Let $X_1,..., X_n \in \mathbb{R}^d$ be independent Gaussian random vectors with independent entries and variance profile $(b_{ij})_{i \in [d],j \in [n]}$. A major question in the study of covariance estimation is to give precise control on…

If a self-map $\sigma \colon \mathcal{X} \rightarrow \mathcal{X}$ has a dynamical zeta function with nonzero radius of convergence $1/\Lambda$ and the Ces\`aro mean $B$ of $ \# \mathrm{Fix}(\sigma^k)/\Lambda^k$ exists and is positive, we…
