In this paper we consider the problem of estimating the parameters of a Poisson arrival process where the rate function is assumed to lie in the span of a known basis. Our goal is to estimate the basis expansions coefficients given a…

In this paper we consider the approximation of a function by its interpolating multilinear spline and the approximation of its derivatives by the derivatives of the corresponding spline. We derive formulas for the uniform approximation…
There has been recent interest in the conditional central limit question for (strictly) stationary, ergodic processes $...,X_{-1},X_0,X_1,...$ whose partial sums $S_n=X_1+...+X_n$ are of the form $S_n=M_n+R_n$, where $M_n$ is a square…
For a finite function class we describe the large sample limit of the sequential Rademacher complexity in terms of the viscosity solution of a $G$-heat equation. In the language of Peng's sublinear expectation theory, the same quantity…
Given a multi-variable polynomial, there is an associated divided symmetrization (in particular turning it into a symmetric function). Postinkov has found the volume of a permutohedron as a divided symmetrization (DS) of the power of a…
Following Wigert, various authors, including Ramanujan, Gronwall, Erd\H{o}s, Ivi\'{c}, Schwarz, Wirsing, and Shiu, determined the maximal order of several multiplicative functions, generalizing Wigert's result $$\max_{n\leq x} \log d(n) =…
We investigate conditions in order to decide whether a given sequence of real numbers represents expected maxima or expected ranges. The main result provides a novel necessary and sufficient condition, relating an expected maxima sequence…
We present an explicit formula for the expected value of a product of several independent symplectically invariant matrices in which the trace and real part function may be applied, possibly to different subexpressions. This takes the form…
Pipelined Krylov methods seek to ameliorate the latency due to inner products necessary for projection by overlapping it with the computation associated with sparse matrix-vector multiplication. We clarify a folk theorem that this can only…
Let $\sigma(x,\xi) $ be a sufficiently regular function defined on $R^d \times R^d.$ The pseudo-differential operator with symbol $\sigma$ is defined on the Schwartz class by the formula: \[f\to\sigma f(x)=\int_{R^d} \sigma(x,\xi)…
We state and analyze a generalization of the "truncation trick" suggested by Gourdon and Sebah to improve the performance of power series evaluation by binary splitting. It follows from our analysis that the values of D-finite functions…

Given a semigroup $S$ equipped with an involutive automorphism $\sigma$, we determine the complex-valued solutions $f,g,h$ of the functional equation \begin{equation*}f(x\sigma(y))=f(x)g(y)+g(x)f(y)+h(x)h(y),\,\,x,y\in S,\end{equation*} in…
We prove that a sequence of semi-discrete approximations converges to a multiplicative functional for reflected Brownian motion, which intuitively represents the Lyapunov exponent for the corresponding stochastic flow. The method of proof…
Finite trigonometric sums occur in various branches of physics, mathematics, and their applications. These sums may contain various powers of one or more trigonometric functions. Sums with one trigonometric function are known, however sums…
The approximation of integral functionals with respect to a stationary Markov process by a Riemann-sum estimator is studied. Stationarity and the functional calculus of the infinitesimal generator of the process are used to get a better…
