We develop a theory of multidimensional randomization in Lebesgue spaces $L^p$ with the aid of Kahane-Khintchine-Marcus-Pisier inequalities. More precisely, we obtain a result in the spirit of Maurey-Pisier's theorem which involves random…

The property of almost every point being a Lebesgue point has proven to be crucial for the consistency of several classification algorithms based on nearest neighbors. We characterize Lebesgue points in terms of a 1-Nearest Neighbor…

We obtain results concerning the so-called factorization for the convergence of random variables almost everywhere (almost surely or with probability one), belonging to the classical Lebesgue-Riesz spaces and we extend these results to the…

We consider structured optimisation problems defined in terms of the sum of a smooth and convex function, and a proper, l.s.c., convex (typically non-smooth) one in reflexive variable exponent Lebesgue spaces $L_{p(\cdot)}(\Omega)$. Due to…

We study the approximation of arbitrary distributions $P$ on $d$-dimensional space by distributions with log-concave density. Approximation means minimizing a Kullback--Leibler-type functional. We show that such an approximation exists if…

We show that, for every $1 \leq p < +\infty$ and for every Borel probability measure $\mathbb{P}$ over $\mathbb{R}$, every element of $L^{p}(\mathbb{R}, \mathscr{B}_{\mathbb{R}}, \mathbb{P})$ is the $L^{p}$-limit of some sequence of bounded…

Let $D$ be a nonnegative integer and ${\mathbf{\Theta}}\subset S^1$ be a lacunary set of directions of order $D$. We show that the $L^p$ norms, $1<p<\infty$, of the maximal directional Hilbert transform in the plane $$ H_{{\mathbf{\Theta}}}…

In view of solving nonsmooth and nonconvex problems involving complex constraints (like standard NLP problems), we study general maximization-minimization procedures produced by families of strongly convex sub-problems. Using techniques…

In this paper, we study the cut-off phenomenon under the total variation distance of $d$-dimensional Ornstein-Uhlenbeck processes which are driven by L\'evy processes. That is to say, under the total variation distance, there is an abrupt…

We prove the validity of maximum principles for a class of fully nonlinear operators on unbounded subdomains $\Omega \subset \mathbb R^n$ of cylindrical type. The main structural assumption is the uniform ellipticity of the operator along…

The maximal inequalities for diffusion processes have drawn increasing attention in recent years. However, the existing proof of the $L^p$ maximum inequalities for the Ornstein-Uhlenbeck process was dubious. Here we give a rigorous proof of…

We investigate a particular form of weak convergence of the local empirical process.

We consider the numerical approximation for a class of radial Dunkl processes corresponding to arbitrary (reduced) root systems in $\mathbb{R}^{d}$. This class contains some well-known processes such as Bessel processes, Dyson's Brownian…

We show that optimal $L^2$-convergence in the finite element method on quasi-uniform meshes can be achieved if, for some $s_0 > 1/2$, the boundary value problem has the mapping property $H^{-1+s} \rightarrow H^{1+s}$ for $s \in [0,s_0]$.…

We consider the problem of sampling from a probability distribution $\pi$ which admits a density w.r.t. a dominating measure. It is well known that this can be written as an optimisation problem over the space of probability distributions…
