The problem of finding an optimum using noisy evaluations of a smooth cost function arises in many contexts, including economics, business, medicine, experiment design, and foraging theory. We derive an asymptotic bound E[ (x_t - x*)^2 ] >=…
The elliptic flow v2 is presented for the Cu+Cu collisions at sqrt{s_NN} = 62.4 and 200 GeV, as a function of pseudorapidity. Comparison to results for the Au+Au collisions at the same energies shows a reduction of about 20% in the flow…
If $P(x)$ is the error term in the circle problem, then it is proved that $$\int_0^\infty P^2(x)e^{-x/T}dx = {1\over4}({T\over\pi})^{3/2} \sum_{n=1}^\infty r^2(n)n^{-3/2} - T + O_\epsilon(T^{2/3+\epsilon}), $$ improving the author's earlier…
It is proved that interval quadrature formula of the form $$ q(f)=\sum\limits_{k=1}^nc_k\frac 1{2h}\int\limits_{x_k-h}^{x_k+h}f(t)dt $$ ($c_k\in \RR, \, x_1+h<x_2-h<x_2+h<...<x_n-h<x_n+h<x_1+2\pi -h$) with equal $c_k$ and equidistant $x_k$…

The present paper is devoted to construction of an optimal quadrature formula for approximation of Fourier integrals in the Hilbert space $W_2^{(1,0)}[a,b]$ of non-periodic, complex valued functions. Here the quadrature sum consists of…
Let $\Delta(x)$ denote the error term in the Dirichlet divisor problem, and $E(T)$ the error term in the asymptotic formula for the mean square of $|\zeta(1/2+it)|$. If $E^*(t) = E(t) - 2\pi\Delta^*(t/2\pi)$ with $\Delta^*(x) = -\Delta(x) +…
We provide tools to help automate the error analysis of algorithms that evaluate simple functions over the floating-point numbers. The aim is to obtain tight relative error bounds for these algorithms, expressed as a function of the unit…
In this paper, we focus on the approximation of smooth functions $f: [-\pi, \pi] \rightarrow \mathbb{C}$, up to an unresolvable global phase ambiguity, from a finite set of Short Time Fourier Transform (STFT) magnitude (i.e., spectrogram)…
We establish a relation between the approximation in $L^2[-\pi,\pi]$ by exponentials with the set of frequencies of Beurling--Malliavin density less than $1$ and the meromorphic interpolation at $\mathbb Z$. Furthermore, we show that…
The Equivalent Effect Function (EEF) is defined as having the identical integral values on the control points of the original time series data; the EEF can be obtained from the derivative of the spline function passing through the integral…
We study estimation of a multivariate function $f:\mathbf{R}^d\to\mathbf{R}$ when the observations are available from the function $Af$, where $A$ is a known linear operator. Both the Gaussian white noise model and density estimation are…
In minimum bias (0-80%) Au+Au collisions at $\sqrt{s_{NN}}$=200 GeV, the elliptic flow ($v_{2}$) measurements for di-electrons from the low to intermediate mass region are presented. The differential elliptic flow as a function of…
We provide an a priori analysis of collocation methods for solving elliptic boundary value problems. They begin with information in the form of point values of the data and utilize only this information to numerically approximate the…
The paper is concerned with a free boundary problem generated by the biharmonic operator and an obstacle. The main goal is to deduce a fully guaranteed upper bound of the difference between the exact minimizer u and any function…
In this short note, we establish the following result: Let $f:[0,+\infty[\to [0,+\infty[$, $\alpha:[0,1]\to ]0,+\infty[$ be two continuous functions, with $f(0)=0$. Assume that, for some $a>0$, the function $\xi\to…
We analyze univariate oscillatory integrals defined on the real line for functions from the standard Sobolev space $H^s({\mathbb{R}})$ and from the space $C^s({\mathbb{R}})$ with an arbitrary integer $s\ge1$. We find tight upper and lower…
We formulate a plausible conjecture for the optimal Ehrhard-type inequality for convex symmetric sets with respect to the Gaussian measure. Namely, letting $J_{k-1}(s)=\int^s_0 t^{k-1} e^{-\frac{t^2}{2}}dt$ and $c_{k-1}=J_{k-1}(+\infty)$,…
We improve the error term in the van der Corput transform for exponential sums \sum_{a \le n \le b} g(n) exp(2\pi i f(n)). For many functions g and f, we can extract the next term in the asymptotic, showing that previous results, such as…
