This paper is the second part of our study on the non-parametric estimation of MS-NAR processes started with [L. Fermin et al. 2017]. We consider the Nadaraya-Watson type regression function estimator for non-linear autoregressive Markov…

In the context of mod-Gaussian convergence, as defined previously in our work with J. Jacod, we obtain lower bounds for local probabilities for a sequence of random vectors which are approximately Gaussian with increasing covariance. This…

We consider the time evolution of $N$ bosons in the mean field regime for factorized initial data. In the limit of large $N$, the many body evolution can be approximated by the non-linear Hartree equation. In this paper we are interested in…

We prove a Chevet type inequality which gives an upper bound for the norm of an isotropic log-concave unconditional random matrix in terms of expectation of the supremum of "symmetric exponential" processes compared to the Gaussian ones in…

This paper establishes sharp dimension-free concentration and expectation bounds for the deviation of a sample cross-covariance matrix from its mean. For sub-Gaussian random vectors, we prove a high-probability operator-norm bound governed…

It is well known that a supercritical single-type Bienyam\'e-Galton-Watson process can be viewed as a decomposable branching process formed by two subtypes of particles: those having infinite line of descent and those who have finite number…

A properly scaled critical Galton-Watson process converges to a continuous state critical branching process $\xi(\cdot)$ as the number of initial individuals tends to infinity. We extend this classical result by allowing for overlapping…

We consider an indecomposable Galton-Watson branching process with countably infinitely many types. Assuming that the process is critical and allowing for infinite variance of the offspring sizes of some (or all) types of particles we…

The object of study in this paper is the expected $2$-Wasserstein distance between the empirical measures of several point processes and their respective limit. For this, the main tool developed is a smoothing procedure in Euclidean spaces…

As second-order methods, Gauss--Newton-type methods can be more effective than first-order methods for the solution of nonsmooth optimization problems with expensive-to-evaluate smooth components. Such methods, however, often do not…

Let $\mu$ be a probability measure on $\text{GL}_d(\mathbb R)$ and denote by $S_n:= g_n \cdots g_1$ the associated random matrix product, where $g_j$'s are i.i.d.'s with law $\mu$. We study statistical properties of random variables of the…

A moderate deviation principle for nonlinear functions of Gaussian processes is established. The nonlinear functions need not be locally bounded. Especially, the logarithm is allowed. (Thus, small deviations of the process are relevant.)…
