Let $X_1,\ldots,X_n$ be a random sample from the Gamma distribution with density $f(x)=\lambda^{\alpha}x^{\alpha-1}e^{-\lambda x}/\Gamma(\alpha)$, $x>0$, where both $\alpha>0$ (the shape parameter) and $\lambda>0$ (the reciprocal scale…
We propose a new notion of variable bandwidth that is based on the spectral subspaces of an elliptic operator $A_pf = - (pf')'$ where $p>0$ is a strictly positive function. Denote by $c_{\Lambda} (A_p)$ the orthogonal projection of $A_p$…
Ratios of integrals can be bounded in terms of ratios of integrands under certain monotonicity conditions. This result, related with L'H\^{o}pital's monotone rule, can be used to obtain sharp bounds for cumulative distribution functions. We…
