The generalized Dickman distribution ${\cal D}_\theta$ with parameter $\theta>0$ is the unique solution to the distributional equality $W=_d W^*$, where \begin{eqnarray} W^*=_d U^{1/\theta}(W+1) \qquad (1) \end{eqnarray} with $W$…

We introduce a lattice random walk discretisation scheme for stochastic differential equations (SDEs) that samples binary or ternary increments at each step, suppressing complex drift and diffusion computations to simple 1 or 2 bit random…

In this paper we apply various first and second derivative estimates and barrier constructions from our treatment of oblique boundary value problems for augmented Hessian equations, to the case of Dirichlet boundary conditions. As a result…

We consider the homogeneous Dirichlet problem for the integral fractional Laplacian $(-\Delta)^s$. We prove optimal Sobolev regularity estimates in Lipschitz domains provided the solution is $C^s$ up to the boundary. We present the…

A k-dissimilarity map on a finite set X is a function D : X \choose k \rightarrow R assigning a real value to each subset of X with cardinality k, k \geq 2. Such functions, also sometimes known as k-way dissimilarities, k-way distances, or…

Dirichlet process mixture models (DPMM) play a central role in Bayesian nonparametrics, with applications throughout statistics and machine learning. DPMMs are generally used in clustering problems where the number of clusters is not known…

The decentralized gradient descent (DGD) algorithm, and its sibling, diffusion, are workhorses in decentralized machine learning, distributed inference and estimation, and multi-agent coordination. We propose a novel, principled framework…

In this paper we are concerned with the Bohnenblust--Hille type inequalities for certain polynomials of bounded degree but of very large number of variables. As the polynomials will be defined on groups, one can think about the problem as…

Stein's method has been widely used for probability approximations. However, in the multi-dimensional setting, most of the results are for multivariate normal approximation or for test functions with bounded second- or higher-order…

We consider an anisotropic model case for a strictly convex domain of dimension $d\geq 2$ with smoothboundary and we describe dispersion forthe semi-classical Schr{\"o}dinger equation with Dirichlet boundary condition. More specifically, we…

Formulae are given for $dP_t \phi$, $d^*P_t\phi$ and $\Delta P_t\phi$ for $P_t$ the heat semigroup acting on a q-form $\phi$. The formulae are Brownian motion expectations of $\phi$ composed with random translations determined by…

We study parameter estimation for univariate stochastic differential equations with locally Lipschitz drift and H\"older continuous multiplicative diffusion, a class commonly arising in several applications. Existing inference methods…

We prove a Carleman-type estimate for Dirichlet-stationary multivalued functions and apply it to give a different proof of the optimal dimension of the singular set of Dir-minimizing multivalued functions, originally due to Almgren and to…

For given strongly local Dirichlet forms with possibly degenerate symmetric (sub)-elliptic matrix, we show the existence of weak solutions to the stochastic differential equations (associated with the Dirichlet forms) starting from all…

We introduce a reduction from the distinct distances problem in ${\mathbb R}^d$ to an incidence problem with $(d-1)$-flats in ${\mathbb R}^{2d-1}$. Deriving the conjectured bound for this incidence problem (the bound predicted by the…

This paper is devoted to a fractional generalization of the Dirichlet distribution. The form of the multivariate distribution is derived assuming that the $n$ partitions of the interval $[0,W_n]$ are independent and identically distributed…

For the principal eigenvalue with bilateral Dirichlet boundary condition, the so-called basic estimates were originally obtained by capacitary method. The Neumann case (i.e., the ergodic case) is even harder, and was deduced from the…

Using Carleman estimates, we give a lower bound for solutions to the discrete Schr\"odinger equation in both dynamic and stationary settings that allows us to prove uniqueness results, under some assumptions on the decay of the solutions.

We prove that the gradient of any bounded subharmonic function is upper semi-continuous, provided that its super-level sets can be touched from the exterior by uniform $C^{1,\text{Dini}}$ domains at every point. This idea extends to a class…
