Finding the sparsest solution $\alpha$ for an under-determined linear system of equations $D\alpha=s$ is of interest in many applications. This problem is known to be NP-hard. Recent work studied conditions on the support size of $\alpha$…

We prove the almost sure invariance principle for stationary R^d--valued processes (with dimension-independent very precise error terms), solely under a strong assumption on the characteristic functions of these processes. This assumption…

It has been shown that space-time coordinates can exhibit only very few types of short-distance structures, if described by linear operators: they can be continuous, discrete or "unsharp" in one of two ways. In the literature, various…
