In this paper we prove a L\'evy-Ottaviani type of property for the Bernoulli process defined on an interval. Namely, we show that under certain conditions on functions $(a_i)_{i=1}^{n}$ and for independent Bernoulli random variables…
Let $(\mathbf{B}, \|\cdot\|)$ be a real separable Banach space. Let $\varphi(\cdot)$ and $\psi(\cdot)$ be two continuous and increasing functions defined on $[0, \infty)$ such that $\varphi(0) = \psi(0) = 0$, $\lim_{t \rightarrow \infty}…
For $p\ge 1$ let $\varphi_p(x)=x^2/2$ if $|x|\le 1$ and $\varphi_p(x)=1/p|x|^p-1/p+1/2$ if $|x|>1$. For a random variable $\xi$ let $\tau_{\varphi_p}(\xi)$ denote $\inf\{a\ge 0:\;\forall_{\lambda\in\mathbb{R}}\;…
We prove the Shepp--Olkin conjecture, which states that the entropy of the sum of independent Bernoulli random variables is concave in the parameters of the individual random variables. Our proof is a refinement of an argument previously…
We prove that a self similar measure is absolutely continuous providing that it satisfies a condition depending on its Garsia entropy, contraction ratio, and the separation between different points in approximations of the self similar…
The Bernoulli convolution with parameter $\lambda\in(0,1)$ is the probability measure $\mu_\lambda$ that is the law of the random variable $\sum_{n\ge0}\pm\lambda^n$, where the signs are independent unbiased coin tosses. We prove that each…
We establish a generic symmetrization property for dependent random variables $\{x_{t}\}_{t=1}^{n}$ on $\mathbb{R}^{p}$, where $p$ $>>$ $n$ is allowed. We link $\mathbb{E}\psi (\max_{1\leq i\leq p}|1/n\sum_{t=1}^{n}(x_{i,t}$ $-$…
In this paper, we establish an extension of a noncommutative Bennett inequality with a parameter $1\leq r\leq2$ and use it together with some noncommutative techniques to establish a Rosenthal inequality. We also present a noncommutative…
In this article, we provide an extension of the Chen-Stein inequality for Poisson approximation in the total variation distance for sums of independent Bernoulli random variables in two ways. We prove that we can improve the rate of…
We provide sufficient conditions on the profile $\varphi$, on the sequence of random variables $\varepsilon_j>0$ and on the sequence of random vectors $y_j\in\mathbb{R}^n$ such that…
The article starts with generalizations of some classical results and new truncation error upper bounds in the sampling theorem for bandlimited stochastic processes. Then, it investigates $L_p([0,T])$ and uniform approximations of…
We consider the entropy of sums of independent discrete random variables, in analogy with Shannon's Entropy Power Inequality, where equality holds for normals. In our case, infinite divisibility suggests that equality should hold for…
We observe the actions of a $K$ sub-sample of $N$ individuals up to time $t$ for some large $K<N$. We model the relationships of individuals by i.i.d. Bernoulli($p$)-random variables, where $p\in (0,1]$ is an unknown parameter. The rate of…
We obtain the tail probability of generalized sub-Gaussian canonical processes. It can be viewed as a variant of the Bernstein-type inequality in the i.i.d case, and we further get a tighter bound of concentration inequality through…
Many random combinatorial objects have a component structure whose joint distribution is equal to that of a process of mutually independent random variables, conditioned on the value of a weighted sum of the variables. It is interesting to…
We study approximation in the unit interval by rational numbers whose numerators are selected randomly with certain probabilities. Previous work showed that an analogue of Khintchine's Theorem holds in a similar random model and raised the…
In this paper, we explore two conjectures about Rademacher sequences. Let $(\epsilon_i)$ be a Rademacher sequence, i.e., a sequence of independent $\{-1,1\}$-valued symmetric random variables. Set $S_n=a_1\epsilon_1+\cdots+a_n\epsilon_n$…
The Bernoulli convolution $\nu_\lambda$ with parameter $\lambda\in(0,1)$ is the probability measure supported on $\mathbf{R}$ that is the law of the random variable $\sum\pm\lambda^n$, where the $\pm$ are independent fair coin-tosses. We…
Using the Hellmann-Feynman theorem, a general comparison theorem is established for an eigenvalue equation of the form $(T+V)|\psi> = E|\psi>$, where $T$ is a kinetic part which depends only on momentums and $V$ is a potential which depends…
Let $f:\mathbb{R}^k\to \mathbb{R}$ be a measurable function, and let $\{U_i\}_{i\in\mathbb{N}}$ be a sequence of i.i.d. random variables. Consider the random process $Z_i=f(U_{i},...,U_{i+k-1})$. We show that for all $\ell$, there is a…
