A theorem of McCann shows that for any two absolutely continuous probability measures on R^d there exists a monotone transformation sending one probability measure to the other. A consequence of this theorem, relevant to statistics, is that…

Let $M_n$ denote a random symmetric $n \times n$ matrix whose upper diagonal entries are independent and identically distributed Bernoulli random variables (which take values $1$ and $-1$ with probability $1/2$ each). It is widely…

In this paper, explicit error bounds are derived in the approximation of rank $k$ projections of certain $n$-dimensional random vectors by standard $k$-dimensional Gaussian random vectors. The bounds are given in terms of $k$, $n$, and a…

Let $\{B_k\}_{k=1}^\infty, \{X_k\}_{k=1}^\infty$ all be independent random variables. Assume that $\{B_k\}_{k=1}^\infty$ are $\{0,1\}$-valued Bernoulli random variables satisfying $B_k\stackrel{\text{dist}}{=}\text{Ber}(p_k)$, with…

Computing the probability of evidence even with known error bounds is NP-hard. In this paper we address this hard problem by settling on an easier problem. We propose an approximation which provides high confidence lower bounds on…

We consider a linear Hamiltonian system consisting of a classical particle and a scalar field describing by the wave or Klein-Gordon equations with variable coefficients. The initial data of the system are supposed to be a random function…

In this paper, we give rates of convergence, for minimal distances and for the uniform distance, between the law of partial sums of martingale differences and thelimiting Gaussian distribution. More precisely, denoting by $P_{X}$ the law of…

The Mallows measure is a probability measure on $S_n$ where the probability of a permutation $\pi$ is proportional to $q^{l(\pi)}$ with $q > 0$ being a parameter and $l(\pi)$ the number of inversions in $\pi$. We show the convergence of the…

Let $ \nu $ be a probability distribution over the linear semi-group $ \mathrm{End}(E) $ for $ E $ a finite dimensional vector space over a locally compact field. We assume that $ \nu $ is proximal, strongly irreducible and that $…

In testing the independence of two Gaussian populations, one computes the distribution of the sample canonical correlation coefficients, given that the actual correlation is zero. The "Laplace transform" of this distribution is not only an…

Let $A$ be an $n\times n$ random matrix with i.i.d. entries of zero mean, unit variance and a bounded subgaussian moment. We show that the condition number $s_{\max}(A)/s_{\min}(A)$ satisfies the small ball probability estimate $${\mathbb…

We prove a randomized version of the generalized Urysohn inequality relating mean-width to the other intrinsic volumes. To do this, we introduce a stochastic approximation procedure that sees each convex body K as the limit of intersections…

This paper considers MEP - Mixed Exponential Polynomials as one class of real exponential polynomials. We introduce a method for proving the positivity of MEP inequalities over positive intervals using the Maclaurin series to approximate…

In this note we discuss uniform integrability of random variables. In a probability space, we introduce two new notions on uniform integrability of random variables, and prove that they are equivalent to the classic one. In a sublinear…
