show that the inequality $$ \sum_{k=1}^n (n-k+1)(n-k+2)k\sin(kx) > \frac{2}{9} \sin(x) \bigl( 1+2\cos(x) \bigr)^2 $$ holds for all $n\geq 1$ and $x\in (0,…
A general sufficient condition for the convergence of subsequences of solutions of non-autonomous, nonlinear difference equations and systems is obtained. For higher order equations the delay sizes and patterns play essential roles in…
We show that a real bounded sequence $(x_n)$ is Ces\`aro convergent to $\ell$ if and only if the sequence of averages with indices in $[\alpha^k,\alpha^{k+1})$ converges to $\ell$ for all $\alpha>1$. If, in addition, the sequence $(x_n)$ is…
We present conditions that allow us to pass from the convergence of probability measures in distribution to the uniform convergence of the associated quantile functions. Under these conditions, one can in particular pass from the asymptotic…
Given an irrational alpha and an x in the unit interval, the set of balanced times, for which the same number of (k*alpha+x) (modulo one) are less than or equal to one half as are larger than one half, is in general infinite, but sparse in…
In this work we derive a variant of the classic Glivenko-Cantelli Theorem, which asserts uniform convergence of the empirical Cumulative Distribution Function (CDF) to the CDF of the underlying distribution. Our variant allows for tighter…
A common statistical task lies in showing asymptotic normality of certain statistics. In many of these situations, classical textbook results on weak convergence theory suffice for the problem at hand. However, there are quite some…
In this paper, we prove boundary pointwise $C^{k,\alpha}$ regularity for any $k\geq 1$ for fully nonlinear parabolic equations. As an application, we give a direct and short proof of the higher regularity of the free boundaries in…
We consider a notion of uniform thinning for a finite sequence of random variables $(X_1,...,X_n)$ obtained by removing one random variable, uniformly at random. If a triangular array of random variables $(X_{n,k} : n \in \mathbb{N}_+, 1…
