We prove the following type of discrete entropy monotonicity for sums of isotropic, log-concave, independent and identically distributed random vectors $X_1,\dots,X_{n+1}$ on $\mathbb{Z}^d$: $$ H(X_1+\cdots+X_{n+1}) \geq H(X_1+\cdots+X_{n})…

We establish, under a moment matching hypothesis, the local universality of the correlation functions associated with products of $M$ independent iid random matrices, as $M$ is fixed, and the sizes of the matrices tend to infinity. This…

We prove anti-concentration bounds for the inner product of two independent random vectors, and use these bounds to prove lower bounds in communication complexity. We show that if $A,B$ are subsets of the cube $\{\pm 1\}^n$ with $|A| \cdot…

The commutator between operators at different space and time has been a diagnostic for locality of unitary evolution. Most existing results are either for specific tractable (random) Hamiltonians(Out-of-Time-Order-Correlators calculations),…

We derive explicit central moment inequalities for random variables that admit a Stein coupling, such as exchangeable pairs, size--bias couplings or local dependence, among others. The bounds are in terms of moments (not necessarily…

We consider the problem of guessing the realization of a random variable but under more general Tsallis' non-extensive entropic framework rather than the classical Maxwell-Boltzman-Gibbs-Shannon framework. We consider both the conditional…

We prove the three-dimensional Gaussian product inequality (GPI) $E[X_1^{2}X_2^{2m_2}X_3^{2m_3}]\ge E[X_1^{2}]E[X_2^{2m_2}]E[X_3^{2m_3}]$ for any centered Gaussian random vector $(X_1,X_2,X_3)$ and $m_2,m_3\in\mathbb{N}$. We discover a…

We provide a systematic approach to deal with the following problem. Let $X_1,\ldots,X_n$ be, possibly dependent, $[0,1]$-valued random variables. What is a sharp upper bound on the probability that their sum is significantly larger than…

We discuss a conjecture about comparability of weak and strong moments of log-concave random vectors and show the conjectured inequality for unconditional vectors in normed spaces with a bounded cotype constant.

We prove some unique prime factorization results for tensor products of type $II_1$ factors of the form $\Gamma_q(\mathbb{C}, S \otimes H)$ arising from symmetric independent copies with sub-exponential dimensions of the spaces $D_k(S)$ and…

The phenomenon of entropy concentration provides strong support for the maximum entropy method, MaxEnt, for inferring a probability vector from information in the form of constraints. Here we extend this phenomenon, in a discrete setting,…

We give a general description of the moment cone associated with an arbitrary finite-dimensional unitary representation of a compact, connected Lie group in terms of finitely many linear inequalities. Our method is based on combining…

We study random variables of the form $f(X)$, when $f$ is a degree $d$ polynomial, and $X$ is a random vector on $\mathbb{R}^{n}$, motivated towards a deeper understanding of the covariance structure of $X^{\otimes d}$. For applications,…

We propose a novel approach to concentration for non-independent random variables. The main idea is to ``pretend'' that the random variables are independent and pay a multiplicative price measuring how far they are from actually being…

We study a class of $K$-encoder hypothesis testing against conditional independence problems. Under the criterion that stipulates minimization of the Type II error subject to a (constant) upper bound $\epsilon$ on the Type I error, we…

We study Edgeworth expansions in limit theorems for self-normalized sums. Non-uniform bounds for expansions in the central limit theorem are established while only imposing minimal moment conditions. Within this result, we address the case…

In this paper we prove multilevel concentration inequalities for bounded functionals $f = f(X_1, \ldots, X_n)$ of random variables $X_1, \ldots, X_n$ that are either independent or satisfy certain logarithmic Sobolev inequalities. The…

Let $A\in\mathbb{R}^{m\times n}$ be a matrix of rank $r$ with singular value decomposition (SVD) $A=\sum_{k=1}^r\sigma_k (u_k\otimes v_k),$ where $\{\sigma_k, k=1,\ldots,r\}$ are singular values of $A$ (arranged in a non-increasing order)…

We consider the stochastic integrals of multivariate point processes and study their concentration phenomena. In particular, we obtain a Bernstein type of concentration inequality through Dol\'eans-Dade exponential formula and a uniform…

We present nonasymptotic concentration inequalities for sums of independent and identically distributed random variables that yield asymptotic strong Gaussian approximations of Koml\'os, Major, and Tusn\'ady (KMT) [1975,1976]. The constants…
