We consider a generic modified logarithmic Sobolev inequality (mLSI) of the form $\mathrm{Ent}_{\mu}(e^f) \le \tfrac{\rho}{2} \mathbb{E}_\mu e^f \Gamma(f)^2$ for some difference operator $\Gamma$, and show how it implies two-level…
The aim of this paper is to establish Hoeffding and Bernstein type concentration inequalities for weighted sums of exchangeable random variables. A special case is the i.i.d. setting, where random variables are sampled independently from…
The purpose of this paper is to establish the convergence in law of the sequence of "midpoint" Riemann sums for a stochastic process of the form f'(W), where W is a Gaussian process whose covariance function satisfies some technical…
A new coupling argument is introduced to establish Driver's integration by parts formula and shift Harnack inequality. Unlike known coupling methods where two marginal processes with different starting points are constructed to move…
Viewing a two time scale stochastic approximation scheme as a noisy discretization of a singularly perturbed differential equation, we obtain a concentration bound for its iterates that captures its behavior with quantifiable high…
We develop a stochastic integration theory for predictable integrands with respect to a L\'evy basis. Our approach is based on decoupling inequalities for tangent sequences and reduces the construction of the stochastic integral essentially…
The $L^p$ maximal inequalities for martingales are one of the classical results in the theory of stochastic processes. Here we establish the sharp moderate maximal inequalities for one-dimensional diffusion processes, which include the…
We study a class of logarithmic Sobolev inequalities with a general form of the energy functional. The class generalizes various examples of modified logarithmic Sobolev inequalities considered previously in the literature. Refining a…
Let $\mathcal{F}$ be a class of measurable functions on a measurable space $(S,\mathcal{S})$ with values in $[0,1]$ and let \[P_n=n^{-1}\sum_{i=1}^n\delta_{X_i}\] be the empirical measure based on an i.i.d. sample $(X_1,...,X_n)$ from a…
Recently, a novel framework to handle stochastic processes has emerged from a series of studies in biology, showing situations beyond 'It\^o versus Stratonovich'. Its internal consistency can be demonstrated via the zero mass limit of a…
We consider a finite or countable collection of one-dimensional Brownian particles whose dynamics at any point in time is determined by their rank in the entire particle system. Using Transportation Cost Inequalities for stochastic…
Three novel multilinear embedding estimates for the fractional Laplacian are obtained in terms of trace integrals restricted to the diagonal. The resulting sharp inequalities may be viewed as extensions of the Hardy-Littlewood-Sobolev…
In this paper we study the short-maturity asymptotics of up-and-in barrier options under a broad class of stochastic volatility models. Our approach uses Malliavin calculus techniques, typically used for linear stochastic partial…
The paper considers the integration theory for $G$-L\'evy processes with finite activity. We introduce the It\^o-L\'evy integrals, give the It\^o formula for them and establish SDE's, BSDE's and decoupled FBSDE's driven by $G$-L\'evy…
We derive the stochastic version of the Magnus expansion for linear systems of stochastic differential equations (SDEs). The main novelty with respect to the related literature is that we consider SDEs in the It\^o sense, with progressively…
The paper deals with the problem of integration of equations of motion in nonholonomic systems. By means of well-known theory of the differential equations with an invariant measure the new integrable systems are discovered. Among them…
We prove tail and moment inequalities for multiple stochastic integrals on the Poisson space and for Poisson $U$-statistics. We use them to demonstrate the Law of the Iterated Logarithm for these processes when the intensity of the Poisson…
We provide criteria for It\^o integration to behave continuously with respect to Skorokhod's J1 and M1 topologies, when the integrands and integrators converge weakly or in probability. The results are novel in the M1 setting and unify…
This article is concerned with the fluctuations and the concentration properties of a general class of discrete generation and mean field particle interpretations of nonlinear measure valued processes. We combine an original stochastic…
The convergence of stochastic integrals is essential to stochastic analysis, especially in applications to mathematical finance, where they model the gains associated with a self-financing strategy. However, Fatou convergence of…
