The density deconvolution problem involves recovering a target density g from a sample that has been corrupted by noise. From the perspective of Le Cam's local asymptotic normality theory, we show that non-parametric density deconvolution…

Recently, it was observed that solutions of a large class of highly oscillatory second order linear ordinary differential equations can be approximated using nonoscillatory phase functions. In particular, under mild assumptions on the…

We study the percolative properties of random interlacements on the product of G with the integer line Z, when G is a weighted graph satisfying certain sub-Gaussian estimates attached to the parameters alpha > 1, measuring the volume growth…

In [BEI] we introduced a Levy process on a hierarchical lattice which is four dimensional, in the sense that the Green's function for the process equals 1/x^2. If the process is modified so as to be weakly self-repelling, it was shown that…

Using Laplace transform techniques, along with newly-developed accurate numerical inverse Laplace transform algorithms, we decouple the solutions for the singlet structure function $F_s(x,Q^2)$ and $G(x,Q^2)$ of the two leading-order…

Latest experimental and evaluated $\alpha$-decay half-lives between 82$\leq$Z$\leq$118 have been used to modify two empirical formulas: (i) Horoi scaling law [J. Phys. G \textbf{30}, 945 (2004)], and Sobiczewski formula [Acta Phys. Pol. B…

Consider a solution $u$ to $\Delta u +Vu=0$ on $\mathbb{R}^2$, where $V$ is real-valued, measurable and $|V|\leq 1$. If $|u(x)| \leq \exp(-C |x| \log^{1/2}|x|)$, $|x|>2$, where $C$ is a sufficiently large absolute constant, then $u\equiv…

In the present paper we consider the problem of Laplace deconvolution with noisy discrete observations. The study is motivated by Dynamic Contrast Enhanced imaging using a bolus of contrast agent, a procedure which allows considerable…

We propose a generalized debiased Lasso estimator based on a stability principle. When a single column of the design matrix is perturbed, the estimator admits a simple update formula that can be computed from the original solution. Under…

We consider the uniform asymptotic expansion for the Gauss hypergeometric function \[F(a+\epsilon\lambda,m;c+\lambda;x),\qquad \lambda\to+\infty\] for $x<1$ and positive integer $m$ when the parameter $\epsilon>1$ and the constants $a$ and…

Let $Z$ be an $n$-dimensional Gaussian vector and let $f: \mathbb R^n \to \mathbb R$ be a convex function. We show that: $$\mathbb P \left( f(Z) \leq \mathbb E f(Z) -t\sqrt{ {\rm Var} f(Z)} \right) \leq \exp(-ct^2),$$ for all $t>1$, where…

Applying Feynman diagrammatics to non-fermionic strongly correlated models with local constraints might seem generically impossible for two separate reasons: (i) the necessity to have a Gaussian (non-interacting) limit on top of which the…

We prove that nearest-neighbor percolation in dimensions $d\geq 11$ displays mean-field behavior by proving that the infrared bound holds, in turn implying the finiteness of the percolation triangle diagram. The finiteness of the triangle…

The dynamics of dislocations is reported to exhibit glassy properties. We study numerically various versions of 2d edge dislocation systems in the absence of externally applied stress. Two types of glassy behavior are identified: (i)…

We study the random connection model driven by a stationary Poisson process. In the first part of the paper, we derive a lace expansion with remainder term in the continuum and bound the coefficients using a new version of the BK…

In the present paper, we prove time decay estimates of solutions in weighted Sobolev spaces to the second order evolution equation with fractional Laplacian and damping for data in Besov spaces. Our estimates generalize the estimates…

This is the second of two papers on the end-to-end distance of a weakly self-repelling walk on a four dimensional hierarchical lattice. It completes the proof that the expected value grows as a constant times \sqrt{T} log^{1/8}T (1+O((log…

We improve the decay argument by [Bona and Li, J. Math. Pures Appl., 1997] for solitary waves of general dispersive equations and illustrate it in the proof for the exponential decay of solitary waves to steady Degasperis-Procesi equation…

We establish an exponential error term for the renewal theorem in the context of products of random matrices, which is surprising compared with classical abelian cases. A key tool is the Fourier decay of the Furstenberg measures on the…

Using gradient descent (GD) with fixed or decaying step-size is a standard practice in unconstrained optimization problems. However, when the loss function is only locally convex, such a step-size schedule artificially slows GD down as it…
