We consider stochastic dynamic programming problems with high-dimensional, discrete state-spaces and finite, discrete-time horizons that prohibit direct computation of the value function from a given Bellman equation for all states and time…
We find best constants in several dilation invariant integral inequalities involving derivatives of functions. Some of these inequalities are new and some were known without best constants. The contents: 1. Estimate for a quadratic form of…
In this paper, we establish a new inequality tying together the effective length and the maximum correlation between the outputs of an arbitrary pair of Boolean functions which operate on two sequences of correlated random variables. We…
Several estimates for singular integrals, maximal functions and the spherical summation operator are given in the spaces $L^p_{\text{rad}}L^2_{\text{ang}}(\mathbb{R}^n)$, $n\geq 2$.
Let $\xi$ be an integrable random variable defined on $(\Omega, \mathcal{F}, \mathbb{P})$. Fix $k\in \mathbb{Z}_+$ and let $\{\mathcal{G}_{i}^{j}\}_{1\le i \le n, 1\le j \le k}$ be a reference family of sub-$\sigma$-fields of $\mathcal{F}$,…
Motivated by uncertain parameters encountered in Markov decision processes (MDPs), we study the effect of parameter uncertainty on Bellman operator-based methods. Specifically, we consider a family of MDPs where the cost parameters are from…
In this paper it is proposed a very simple method for estimating the maximal operator in $L_1$. Using this method one can considerably improve the existing theorems on convergence almost-everywhere of eigenfunction expansions of an…
In this paper we prove several weighted estimates for bilinear fractional integral operators and their commutators with BMO functions. We also prove maximal function control theorem for these operators, that is, we prove the weighted $L^p$…
In this paper, we give a survey of results obtained recently by the present authors on real-variable characterizations of Bergman spaces, which are closely related to maximal and area integral functions in terms of the Bergman metric. In…
Let $\mathcal{B}$ denote a collection of open bounded sets in $\mathbb{R}^n$, and define the associated maximal operator $M_{\mathcal{B}}$ by $$ M_{\mathcal{B}}f(x) := \sup_{x \in R \in \mathcal{B}} \frac{1}{|R|}\int_R |f|. $$ The sharp…
We consider three problems for the Helmholtz equation in interior and exterior domains in R^d (d=2,3): the exterior Dirichlet-to-Neumann and Neumann-to-Dirichlet problems for outgoing solutions, and the interior impedance problem. We derive…
We obtain sharp estimates for the localized distribution function of M\phi, when \phi belongs to Lp,\inf where M is the dyadic maximal operator. We obtain these estimates given the L1 and Lq norm, q < p and certain weak Lp-conditions.
In this paper, we derive a local Carleman estimate for the complex second order elliptic operator with Lipschitz coefficients having jump discontinuities. Combing the result in [BL] and the arguments in [DcFLVW], we present an elementary…
Multiparameter maximal estimates are considered for operators of Schr\"odinger type. Sharp and almost sharp results, that extend work by Rogers and Villarroya, are obtained. We provide new estimates via the integrability of the kernel which…
We consider how to use the Bellman residual of the dynamic programming operator to compute suboptimality bounds for solutions to stochastic shortest path problems. Such bounds have been previously established only in the special case that…
We derive sharp quantitative bounds for eigenvalues of biharmonic operators perturbed by complex-valued potentials in dimensions one, two and three.
New exact upper and lower bounds are derived on the spectrum of the square of the hermitian Wilson Dirac operator. It is hoped that the derivations and the results will be of help in the search for ways to reduce the cost of simulations…
We consider the 3-dimensional Stark operator perturbed by a complex-valued potential. We obtain an estimate for the number of eigenvalues of this operator as well as for the sum of imaginary parts of eigenvalues situated in the upper…
We get optimal lower bounds for the eigenvalues of the submanifold Dirac operator on locally reducible Riemannian manifolds in terms of intrinsic and extrinsic expressions. The limiting-cases are also studied. As a corollary, one gets…
For any nonempty set $U\subset\R^+$, we consider the maximal operator $\h^U$ defined as $\h^Uf=\sup_{u\in U}|H^{(u)} f|$, where $H^{(u)}$ represents the Hilbert transform along the monomial curve $u\gamma(s)$. We focus on the…
