We devise an abstract, modular scheme to prove continuity of the Lyapunov exponents for a general class of linear cocycles. The main assumption is the availability of appropriate large deviation type (LDT) estimates which are uniform in the…

In this paper the metric theory of Diophantine approximation associated with the small linear forms is investigated. Khintchine-Groshev theorems are established along with Hausdorff measure generalization without the monotonic assumption on…

This article investigates sharp comparison of moments for various classes of random variables appearing in a geometric context. In the first part of our work we find the optimal constants in the Khintchine inequality for random vectors…

We study the expected volume of random polytopes generated by taking the convex hull of independent identically distributed points from a given distribution. We show that for log-concave distributions supported on convex bodies, we need at…

Recently, Beresnevich, Vaughan, Velani, and Zorin (arXiv: 1506.09049) gave some sufficient conditions for a manifold to be of Khinchin type for convergence. We show that their techniques can be used in a more optimal way to yield stronger…

Poincar{\'e} inequalities are ubiquitous in probability and analysis and have various applications in statistics (concentration of measure, rate of convergence of Markov chains). The Poincar{\'e} constant, for which the inequality is tight,…

We propose two least-squares estimators of a discrete probability under the constraint of k-monotony and study their statistical properties. We give a characterization of these estimators based on the decomposition on a spline basis of…

We survey some of the mechanisms used to prove that naturally defined sequences in combinatorics are log-concave. Among these mechanisms are Alexandrov's inequality for mixed discriminants, the Alexandrov Fenchel inequality for mixed…

Within path sampling framework, we show that probability distribution divergences, such as the Chernoff information, can be estimated via thermodynamic integration. The Boltzmann-Gibbs distribution pertaining to different Hamiltonians is…

In this paper, we present a minimal formalism for Stein operators which leads to different probabilistic representations of solutions to Stein equations. These in turn provide a wide family of Stein-Covariance identities which we put to use…

The small-ball method was introduced as a way of obtaining a high probability, isomorphic lower bound on the quadratic empirical process, under weak assumptions on the indexing class. The key assumption was that class members satisfy a…

We prove, using optimal transport tools, weighted Poincar'e inequalities for log-concave random vectors satisfying some centering conditions. We recover by this way similar results by Klartag and Barthe-Cordero-Erausquin for log-concave…

For a $d$-dimensional random vector $X$, let $p_{n, X}(\theta)$ be the probability that the convex hull of $n$ independent copies of $X$ contains a given point $\theta$. We provide several sharp inequalities regarding $p_{n, X}(\theta)$ and…

The Duffin--Schaeffer Conjecture answers a question on how well one can approximate irrationals by rational numbers in reduced form (an imposed condition) where the accuracy of the approximation depends on the rational number. It can be…

In this paper a simple proof of the Chebyshev's inequality for random vectors obtained by Chen (arXiv:0707.0805v2, 2011) is obtained. This inequality gives a lower bound for the percentage of the population of an arbitrary random vector X…

The new estimates of the conditional Shannon entropy are introduced in the framework of the model describing a discrete response variable depending on a vector of d factors having a density w.r.t. the Lebesgue measure in R^d. Namely, the…

We prove the convergence case of Khintchine's theorem, with general approximation functions that are not necessarily monotonic, for analytic nonplanar manifolds over local fields of positive characteristic. Our approach is based on the…

We consider three different approaches to define natural Riemannian metrics on polytopes of stochastic matrices. First, we define a natural class of stochastic maps between these polytopes and give a metric characterization of Chentsov type…

We consider the problem of estimating the number of types in a corpus using the number of types observed in a sample of tokens from that corpus. We derive exact and asymptotic distributions for the number of observed types, conditioned upon…

Aggregation patterns are often visually detected in sets of location data. These clusters may be the result of interesting dynamics or the effect of pure randomness. We build an asymptotically Gaussian test for the hypothesis of randomness…
