Non-Gaussian concentration estimates are obtained for invariant probability measures of reversible Markov processes. We show that the functional inequalities approach combined with a suitable Lyapunov condition allows us to circumvent the…

We investigate regularity properties of generalized conjugate functions induced by a general coupling function and the associated generalized proximal mapping. Our main results provide verifiable conditions ensuring local single-valuedness,…

One classical measure of the quality of an interpolating function is its Lipschitz constant. In this paper we consider interpolants with additional smoothness requirements, in particular that their derivatives be Lipschitz. We show that…

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…

In this work, we are concerned with existence and uniqueness of invariant measures for path-dependent random diffusions and their time discretizations. The random diffusion here means a diffusion process living in a random environment…

This is an invitation to the probabilistic approach for constructing K\"ahler-Einstein metrics on complex projective algebraic manifolds X. The metrics in question emerge in the large N-limit from a canonical way of sampling N points on X,…

We establish a new perturbation theory for orthogonal polynomials using a Riemann--Hilbert approach and consider applications in numerical linear algebra and random matrix theory. This new approach shows that the orthogonal polynomials with…

Consider a proper metric space X and a sequence of i.i.d. random continuous mappings F_n from X to X. It induces the stochastic dynamical system (SDS) X_n^x = F_n(X_{n-1}^x) starting at x in X. In this paper, we study existence and…

Conditional on the extended Riemann hypothesis, we show that with high probability, the characteristic polynomial of a random symmetric $\{\pm 1\}$-matrix is irreducible. This addresses a question raised by Eberhard in recent work. The main…

The intent of this short note is to extend real valued Lipschitz functions on metric spaces, while locally preserving the asymptotic Lipschitz constant. We then apply this results to give a simple and direct proof of the fact that Sobolev…

The article is devoted to the development of numerical methods for solving variational inequalities with relatively strongly monotone operators. We consider two classes of variational inequalities related to some analogs of the Lipschitz…

This article studies the Gram random matrix model $G=\frac1T\Sigma^{\rm T}\Sigma$, $\Sigma=\sigma(WX)$, classically found in the analysis of random feature maps and random neural networks, where $X=[x_1,\ldots,x_T]\in{\mathbb R}^{p\times…

In this paper, we establish moment and Bernstein-type inequalities for additive functionals of geometrically ergodic Markov chains. These inequalities extend the corresponding inequalities for independent random variables. Our conditions…

Let $\xi_1,\xi_2,...$ be independent identically distributed random variables and $F:\bbR^\ell\to SL_d(\bbR)$ be a Borel measurable matrix-valued function. Set $X_n=F(\xi_{q_1(n)},\xi_{q_2(n)},...,\xi_{q_\ell(n)})$ where $0\leq…

We propose a single time-scale stochastic subgradient method for constrained optimization of a composition of several nonsmooth and nonconvex functions. The functions are assumed to be locally Lipschitz and differentiable in a generalized…

This paper deals with the estimation of a probability measure on the real line from data observed with an additive noise. We are interested in rates of convergence for the Wasserstein metric of order $p\geq 1$. The distribution of the…

We prove strong statistical stability of a large class of one-dimensional maps which may have an arbitrary finite number of discontinuities and of non-degenerate critical points and/or singular points with infinite derivative, and satisfy…

This manuscript bridges nonparametric smoothness-based and shape-restricted estimation, which may appear as two disjoint paradigms in the field. The proposed approach is motivated by a conceptually simple observation: every Lipschitz…

We consider systems of two specific piecewise linear homeomorphisms of the unit interval, so called the Alsed\`a-Misiurewicz systems, and investigate the basic properties of Markov chains which arise when these two transformations are…
