We establish a rigorous asymptotic theory for the joint estimation of roughness and scale parameters in two-dimensional Gaussian random fields with power-law generalized covariances \cite{Matheron1973, Stein1999, Yaglom1987}. Our main…
We prove that every hyperbolic measure invariant under a C^{1+\alpha} diffeomorphism of a smooth Riemannian manifold possesses asymptotically ``almost'' local product structure, i.e., its density can be approximated by the product of the…
We calculate the almost sure Hausdorff dimension of the random covering set $\limsup_{n\to\infty}(g_n + \xi_n)$ in $d$-dimensional torus $\mathbb T^d$, where the sets $g_n\subset\mathbb T^d$ are parallelepipeds, or more generally, linear…
We study continuity and discontinuity properties of some popular measure-dimension mappings under some topologies on the space of probability measures in this work. We give examples to show that no continuity can be guaranteed under general…
In this paper we prove uniform Hausdorff and packing dimension results for the images of a large family of Markov processes. The main tools are the two covering principles of Xiao (second author). As applications, uniform Hausdorff and…
Motivated by numerous questions in random geometry, given a smooth manifold $M$, we approach a systematic study of the differential topology of Gaussian random fields (GRF) $X:M\to \mathbb{R}^k$, that we interpret as random variables with…
We consider extremal processes and random walks generated by heavy-tailed random vectors taking values in $\mathbb{R}^d$ endowed with the $\ell_p$ metric. We establish limit theorems for the associated paths in the triangular array setting…
We study an analogue of Marstrand's circle packing problem for curves in higher dimensions. We consider collections of curves which are generated by translation and dilation of a curve $\gamma$ in $\mathbb R^d$, i.e., $ x + t \gamma$,…
Stochastic processes are often represented through orthonormal series expansions, a framework originating in the classical works of Lo\`eve and Karhunen and widely used for simulation and numerical approximation. While truncation error in…
Consider the multivariate Stein equation $\Delta f - x\cdot \nabla f = h(x) - E h(Z)$, where $Z$ is a standard $d$-dimensional Gaussian random vector, and let $f\_h$ be the solution given by Barbour's generator approach. We prove that, when…
We prove that the algorithm of [13] for approximating the Hausdorff dimension of dynamically defined Cantor sets, using periodic points of the underlying dynamical system, can be used to establish completely rigorous high accuracy bounds on…
In the present paper and the companion paper [8] a probabilistic (statistical mechanical) approach to the study of canonical metrics and measures on a complex algebraic variety X is introduced. On any such variety with positive Kodaira…
Randomized zeroth-order methods are classically analyzed in expectation, but a black-box Markov conversion can give misleading high-probability guarantees, in particular by forcing the finite-difference smoothing radius to shrink with the…
We present fixed domain asymptotic results that establish consistent estimates of the variance and scale parameters for a Gaussian random field with a geometric anisotropic Mat\'ern autocovariance in dimension $d>4$. When $d<4$ this is…
We establish H\"older regularity and gradient estimates for the transition semigroup of the solutions to the following SDE: $$ {\rm d} X_t=\sigma (t, X_{t-}){\rm d} Z_t+b (t, X_t){\rm d} t,\ \ X_0=x\in{\mathbb R}^d, $$ where $( Z_t)_{t\geq…
The purpose of this paper is to estimate the limiting variance of asymptotically stationary Gaussian processes observed at high frequency, using the second moment estimator (SME). We study rates of convergence of the central limit theorem…
We establish that constructive continued fraction dimension originally defined using $s$-gales is robust, but surprisingly, that the effective continued fraction dimension and effective (base-$b$) Hausdorff dimension of the same real can be…
This paper is concerned with restricted families of projections in $\mathbb{R}^{3}$. Let $K \subset \mathbb{R}^{3}$ be a Borel set with Hausdorff dimension $\dim K = s > 1$. If $\mathcal{G}$ is a smooth and sufficiently well-curved…
We extend results by B. Hasselblatt, J. Schmeling in \emph{Dimension product structure of hyperbolic sets} (2004), and by the third author and K. Simon in \emph{Hausdorff and packing measures for solenoids} (2003), for $C^{1+\varepsilon}$…
The set of badly approximable $m \times n $ matrices is known to have Hausdorff dimension $mn $. Each such matrix comes with its own approximation constant $c$, and one can ask for the dimension of the set of badly approximable matrices…
