We show somewhat unexpectedly that whenever a general Bernstein-type maximal inequality holds for partial sums of a sequence of random variables, a maximal form of the inequality is also valid.

The binary divergences that are divergences between probability measures defined on the same 2-point set have an interesting property. For the chi-squared divergence and the relative entropy, it is known that their binary divergence attain…

In this article, we derive a congruence property of particular sum rules involving prime numbers. The resulting expression involves Bernoulli numbers and polynomials, for which we obtain, as a consequence, a general congruence relation as…

We introduce a multivariate analogue of Bernoulli polynomials and give their fundamental properties: difference and differential relations, symmetry, explicit formula, inversion formula, multiplication theorem, and binomial type formula.…

Composite optimization problems, where the sum of a smooth and a merely lower semicontinuous function has to be minimized, are often tackled numerically by means of proximal gradient methods as soon as the lower semicontinuous part of the…

This work presents several new results concerning the analysis of the convergence of binary, univariate, and linear subdivision schemes, all related to the {\it contractivity factor} of a convergent scheme. First, we prove that a convergent…

We consider the Fokker-Planck equation with subcritical confinement force field which may not derive from a potential function. We prove the existence of an equilibrium (in the case of a general force) and we establish some (polynomial and…

Comparative convexity is a generalization of convexity relying on abstract notions of means. We define the Jensen divergence and the Jensen diversity from the viewpoint of comparative convexity, and show how to obtain the generalized…

We give a purely complex geometric proof of the existence of the Bergman kernel expansion. Our method provides a sharper estimate, and in the case that the metrics are real analytic, we prove that the remainder decays faster than any…

In this paper, we first prove the coefficient conjecture of Clunie and Sheil-Small for a class of univalent harmonic functions which includes functions convex in some direction. Next, we prove growth and covering theorems and some related…

Certain notions of convergence of sequences functions such as pointwise convergence and (uniform) convergence on compact or bounded sets come from suitable topological function spaces; see [1]. Under certain conditions these topologies…

We prove a sharp Bernstein-type inequality for complex polynomials which are positive and satisfy a polynomial growth condition on the positive real axis. This leads to an improved upper estimate in the recent work of Culiuc and Treil on…

We establish weighted weak-type bounds for the Bergman projection with respect to Bekoll\'e-Bonami characteristics. We present two proofs of an improved quantitative weak-type $(1,1)$ estimate, as well as sharp weak-type $(p,p)$ bounds for…

We prove several new families of Bernstein inequalities of two types on the simplex. The first type consists of inequalities in $L^2$ norm for the Jacobi weight, some of which are sharp, and they are established via the spectral operator…

Shuffling-type gradient methods are favored in practice for their simplicity and rapid empirical performance. Despite extensive development of convergence guarantees under various assumptions in recent years, most require the Lipschitz…

Minimizing divergence measures under a constraint is an important problem. We derive a sufficient condition that binary divergence measures provide lower bounds for symmetric divergence measures under a given triangular discrimination or…

A generalization of Young's inequality for convolution with sharp constant is conjectured for scenarios where more than two functions are being convolved, and it is proven for certain parameter ranges. The conjecture would provide a unified…

For $n\geq 2$, we determine the Dirichlet spectrum in $\Rn$ with respect to a linear form and the maximum norm as the entire interval $[0,1]$. This natural result improves on recent work of Beresnevich, Guan, Marnat, Ram\'irez and Velani,…

We exhibit a linear threshold function in 5 variables with strictly smaller noise stability (for small values of the correlation parameter) than the majority function on 5 variables, thereby providing a counterexample to the "Majority is…

Two types of Bernstein inequalities are established on the unit ball in $\mathbb{R}^d$, which are stronger than those known in the literature. The first type consists of inequalities in $L^p$ norm for a fully symmetric doubling weight on…
