We examine the minimization of information entropy for measures on the phase space of bounded domains, subject to constraints that are averages of grand canonical distributions. We describe the set of all such constraints and show that it…

We study the probability distribution of the area and the number of vertices of random polygons in a convex set $K\subset\mathbb{R}^2$. The novel aspect of our approach is that it yields uniform estimates for all convex sets…

We focus on a sequence of functions $\{f_n\}$, defined on a compact manifold with boundary $S$, converging in the $C^k$ metric to a limit $f$. A common assumption implicitly made in the empirical sciences is that when such functions…

We point out a simple criterion for convergence of polynomials to a concrete entire function in the Laguerre-P\'{o}lya ($\mathcal{LP}$) class (of all functions arising as uniform limits of polynomials with only real roots). We then use this…

We derive novel concentration inequalities for the operator norm of the sum of self-adjoint operators that do not explicitly depend on the underlying dimension of the operator, but rather an intrinsic notion of it. Our analysis leads to…

Devoted to multi-task learning and structured output learning, operator-valued kernels provide a flexible tool to build vector-valued functions in the context of Reproducing Kernel Hilbert Spaces. To scale up these methods, we extend the…

It is proved recently by Benamara-Nikolski that a contraction having finite defects and spectrum not filling in the closed unit disc, is similar to a normal operator if and only if it has the so-called linear resolvent growth property. We…

We study compositions of a positive integer $n$ in which the occurrence of even parts larger than a fixed threshold $k$ is controlled. More precisely, for each composition $m=(m_1,\dots,m_r)$ we consider the number of even parts strictly…

We develop large sample theory for merged data from multiple sources. Main statistical issues treated in this paper are (1) the same unit potentially appears in multiple datasets from overlapping data sources, (2) duplicated items are not…

Many branches of theoretical and applied mathematics require a quantifiable notion of complexity. One such circumstance is a topological dynamical system - which involves a continuous self-map on a metric space. There are many notions of…

Let $G$ be a finite abelian group and $A$ a subset of $G$. The spectrum of $A$ is the set of its large Fourier coefficients. Known combinatorial results on the structure of spectrum, such as Chang's theorem, become trivial in the regime…

We characterize lower bounds for the Bakry-Emery Ricci tensor of nonsymmetric diffusion operators by convexity of entropy on the $L^2$-Wasserstein space, and define a curvature-dimension condition for general metric measure spaces together…

Information plays an important role in our understanding of the physical world. We hence propose an entropic measure of information for any physical theory that admits systems, states and measurements. In the quantum and classical world,…

We consider universal approximations of symmetric and anti-symmetric functions, which are important for applications in quantum physics, as well as other scientific and engineering computations. We give constructive approximations with…

It is shown how tools from the area of Model Theory, specifically from the Theory of o-minimality, can be used to prove that a class of functions is VC-subgraph (in the sense of Dudley, 1987), and therefore satisfies a uniform polynomial…

We identify subsets of the joint numerical range of an operator tuple in terms of its joint spectrum. This result helps us to transfer weak convergence of operator orbits into certain approximation and interpolation properties for powers in…

Let n points be taken at random on a circle of unit circumference and clockwise ordered. Uniform spacings are defined as the clockwise arc-lengths between the successive points from this sample. We are interested in the asymptotic behavior…

We introduce a finite element construction for use on the class of convex, planar polygons and show it obtains a quadratic error convergence estimate. On a convex n-gon satisfying simple geometric criteria, our construction produces 2n…

We generalize the embedding formalism for conformal field theories to the case of general operators with mixed symmetry. The index-free notation encoding symmetric tensors as polynomials in an auxiliary polarization vector is extended to…

This paper is devoted to primal conditions of error bounds for a general function. In terms of Bouligand tangent cones, lower Hadamard directional derivatives and the Hausdorff-Pompeiu excess of subsets, we provide several necessary and/or…
