This paper proves joint convergence of the approximation error for several stochastic integrals with respect to local Brownian semimartingales, for nonequidistant and random grids. The conditions needed for convergence are that the Lebesgue…

We prove the existence of codebooks for d-semifaithful lossy compression that are simultaneously universal with respect to both the class of finite-alphabet memoryless sources and the class of all bounded additive distortion measures. By…

We study the computational complexity of estimating the normalized trace $2^{-n}Tr[f(A)]$ for a log-local Hamiltonian $A$ acting on $n$ qubits. This problem arises naturally in the DQC1 model, yet its complexity is only understood for a…

The performance of Reed--Solomon codes (RS codes, for short) in the presence of insertion and deletion errors has attracted growing attention in recent literature. In this work, we further study this intriguing mathematical problem,…

This paper shows that the logarithm of the epsilon-error capacity (average error probability) for n uses of a discrete memoryless channel is upper bounded by the normal approximation plus a third-order term that does not exceed 1/2 log n +…

In this paper we establish an estimate for the rate of convergence of the Krasnosel'ski\v{\i}-Mann iteration for computing fixed points of non-expansive maps. Our main result settles the Baillon-Bruck conjecture [3] on the asymptotic…

A recently-introduced class of probabilistic (uncertainty-aware) solvers for ordinary differential equations (ODEs) applies Gaussian (Kalman) filtering to initial value problems. These methods model the true solution $x$ and its first $q$…

For each $d \in {1,2,3,7,11}$, let $T_d$ be the nearest-integer complex continued fraction map associated with the Euclidean ring $\mathcal{O}*d$, and let $(a_n)$ be its digit sequence. We prove two metric results for this five-system…

This paper deals with the problem of soft guessing under log-loss distortion (logarithmic loss) that was recently investigated by [Wu and Joudeh, IEEE ISIT, pp. 466--471, 2023]. We extend this problem to soft guessing allowing errors, i.e.,…

Statistical mechanics mappings provide key insights on quantum error correction. However, existing mappings assume incoherent noise, thus ignoring coherent errors due to, e.g., spurious gate rotations. We map the surface code with coherent…
