We consider a stochastic version of the proximal point algorithm for optimization problems posed on a Hilbert space. A typical application of this is supervised learning. While the method is not new, it has not been extensively analyzed in…

The classical Khintchine--Jarn\'ik Theorem provides elegant criteria for determining the Lebesgue measure and Hausdorff measure of sets of points approximated by rational points, which has inspired much modern research in metric Diophantine…

In this paper we quantify the notion of antisymmetry of the Fourier transform of certain vector valued measures. The introduced scale is related to the condition appearing in Uchiyama's theorem and is used to give a lower bound for the…

The point-to-set principle of J. Lutz and N. Lutz (2018) has recently enabled the theory of computing to be used to answer open questions about fractal geometry in Euclidean spaces $\mathbb{R}^n$. These are classical questions, meaning that…

Fundamental questions in Diophantine approximation are related to the Hausdorff dimension of sets of the form $\{x\in \mathbb{R}: \delta_x = \delta\}$, where $\delta \geq 1$ and $\delta_x$ is the Diophantine approximation rate of an…

We prove that generically, for a self-affine set in $\mathbb{R}^d$, removing one of the affine maps which defines the set results in a strict reduction of the Hausdorff dimension. This gives a partial positive answer to a folklore open…

The set B of geodesic rays avoiding a suitable obstacle in a complete negatively curved Riemannian manifold determines a spectrum S. While various properties of this spectrum are known, we define and study dimension functions on S in terms…

On spaces of finite signed Borel measures on a metric space one has introduced the Fortet-Mourier and Dudley norms, by embedding the measures into the dual space of the Banach space of bounded Lipschitz functions, equipped with different --…

Let $\psi:\mathbb R_+\to\mathbb R_+$ be a non-increasing function. A real number $x$ is said to be $\psi$-Dirichlet improvable if the system $$|qx-p|< \, \psi(t) \ \ {\text{and}} \ \ |q|<t$$ has a non-trivial integer solution for all large…

I discuss a set of strong, but probabilistically intelligible, axioms from which one can {\em almost} derive the appratus of finite dimensional quantum theory. Stated informally, these require that systems appear completely classical as…

In this paper, we present a general theory of finite quantum measurements, for which we assume that the state space of the measured system is a finite dimensional Hilbert space and that the possible outcomes of a measurement is a finite set…

The classical concept of bounded completeness and its relation to sufficiency and ancillarity play a fundamental role in unbiased estimation, unbiased testing, and the validity of inference in the presence of nuisance parameters. In this…

In the setting of a doubling metric measure space, we study regularity of sets with finite $s$-perimeter, that is, sets whose characteristic functions have finite Besov energy, with regularity parameter $0<s<1$ and exponent $p=1$. Following…

We consider a one-dimensional diffusion which solves a stochastic differential equation with Borel-measurable coefficients in an open interval. We allow for the endpoints to be inaccessible or absorbing. Given a Borel-measurable function…

Making statements about the performance of trained models on tasks involving new data is one of the primary goals of machine learning, i.e., to understand the generalization power of a model. Various capacity measures try to capture this…

We generalize the classical theorem by Jarnik and Besicovitch on the irrationality exponents of real numbers and Hausdorff dimension. Let a be any real number greater than or equal to 2 and let b be any non-negative real less than or equal…

The Hausdorff dimension of the set of points that are covered infinitely many times by a sequence of randomly distributed balls in the unit cube can be expressed in terms of the sizes of the balls. This note presents a new proof of the…

We define twelve variants of a Reifenberg's affine approximation property, which are known to be connected with the singular sets of minimal surfaces. With this motivation we investigate the regularity of the sets possessing these. We…

We introduce a novel projection depth for data lying in a general Hilbert space, called the regularized projection depth, with a focus on functional data. By regularizing projection directions, the proposed depth does not suffer from the…

We give a complete characterization of the size of Borel sets that are mid-point convex but not (essentially) convex, in terms of their Hausdorff dimensions and Hausdorff measures.
