Talagrand observed that finiteness of $\mathbb{E}\, e^{\frac{1}{2}|\nabla f(X)|^{2}}$ implies finiteness of $\mathbb{E}\, e^{\, f(X)}$ where $X$ is the standard Gaussian vector in $\mathbb{R}^{n}$ and $f$ is a smooth function with zero…
We consider iterated function systems on the real line that consist of continuous, piecewise linear functions. We show that typically the natural dimension of these systems changes continuously with respect to the parameters that define the…
We refine Epstein's method to prove joint concavity/convexity of matrix trace functions of Lieb type $\mathrm{Tr}\,f(\Phi(A^p)^{1/2}\Psi(B^q)\Phi(A^p)^{1/2})$ and symmetric (anti-) norm functions of the form…
Using a natural representation of a $1/s$-concave function on $\mathbb{R}^d$ as a convex set in $\mathbb{R}^{d+1},$ we derive a simple formula for the integral of its $s$-polar. This leads to convexity properties of the integral of the…

The evaluation of a matrix exponential function is a classic problem of computational linear algebra. Many different methods have been employed for its numerical evaluation [Moler C and van Loan C 1978 SIAM Review 20 4], none of which…
We provide a refined explicit estimate of exponential decay rate of underdamped Langevin dynamics in $L^2$ distance, based on a framework developed in [1]. To achieve this, we first prove a Poincar\'{e}-type inequality with Gibbs measure in…
In this paper, we study power series with coefficients equal to a product of a generic sequence and an explicitly given function of a positive parameter expressible in terms of the Pochhammer symbols. Four types of such series are treated.…

We introduce a class of distributions originating from an exponential family and having a property related to the strict stability property. A characteristic function representation for this family is obtained and its properties are…
Functions that are piecewise defined are a common sight in mathematics while convexity is a property especially desired in optimization. Suppose now a piecewise-defined function is convex on each of its defining components - when can we…

We conjecture that the Parisi functional in the SK model is convex in the functional order parameter and prove a partial result that shows the convexity along one-sided directions. A consequence of this result is log-convexity of L_1 norm…
Divergent solutions are ubiquitous with perturbation methods. We use continued function such as continued exponential to converge divergent series in perturbation approaches for energy eigenvalues of Helium, Stark effect and Zeeman effect…
