The beam interruptions (interlocks) of particle accelerators, despite being necessary safety measures, lead to abrupt operational changes and a substantial loss of beam time. A novel time series classification approach is applied to decrease beam time loss ...
Let F-p be a prime field of order p > 2, and let A be a set in F-p with very small size in terms of p. In this note, we show that the number of distinct cubic distances determined by points in A x A satisfies vertical bar(A - A)(3) + (A - A)(3 vertical bar ...
We present novel Markov-type and Nikolskii-type inequalities for multivariate polynomials associated with arbitrary downward closed multi-index sets in any dimension. Moreover, we show how the constant of these inequalities changes, when the polynomial is ...
Motivated by the numerical treatment of parametric and stochastic PDEs, we analyze the least-squares method for polynomial approximation of multivariate functions based on random sampling according to a given probability measure. Recent work has shown that ...
The need to model rare events of univariate time series has led to many recent advances in theory and methods. In this paper, we review telegraphically the literature on extremes of dependent time series and list some remaining challenges. ...
Affine-invariant properties are an abstract class of properties that generalize some central algebraic ones, such as linearity and low-degree-ness, that have been studied extensively in the context of property testing. Affine invariant properties consider ...
The thesis is a contribution to extreme-value statistics, more precisely to the estimation of clustering characteristics of extreme values. One summary measure of the tendency to form groups is the inverse average cluster size. In extreme-value context, th ...
We consider the problem of uniform sampling of points on an algebraic variety. Specifically, we develop a randomized algorithm that, given a small set of multivariate polynomials over a sufficiently large finite field, produces a common zero of the polynom ...
