We show that under minimal assumptions on a class of functions $\mathcal{H}$ defined on a probability space $(\mathcal{X},\mu)$, there is a threshold $\Delta_0$ satisfying the following: for every $\Delta\geq\Delta_0$, with probability at…

This paper investigates the generalized convexity properties of the Lambert $W$ function, defined as the solution to $W(z)e^{W(z)}=z$. Focusing on $H_{p,q}$-convexity and concavity with respect to H\"older means, we derive necessary and…

We introduce and study the median maximal function \mathcal{M} f, defined in the same manner as the classical Hardy-Littlewood maximal function, only replacing integral averages of f by medians throughout the definition. This change has a…

We derive the limiting waiting-time distribution $F_W$ of a model described by the Lindley-type equation $W=\max\{0, B - A - W\}$, where $B$ has a polynomial distribution. This exact solution is applied to derive approximations of $F_W$…

Normal mixture distributions are arguably the most important mixture models, and also the most technically challenging. The likelihood function of the normal mixture model is unbounded based on a set of random samples, unless an artificial…

For some smooth special case of generalized $\varphi-$divergences as well as of new divergences (called scaled shift divergences), we derive approximations of the omnipresent (weighted) $\ell_{1}-$distance and (weighted) $\ell_{1}-$norm.

In this paper, we use the framework of mod-$\phi$ convergence to prove precise large or moderate deviations for quite general sequences of real valued random variables $(X_{n})_{n \in \mathbb{N}}$, which can be lattice or non-lattice…

We establish a new $W^{1,2\frac{n-1}{n-2}}$ estimate for the extremal solution of $-\Delta u=\lambda f(u)$ in a smooth bounded domain $\Omega$ of $\mathbb{R}^n$, which is convex, for arbitrary positive and increasing nonlinearities $f\in…

This note extends the results of classical parametric statistics like Fisher and Wilks theorem to modern setups with a high or infinite parameter dimension, limited sample size, and possible model misspecification. We consider a special…

We study the influence of boundary conditions on self-affine random functions u(t) in the interval t/L \in [0,1], with independent Gaussian Fourier modes of variance ~ 1/q^{\alpha}. We consider the probability distribution of the mean…

We use a new method via $p$-Wasserstein bounds to prove Cram\'er-type moderate deviations in (multivariate) normal approximations. In the classical setting that $W$ is a standardized sum of $n$ independent and identically distributed…

Estimates are constructed for the deviation of the concentration functions of sums of independent random variables with finite variances from the folded normal distribution function without any assumptions concerning the existence of the…

The Lambert W function, implicitly defined by W(x) exp{W(x)}=x, is a "new" special function that has recently been the subject of an extended upsurge in interest and applications. In this note, I point out that the Lambert W function can…

Let $ \nu $ be a probability distribution over the linear semi-group $ \mathrm{End}(E) $ for $ E $ a finite dimensional vector space over a locally compact field. We assume that $ \nu $ is proximal, strongly irreducible and that $…

Let $M$ be a compact connected Riemannian manifold possibly with a boundary, let $V\in C^2(M)$ such that $\mu(d x):=e^{V(x)}d x$ is a probability measure, and let $\{\lambda_i\}_{i\ge 1} $ be all non-trivial eigenvalues of $-L$ with Neumann…

Let $Z$ and $W$ be a pair of point distributions of finite upper density on the complex plane $\mathbb C$ with the real axis $\mathbb R$. We give several variants of necessary and at the same time sufficient conditions for their…

Under the assumption that the distribution of a nonnegative random variable $X$ admits a bounded coupling with its size biased version, we prove simple and strong concentration bounds. In particular the upper tail probability is shown to…

We establish explicit bounds on the convex distance between the distribution of a vector of smooth functionals of a Gaussian field, and that of a normal vector with a positive definite covariance matrix. Our bounds are commensurate to the…

The purpose of this article is to develop a general parametric estimation theory that allows the derivation of the limit distribution of estimators in non-regular models where the true parameter value may lie on the boundary of the…

The classical ``$H=W$" theorem establishes the identity between two function spaces on an arbitrary nonempty open set in the Euclidean spaces: the space $W$ defined via weak derivatives, and the space $H$ defined as the closure of smooth…
