We revisit the problem of condensation for independent, identically distributed random variables with a power-law tail, conditioned by the value of their sum. For large values of the sum, and for a large number of summands, a condensation…

We consider the problem of a state determination for a two-level quantum system which can be in one of two nonorthogonal mixed states. It is proved that for the two independent identical systems the optimal combined measurement (which…

We prove a sharp inequality conjectured by Bobkov on the measure of dilations of Borel sets in $\mathbb{R}^n$ by a $s$-concave probability. Our result gives a common generalization of an inequality of Nazarov, Sodin and Volberg and a…

We show that the convolution of a compactly supported measure on $\mathbb{R}$ with a Gaussian measure satisfies a logarithmic Sobolev inequality (LSI). We use this result to give a new proof of a classical result in random matrix theory…

Entanglement, a key feature of quantum mechanics, is a resource that allows the improvement of precision measurements beyond the conventional bound reachable by classical means. This is known as the standard quantum limit, already defining…

Given $\epsilon \in (0,1)$, a probability measure $\mu$ on $\Omega\subset\mathbb{R}^p$ and a semi-algebraic set $K\subset X\times\Omega$, we consider the feasible set $X^*_\epsilon=\{x\in X:{\rm Prob}[(x,\omega)\in K]\geq 1-\epsilon\}$…

We elucidate the asymptotics of the L^s-quantization error induced by a sequence of L^r-optimal n-quantizers of a probability distribution P on R^d when s>r. In particular we show that under natural assumptions, the optimal rate is…

We establish a connection between the $L^{q}$-spectrum of a Borel measure $\nu $ on the $m$-dimensional unit cube and the approximation order of Kolmogorov diameters of the unit sphere with respect to Sobolev norms in $L_{\nu }^{p}$. This…

Quantization provides a very natural way to preserve the convex order when approximating two ordered probability measures by two finitely supported ones. Indeed, when the convex order dominating original probability measure is compactly…

We prove general upper estimates for the distance between two Borel probability measures in Wasserstein metric in terms of the Fourier transforms of the measures. We work in compact manifolds including the torus, the Euclidean unit sphere,…

The concentration of measure prenomenon roughly states that, if a set $A$ in a product $\Omega^N$ of probability spaces has measure at least one half, ``most'' of the points of $\Omega^N$ are ``close'' to $A$. We proceed to a systematic…

Measurement uncertainty relations are lower bounds on the errors of any approximate joint measurement of two or more quantum observables. The aim of this paper is to provide methods to compute optimal bounds of this type. The basic method…

We consider a class of correlation measures for quantum states called optimized correlation measures, defined as a minimization of a linear combination of von Neumann entropies over purifications of a given state. Examples include the…

A notion of measure solution is formulated for a coagulation-diffusion equation, which is the natural counterpart of Smoluchowski's coagulation equation in a spatially inhomogeneous setting. Some general properties of such solutions are…

Measure homology is a variation of singular homology designed by Thurston in his discussion of simplicial volume. Zastrow and Hansen showed independently that singular homology (with real coefficients) and measure homology coincide…

With the forthcoming release of high precision polarization measurements, such as from the Planck satellite, it becomes critical to evaluate the performance of estimators for the polarization fraction and angle. These two physical…

We compute the exact Hausdorff and Packing measures of linear Cantor sets which might not be self similar or homogeneous . The calculation is based on the local behavior of the natural probability measure supported on the sets.

Let $\mu$ be a Borel measure on a compactum $X$. The main objects in this paper are $\sigma$-ideals $I(dim)$, $J_0(\mu)$, $J_f(\mu)$ of Borel sets in $X$ that can be covered by countably many compacta which are finite-dimensional, or of…

Let $\mu$ and $\nu$ be two probability measures on $\R^d$, where $\mu(\d x)= \e^{-V(x)}\d x$ for some $V\in C^1(\R^d)$. Explicit sufficient conditions on $V$ and $\nu$ are presented such that $\mu*\nu$ satisfies the log-Sobolev, Poincar\'e…

The halfspace depth of a $d$-dimensional point $x$ with respect to a finite (or probability) Borel measure $\mu$ in $\mathbb{R}^d$ is defined as the infimum of the $\mu$-masses of all closed halfspaces containing $x$. A natural question is…
