We consider a nonparametric Bayesian approach to estimation and testing for a multivariate monotone density. Instead of following the conventional Bayesian route of putting a prior distribution complying with the monotonicity restriction,…

We prove that for any $2<p<\infty$ and for every $n$-dimensional subspace $X$ of $L_p$, represented on $\mathbb R^n$, whose unit ball $B_X$ is in Lewis' position one has the following two-level Gaussian concentration inequality: \[ \mathbb…

Discrete forms of the mean and directed curvature are constructed on piecewise flat manifolds, providing local curvature approximations for smooth manifolds embedded in both Euclidean and non-Euclidean spaces. The resulting expressions take…

On a complete, connected, locally compact, non-compact geodesic space $(X,d)$, we assign each compact set a distance-like function. With the help of these functions, we obtain a pseudo-metric on the space of (non-empty) compact subsets of…

Convexity is a key concept in information theory, namely via the many implications of Jensen's inequality, such as the non-negativity of the Kullback-Leibler divergence (KLD). Jensen's inequality also underlies the concept of Jensen-Shannon…

We deal with a reverse Carleson measure inequality for the tent spaces of analytic functions in the unit disc $\mathbb{D}$ of the complex plane. The tent spaces of measurable functions were introduced by Coifman, Meyer and Stein. Let $1\leq…

Statistical depths provide a fundamental generalization of quantiles and medians to data in higher dimensions. This paper proposes a new type of globally defined statistical depth, based upon control theory and eikonal equations, which…

For a probability P in $R^d$ its center outward distribution function $F_{\pm}$, introduced in Chernozhukov et al. (2017) and Hallin et al. (2021), is a new and successful concept of multivariate distribution function based on mass…

We derive out naturally some important distributions such as high order normal distributions and high order exponent distributions and the Gamma distribution from a geometrical way. Further, we obtain the exact mean-values of integral form…

Given a probability measure $\mu $ on ${\mathbb R}^n$, Tukey's half-space depth is defined for any $x\in {\mathbb R}^n$ by $\varphi_{\mu }(x)=\inf\{\mu (H):H\in {\cal H}(x)\}$, where ${\cal H}(x)$ is the set of all half-spaces $H$ of…

For a broad class of integral functionals defined on the space of $n$-dimensional convex bodies, we establish necessary and sufficient conditions for monotonicity, and necessary conditions for the validity of a Brunn-Minkowski type…

Kernel techniques are among the most popular and flexible approaches in data science allowing to represent probability measures without loss of information under mild conditions. The resulting mapping called mean embedding gives rise to a…

In this paper we prove some analogue of Wiman's type inequality for random analytic functions in the polydisc $\mathbb{D}^p=\{z\in\mathbb{C}^p\colon |z_j|<1, j\in\{1,\ldots,p\}\},\ p\in\mathbb{Z}_+$. The obtained inequality is sharp.

Finite volume methods for problems involving second order operators with full diffusion matrix can be used thanks to the definition of a discrete gradient for piecewise constant functions on unstructured meshes satisfying an orthogonality…

It is shown that under suitable regularity conditions, differential entropy is a Lipschitz functional on the space of distributions on $n$-dimensional Euclidean space with respect to the quadratic Wasserstein distance. Under similar…

We study the statistical complexity of estimating partition functions given sample access to a proposal distribution and an unnormalized density ratio for a target distribution. While partition function estimation is a classical problem,…

A vast array of envy-free results have been found for the subdivision of one-dimensional resources, such as the interval $[0,1]$. The goal is to divide the space into $n$ pieces and distribute them among $n$ observers such that each…

We study the discrepancy between the distribution of a vector-valued functional of i.i.d. random elements and that of a Gaussian vector. Our main contribution is an explicit bound on the convex distance between the two distributions,…

This note establishes convergence in mean of order $p$, $0<p\le 1$ for $d$-dimensional arrays of random vectors in Hilbert spaces under the Ces\`{a}ro uniform integrability conditions. In the case where $0<p<1$, our $L_p$ convergence is…

We study the approximability of general convex sets in $\mathbb{R}^n$ by intersections of halfspaces, where the approximation quality is measured with respect to the standard Gaussian distribution $N(0,I_n)$ and the complexity of an…
