We study a reproducing kernel Hilbert space of functions defined on the positive integers and associated to the binomial coefficients. We introduce two transforms, which allow us to develop a related harmonic analysis in this Hilbert space.…

We consider the problem of constructing a global, probabilistic, and non-asymptotic confidence region for an unknown function observed on a random design. The unknown function is assumed to lie in a reproducing kernel Hilbert space (RKHS).…

The H\'ajek-Feldman dichotomy establishes that two Gaussian measures are either mutually absolutely continuous with respect to each other (and hence there is a Radon-Nikodym density for each measure with respect to the other one) or…
