We derive the necessary and sufficient condition for almost sure convergence of the sequence of measurable functions, and consider some applications in the theory of Fourier series and in the theory of random fields.

Cantor sets in \(\mathbb{R}\) are common examples of sets for which Hausdorff measures can be positive and finite. However, there exist Cantor sets for which no Hausdorff measure is supported and finite. The purpose of this paper is to try…

The central problem in this work is to compute a ranking of a set of elements which is "closest to" a given set of input rankings of the elements. We define "closest to" in an established way as having the minimum sum of Kendall-Tau…

In this paper we initiate a new approach to studying approximations by rational points to points on smooth submanifolds of $\mathbb{R}^n$. Our main result is a convergence Khintchine type theorem for arbitrary nondegenerate submanifolds of…

With a view to establishing measure theoretic approximation properties of Delone sets, we study a setup which arises naturally in the problem of averaging almost periodic functions along exponential sequences. In this setting, we establish…

In this paper, we relate the framework of mod-$\phi$ convergence to the construction of approximation schemes for lattice-distributed random variables. The point of view taken here is that of Fourier analysis in the Wiener algebra, allowing…

In this paper we study algorithms to find a Gaussian approximation to a target measure defined on a Hilbert space of functions; the target measure itself is defined via its density with respect to a reference Gaussian measure. We employ the…

We show for decreasing, positive approximation functions $\psi$ such that $\tau = \lim_{q \to \infty} \frac{\log \psi(q)}{\log q} < \frac{13 + \sqrt{73}}{8}$ and such that $q^2 \psi(q) \to 0$ that the set $\text{Exact}(\psi)$ of numbers…

The celebrated results of Koml\'os, Major and Tusn\'ady [Z. Wahrsch. Verw. Gebiete 32 (1975) 111-131; Z. Wahrsch. Verw. Gebiete 34 (1976) 33-58] give optimal Wiener approximation for the partial sums of i.i.d. random variables and provide a…

This work considers the computation of risk measures for quantities of interest governed by PDEs with Gaussian random field parameters using Taylor approximations. While efficient, Taylor approximations are local to the point of expansion,…

We prove a multidimensional weighted analogue of the well-known theorem of Kurzweil (1955) in the metric theory of inhomogeneous Diophantine approximation. Let $A$ be matrix of real numbers, $\Psi$ an $n$-tuple of monotonic decreasing…

In 1962, Gallagher proved an higher dimensional version of Khintchine's theorem on Diophantine approximation. Gallagher's theorem states that for any non-increasing approximation function $\psi:\mathbb{N}\to (0,1/2)$ with…

Laplace's method approximates a target density with a Gaussian distribution at its mode. It is computationally efficient and asymptotically exact for Bayesian inference due to the Bernstein-von Mises theorem, but for complex targets and…

This paper develops a new direct approach to approximating suprema of general empirical processes by a sequence of suprema of Gaussian processes, without taking the route of approximating whole empirical processes in the sup-norm. We prove…

In this paper, we consider the problem of approximating the spectral distribution for a class of random operators over sofic groups. For this purpose, we make use of the concept of locally and empirically converging measures defined by…

Let $\Lambda$ be a uniformly discrete set and $S$ be a compact set in $R$. We prove that if there exists a bounded sequence of functions in Paley--Wiener space $PW_S$, which approximates $\delta-$functions on $\Lambda$ with $l^2-$error $d$,…

We consider approximation of diameter of a set $S$ of $n$ points in dimension $m$. E$\tilde{g}$ecio$\tilde{g}$lu and Kalantari \cite{kal} have shown that given any $p \in S$, by computing its farthest in $S$, say $q$, and in turn the…

Given a monotonically decreasing $\psi: \mathbb{N} \to [0,\infty)$, Khintchine's Theorem provides an efficient tool to decide whether, for almost every $\alpha \in \mathbb{R}$, there are infinitely many $(p,q) \in \mathbb{Z}^2$ such that…
