A Dirichlet polynomial $d$ in one variable ${\mathcal{y}}$ is a function of the form $d({\mathcal{y}})=a_n n^{\mathcal{y}}+\cdots+a_22^{\mathcal{y}}+a_11^{\mathcal{y}}+a_00^{\mathcal{y}}$ for some $n,a_0,\ldots,a_n\in\mathbb{N}$. We will…
In this paper, we deal with an elliptic problem with the Dirichlet boundary condition. We operate in Sobolev spaces and the main analytic tool we use is the Lax-Milgram lemma. First, we present the variational approach of the problem which…
The aim of this paper is to provide new perspectives on the relative finite elements accuracy. Starting from a geometrical interpretation of the error estimate which can be deduced from Bramble-Hilbert lemma, we derive a probability law…
A generalization of Gy's theory for the variance of the fundamental sampling error is reviewed. Practical situations where the generalized model potentially leads to more accurate variance estimates are identified as: clustering of…
We investigate a Dirichlet problem for the Laplace equation in a domain of $\mathbb{R}^2$ with two small close holes. The domain is obtained by making in a bounded open set two perforations at distance $|\epsilon_1|$ one from the other and…
We propose a probabilistic definition of solutions of semilinear elliptic equations with (possibly nonlocal) operators associated with regular Dirichlet forms and with measure data. Using the theory of backward stochastic differential…
We give elementary examples within a framework for studying decisions under uncertainty where probabilities are only roughly known. The framework, in gambling terms, is that the size of a bet is proportional to the gambler's perceived…
Random walks of n steps taken into independent uniformly random directions in a d-dimensional Euclidean space (d larger than 1), are named Dirichlet when their step lengths are distributed according to a Dirichlet law. The latter continuous…
We use a numerical-analytic technique to construct a sequence of successive approximations to the solution of a system of fractional differential equations, subject to Dirichlet boundary conditions. We prove the uniform convergence of the…
Following the development of weighted asymptotic approximation properties of matrices, we introduce the analogous uniform approximation properties (that is, study the improvability of Dirichlet's Theorem). An added feature is the use of…
Starting with a regular symmetric Dirichlet form on a locally compact separable metric space $X$, our paper studies elements of vector analysis, $L_p$-spaces of vector fields and related Sobolev spaces. These tools are then employed to…
We consider the large-scale regularity of solutions to second-order linear elliptic equations with random coefficient fields. In contrast to previous works on regularity theory for random elliptic operators, our interest is in the…
This paper considers the problem of estimating probabilities of the form $\mathbb{P}(Y \leq w)$, for a given value of $w$, in the situation that a sample of i.i.d.\ observations $X_1, \ldots, X_n$ of $X$ is available, and where we…
This note corrects a technical error in Guardiola (2020, Journal of Statistical Distributions and Applications), presents updated derivations, and offers an extended discussion of the properties of the spherical Dirichlet distribution.…
In this paper, we study the Dirichlet problem for the implicit degen- erate nonlinear elliptic equation with variable exponent in a bounded domain. We obtain sufficient conditions for the existence of a solution with- out regularization and…
For better learning, large datasets are often split into small batches and fed sequentially to the predictive model. In this paper, we study such batch decompositions from a probabilistic perspective. We assume that data points (possibly…
We study pairs of Dirichlet forms related by an intertwining order isomorphisms between the associated $L^2$-spaces. We consider the measurable, the topological and the geometric setting respectively. In the measurable setting, we deal with…
We approximate the distribution of the sum of independent but not necessarily identically distributed Bernoulli random variables using a shifted binomial distribution where the three parameters (the number of trials, the probability of…
In this announcement we consider an eigenvalue problem which arises in the study of rectangular membranes. The mathematical model is an elliptic equation, in potential form, with Dirichlet boundary conditions. We have shown that the…
The Dirichlet form is a generalization of the Laplacian, heavily used in the study of many diffusion-like processes. In this paper we present a nonstandard representation theorem for the Dirichlet form, showing that the usual Dirichlet form…
