Answering an informal question of K. Park, we show that by fixing some irrational alpha to have a particular standard continued fraction expansion, we may force the associated discrepancy sequences for all x in [0,1), which track the…
We study convergence properties of sparse averages of partial sums of Fourier series of continuous functions. By sparse averages, we are considering an increasing sequences of integers $n_0 < n_1 < n_2 < ...$ and looking at…
It is reported that the phase time of particles which are reflected by a one-dimensional semi-harmonic well includes a time delay term which is negative for definite intervals of the incoming energy. In this interval, the absolute value of…
Consider a passive scalar which is advected by an incompressible flow $u$ and has small molecular diffusivity $\kappa$. Previous results show that if $u$ is exponentially mixing and $C^1$, then the dissipation time is $O(|\log \kappa|^2)$.…
We study time-reversal symmetry in dynamical systems with finite phase space, with applications to birational maps reduced over finite fields. For a polynomial automorphism with a single family of reversing symmetries, a universal (i.e.,…
In this paper we show that, if an increasing sequence $\Lambda=(\lambda_k)_{k\in\mathbb{Z}}$ has gaps going to infinity $\lambda_{k+1}-\lambda_k\to +\infty$ when $k\to\pm\infty$, then for every $T>0$ and every sequence…
We investigate the possibility of the existence of nonsparse strongly summable ultrafilters on certain abelian groups. In particular, we show that every strongly summable ultrafilter on the countably infinite Boolean group is sparse. This…
In high-dimensional statistical inference, sparsity regularizations have shown advantages in consistency and convergence rates for coefficient estimation. We consider a generalized version of Sparse-Group Lasso which captures both…
We derive and prove an explicit formula for the sum of the fractional parts of certain geometric series. Although the proof is straightforward, we have been unable to locate any reference to this result. This summation formula allows us to…
In this article, for a time-fractional diffusion-wave equation $\pppa u(x,t) = -Au(x,t)$, $0<t<T$ with fractional order $\alpha \in (1,2)$, we consider the backward problem in time: determine $u(\cdot,t)$, $0<t<T$ by $u(\cdot,T)$ and…
A well known theorem of Lagrange states that the simple continued fraction of a real number $\alpha$ is periodic if and only if $\alpha$ is a quadratic irrational. We examine non-periodic and non-simple continued fractions formed by two…
The paper investigates recoverability of discrete time signals represented by infinite sequences from incomplte observations. It is shown that there exist wide classes of signals that are everywhere dense in the space of square-summable…
We compute the limiting distribution, as n approaches infinity, of the number of cycles of length between gamma n and delta n in a permutation of [n] chosen uniformly at random, for constants gamma, delta such that 1/(k+1) <= gamma < delta…
Exponential averages that appear in integral fluctuation theorems can be recast as a sum over moments of thermodynamic observables. We use two examples to show that such moment series can exhibit non-uniform convergence in certain singular…
A celebrated result of Pollard proves asymptotic consistency for $k$-means clustering when the population distribution has finite variance. In this work, we point out that the population-level $k$-means clustering problem is, in fact,…
We study a large class of suspension semiflows which contains the Lorenz semiflows. This is a class with low regularity (merely C^{1+\alpha}) and where the return map is discontinuous and the return time is unbounded. We establish the…
We answer two questions of Hindman, Stepr\=ans and Strauss, namely we prove that every strongly summable ultrafilter on an abelian group is sparse and has the trivial sums property. Moreover we show that in most cases the sparseness of the…
We present an analysis of ensemble Kalman inversion, based on the continuous time limit of the algorithm. The analysis of the dynamical behaviour of the ensemble allows us to establish well-posedness and convergence results for a fixed…
Fluctuations due to a super-position of uncorrelated Lorentzian pulses with a random distribution of amplitudes and duration times are considered. These are demonstrated to be strongly intermittent in the limit of weak pulse overlap,…
We analyze equilibration times of subsystems of a larger system under a random total Hamiltonian, in which the basis of the Hamiltonian is drawn from the Haar measure. We obtain that the time of equilibration is of the order of the inverse…
