We compute the moment of order n of the Poisson stochastic integral of a random process u over a metric space X as a sum that runs over all partitions of {1,...,n} and involves the addition of points to Poisson configurations. This formula…

We study approximate integration of a function $f$ over $[0,1]^s$ based on taking the median of $2r-1$ integral estimates derived from independently randomized $(t,m,s)$-nets in base $2$. The nets are randomized by Matousek's random linear…
This paper introduces the multivariate tail-inflated normal (MTIN) distribution, an elliptical heavy-tails generalization of the multivariate normal (MN). The MTIN belongs to the family of MN scale mixtures by choosing a convenient…
Concentration inequalities are obtained on Poisson space, for random functionals with finite or infinite variance. In particular, dimension free tail estimates and exponential integrability results are given for the Euclidean norm of…
In this paper, we characterize compatibility of distributions and probability measures on a measurable space. For a set of indices $\mathcal J$, we say that the tuples of probability measures $(Q_i)_{i\in \mathcal J} $ and distributions…
In this paper we consider the Riemann--Liouville fractional integral $\mathcal{N}^{\alpha,\nu}(t)= \frac{1}{\Gamma(\alpha)} \int_0^t (t-s)^{\alpha-1}N^\nu(s) \, \mathrm ds $, where $N^\nu(t)$, $t \ge 0$, is a fractional Poisson process of…
This note investigates invariance principles for sums of N(nt) iid radom variables, where n is an integer, t is a positive real number and N(u) is a stochastic process with nonnegative integer values. We show that the sequence of sums of…
A permutation $\sigma$ describing the relative orders of the first $n$ iterates of a point $x$ under a self-map $f$ of the interval $I=[0,1]$ is called an \emph{order pattern}. For fixed $f$ and $n$, measuring the points $x\in I$ (according…
We present a computational strategy for the evaluation of multidimensional integrals on hyper-rectangles based on Markovian stochastic exploration of the integration domain while the integrand is being morphed by starting from an initial…
The method of \emph{random integral representation}, that is, the method of representing a given probability measure as the probability distribution of some random integral, was quite successful in the past few decades. In this note we will…
Given two continuous functions $f,g:I\to\mathbb{R}$ such that $g$ is positive and $f/g$ is strictly monotone, a measurable space $(T,A)$, a measurable family of $d$-variable means $m: I^d\times T\to I$, and a probability measure $\mu$ on…
Using an intrinsic approach, we study some properties of random fields which appear as tail fields of regularly varying stationary random fields. The index set is allowed to be a general locally compact Hausdorff Abelian group $\mathbb{G}$.…

Let $\mathcal{G}$ be a directed graph with vertices $1,2,\ldots, 2N$. Let $\mathcal{T}=(T_{i,j})_{(i,j)\in\mathcal{G}}$ be a family of contractive similitudes. For every $1\leq i\leq N$, let $i^+:=i+N$. For $1\leq i,j\leq N$, we define…
Many statistical estimands of interest (e.g., in regression or causality) are functions of the joint distribution of multiple random variables. But in some applications, data is not available that measures all random variables on each…
Consider bivariate observations $(X_1,Y_1), \ldots, (X_n,Y_n) \in \mathbb{R}\times \mathbb{R}$ with unknown conditional distributions $Q_x$ of $Y$, given that $X = x$. The goal is to estimate these distributions under the sole assumption…
We study fractional smoothness of measures on $\mathbb{R}^k$, that are images of a Gaussian measure under mappings from Gaussian Sobolev classes. As a consequence we obtain Nikolskii--Besov fractional regularity of these distributions under…
