We derive so-called weak and strong \textit{max-laws of large numbers} for $% \max_{1\leq i\leq k_{n}}|1/n\sum_{t=1}^{n}x_{i,n,t}|$ for zero mean stochastic triangular arrays $\{x_{i,n,t}$ $:$ $1$ $\leq $ $t$ $\leq n\}_{n\geq 1}$, with…
We consider non-parametric estimation problems in the presence of dependent data, notably non-parametric regression with random design and non-parametric density estimation. The proposed estimation procedure is based on a dimension…
The conditional independence assumption has recently appeared in a growing body of literature on the estimation of multivariate mixtures. We consider here conditionally independent multivariate mixtures of power series distributions with…
The independent set problem, ISP for short, asks for the maximal number of vertices in a (large) graph which can be occupied such that none of them are neighbors. We address the question from a statistical mechanics perspective, in the case…
A {\em maximal inequality} seeks to estimate $\mathbb{E}\max_i X_i$ in terms of properties of the $X_i$. When the latter are independent, the union bound (in its various guises) can yield tight upper bounds. If, however, the $X_i$ are…
We establish the following universality property in high dimensions: Let $X$ be a random vector with density in $\mathbb{R}^n$. The density function can be arbitrary. We show that there exists a fixed unit vector $\theta \in \mathbb{R}^n$…
We consider generic optimal Bayesian inference, namely, models of signal reconstruction where the posterior distribution and all hyperparameters are known. Under a standard assumption on the concentration of the free energy, we show how…
We consider the problem of optimal linear estimation of the functional $$A_N \vec{\xi} =\sum_{j = 0}^{N} (\vec{a}(j))^{\top} \vec{\xi}(j)$$ that depends on the unknown values $\vec{\xi}(j),j=0,1,\dots,N,$ of a vector-valued harmonizable…
Given a quantum system consisting of many parts, we show that symmetry of the system's state, i.e., invariance under swappings of the subsystems, implies that almost all of its parts are virtually identical and independent of each other.…
Let $X=\{X(t),t\in R_+\}$ be a real-valued symmetric L\'{e}vy process with continuous local times $\{L^x_t,(t,x)\in R_+\times R\}$ and characteristic function $Ee^{i\lambda X(t)}=e^{-t\psi(\lambda)}$. Let…
Let $Y=X_1+\cdots+X_N$ be a sum of a random number of exchangeable random variables, where the random variable $N$ is independent of the $X_j$, and the $X_j$ are from the generalized multinomial model introduced by Tallis (1962). This…
Consider a measure $\mu_\lambda = \sum_x \xi_x \delta_x$ where the sum is over points $x$ of a Poisson point process of intensity $\lambda$ on a bounded region in $d$-space, and $\xi_x$ is a functional determined by the Poisson points near…
Statistical inferences for sample correlation matrices are important in high dimensional data analysis. Motivated by this, this paper establishes a new central limit theorem (CLT) for a linear spectral statistic (LSS) of high dimensional…
Given the Hermitian, symmetric and symplectic ensembles, it is shown that the probability that the spectrum belongs to one or several intervals satisfies a nonlinear PDE. This is done for the three classical ensembles: Gaussian, Laguerre…
We consider the problem of bounding large deviations for non-i.i.d. random variables that are allowed to have arbitrary dependencies. Previous works typically assumed a specific dependence structure, namely the existence of independent…
The Bernstein-von Mises theorem (BvM) gives conditions under which the posterior distribution of a parameter $\theta\in\Theta\subseteq\mathbb R^d$ based on $n$ independent samples is asymptotically normal. In the high-dimensional regime, a…
It is often of interest to test a global null hypothesis using multiple, possibly dependent $p$-values by combining their strengths while controlling the type-I error. Recently, several heavy-tailed combination tests, such as the harmonic…
