We establish Burkholder-Davis-Gundy-type inequalities for stochastic Volterra integrals with a completely monotone convolution kernel, which may exhibit singular behaviour at the origin. When the supremum is taken over a finite interval,…

We obtain a Bernstein-type inequality for sums of Banach-valued random variables satisfying a weak dependence assumption of general type and under certain smoothness assumptions of the underlying Banach norm. We use this inequality in order…

In this paper, we first derive an inequality involving central moments for n real numbers, which in turn provides an extension of Theorem 2.2 of Wolkowicz and Styan [18]. Furthermore, we present refinements of various inequalities obtained…

This article deals with a variation of constants type inequality for semigroups acting consistently on a scale of Banach spaces. This inequality can be characterized by a corresponding (easy to verify) inequality for their generators. The…

Self-normalized processes arise naturally in statistical applications. Being unit free, they are not affected by scale changes. Moreover, self-normalization often eliminates or weakens moment assumptions. In this paper we present several…

A generic non-integrable (unitary) out-of-equilibrium quantum process, when interrogated across many times, is shown to yield the same statistics as an (non-unitary) equilibrated process. In particular, using the tools of quantum stochastic…
