Many results in mass partitions are proved by lifting $\mathbb{R}^d$ to a higher-dimensional space and dividing the higher-dimensional space into pieces. We extend such methods to use lifting arguments to polyhedral surfaces. Among other…

Two popular and often applied methods to obtain two-dimensional point sets with the optimal order of $L_p$ discrepancy are digit scrambling and symmetrization. In this paper we combine these two techniques and symmetrize $b$-adic Hammersley…

We compute the time-dependent coverage in the random sequential adsorption of aligned d-dimensional cubes in $R^d$ using time-series expansions. The seventh-order series in 2, 3 and 4 dimensions is resummed in order to predict the coverage…

Boltzmann machine is a powerful machine learning model with many real-world applications, for example by constructing deep belief networks. Statistical inference on a Boltzmann machine can be carried out by sampling from its posterior…

Suppose a d-dimensional lattice cube of size n^d is colored in several colors so that no face of its triangulation (subdivision of the standard partition into n^d small cubes) is colored in m+2 colors. Then one color is used at least…

Given a set of points $P \subset \mathbb{R}^d$, the $k$-means clustering problem is to find a set of $k$ {\em centers} $C = \{c_1,...,c_k\}, c_i \in \mathbb{R}^d,$ such that the objective function $\sum_{x \in P} d(x,C)^2$, where $d(x,C)$…

We consider composite-composite testing problems for the expectation in the Gaussian sequence model where the null hypothesis corresponds to a convex subset $\mathcal{C}$ of $\mathbb{R}^d$. We adopt a minimax point of view and our primary…

Let X_1, ..., X_n be a sequence of n classical random variables and consider a sample of r positions selected at random. Then, except with (exponentially in r) small probability, the min-entropy of the sample is not smaller than, roughly, a…

We consider the convex hull of a finite sample of i.i.d. points uniformly distributed in a convex body in $\R^d$, $d\geq 2$. We prove an exponential deviation inequality, which leads to rate optimal upper bounds on all the moments of the…

With the aim of generalizing histogram statistics to higher dimensional cases, density estimation via discrepancy based sequential partition (DSP) has been proposed to learn an adaptive piecewise constant approximation defined on a binary…

For a point set of $n$ elements in the $d$-dimensional unit cube and a class of test sets we are interested in the largest volume of a test set which does not contain any point. For all natural numbers $n$, $d$ and under the assumption of a…

Distributionally balanced sampling designs are low-discrepancy probability designs obtained by minimizing the expected discrepancy between the auxiliary-variable distribution of a random sample and the target population distribution.…

We give a comprehensive theoretical characterization of a nonparametric estimator for the $L_2^2$ divergence between two continuous distributions. We first bound the rate of convergence of our estimator, showing that it is…

The Maximum Mean Discrepancy (MMD) is a widely used multivariate distance metric for two-sample testing. The standard MMD test statistic has an intractable null distribution typically requiring costly resampling or permutation approaches…

The diffraction of stochastic point sets, both Bernoulli and Markov, and of random tilings with crystallographic symmetries is investigated in rigorous terms. In particular, we derive the diffraction spectrum of 1D random tilings, of…

Verifying uniform conditions over continuous spaces through random sampling is fundamental in machine learning and control theory, yet classical coverage analyses often yield conservative bounds, particularly at small failure probabilities.…

In this paper, we derive an interior Schauder estimate for the divergence form elliptic equation \begin{equation*} D_i(a(x)D_iu)=D_if_i \end{equation*} in $\mathbb{R}^2$, where $a(x)$ and $f_i(x)$ are piecewise H\"older continuous in a…

Latin hypercube sampling (LHS) is a widely used stratified sampling method in computer experiments. In this work, we extend the existing convergence results for the sample mean under LHS to the broader class of $Z$-estimators, estimators…

The small angle scattering (by a gravitational field) of classical and quantum particles is considered and compared. It is suggested that the differences in small angle scattering of particles with spin 0, 1, 2 are due to the nonzero…

We consider random discrepancy under weighted importance sampling of a class of stratified input. We give the expected $L_p-$discrepancy($2\leq p<\infty$) upper bound in weighted form under a class of stratified sampling. This result…
