Title: On the diamenter of Lascar strong types (after Ludomir Newelski)

\\
This is an exposition a theorem of mathematical logic which only assumes
the
notions of structure, elementary equivalence, and compactness (saturation).
Newelski proved that type-definable Lascar strong types have finite
diameter.
Our exposition is based on a proof that appears in Pelaez' thesis - up to a
minor difference: the notion of weak c-free is replaced with the notion of
non-drifting that is introduced here.

Title: Chang's Conjecture and semiproperness of nonreasonable posets
Authors: Sean D. Cox
Categories: math.LO
\\
Let $\mathbb{Q}$ denote the poset which adds a Cohen real then shoots a
club
through the complement of $\big( [\omega_2]^\omega \big)^V$ with countable
conditions. We prove that the version of Strong Chang's Conjecture from
\cite{MR2965421} implies semiproperness of $\mathbb{Q}$, and that
semiproperness of $\mathbb{Q}$---in fact semiproperness of any poset which
is
sufficiently \emph{nonreasonable} in the sense of
Foreman-Magidor~\cite{MR1359154}---implies the version of Strong Chang's
Conjecture from \cite{MR2723878} and \cite{MR1261218}. In particular,
semiproperness of $\mathbb{Q}$ has large cardinal strength, which answers a
question of Friedman-Krueger~\cite{MR2276627}. One corollary of our work is
that the version of Strong Chang's Conjecture from \cite{MR2965421} does not
imply the existence of a precipitous ideal on $\omega_1$.

Title: Automorphism groups of randomized structures
Authors: Tom\'as Ibarluc\'ia
Categories: math.LO math.DS
\\
We study automorphism groups of randomizations of separable structures,
with
focus on the $\aleph_0$-categorical case. We give a description of the
automorphism group of the Borel randomization in terms of the group of the
original structure. In the $\aleph_0$-categorical context, this provides a
new
source of Roelcke precompact Polish groups, and we describe the associated
Roelcke compactifications. This allows us also to recover and generalize
preservation results of stable and NIP formulas previously established in
the
literature, via a Banach-theoretic translation. Finally, we study the
separable
models of the theory of beautiful pairs of randomizations, and we show that
this theory is in general not $\aleph_0$-categorical.

When $p$ is a computable real so that $p \geq 1$, the isometry degree of a
computable copy $\mathcal{B}$ of $\ell^p$ is defined to be the least
powerful
Turing degree that computes a linear isometry of $\ell^p$ onto

are precisely the c.e. degrees.

Title: On densities of lattice arrangements intersecting every i-dimensional
affine subspace
Authors: Bernardo Gonz\'alez Merino, Matthias Henze
Categories: math.MG math.CO
\\
In 1978, Makai Jr. established a remarkable connection between the
volume-product of a convex body, its maximal lattice packing density and the
minimal density of a lattice arrangement of its polar body intersecting
every
affine hyperplane. Consequently, he formulated a conjecture that can be
seen as
a dual analog of Minkowski's fundamental theorem, and which is strongly
to the well-known Mahler-conjecture.
Based on the covering minima of Kannan & Lov\'asz and a problem posed by
Fejes T\'oth, we arrange Makai Jr.'s conjecture into a wider context and
investigate densities of lattice arrangements of convex bodies intersecting
every i-dimensional affine subspace. Then it becomes natural also to
formulate
and study a dual analog to Minkowski's second fundamental theorem. As our
main
results, we derive meaningful asymptotic lower bounds for the densities of
such
arrangements, and furthermore, we solve the problems exactly for the
special,
yet important, class of unconditional convex bodies.

Title: Embedded Eigenvalues and Neumann-Wigner Potentials for Relativistic
Schrodinger Operators
Authors: Jozsef Lorinczi, Itaru Sasaki
Categories: math-ph math.MP
MSC-class: 62M15
\\
We construct Neumann-Wigner type potentials for the massive relativistic
Schrodinger operator in one and three dimensions for which an eigenvalue
embedded in the absolutely continuous spectrum exists. First we consider the
relativistic variants of the original example by von Neumann and Wigner,
and as
a second example we discuss the potential due to Moses and Tuan. We show
that
in the non-relativistic limit these potentials converge to the classical
Neumann-Wigner potentials. For the massless operator in one dimension we
construct two families of potentials, different by the parities of the
(generalized) eigenfunctions, for which an eigenvalue equal to zero or a
0-resonance exists, dependent on the rate of decay of the corresponding
eigenfunctions.

Title: Einstein-Hilbert action with cosmological term from Chern-Simons
gravity
Categories: math-ph math.MP
DOI: 10.1016/j.geomphys.2014.08.013
\\
We propose a modification to the Lie algebra $S$-expansion method. The
modification is carried out by imposing a condition on the $S$-expansion
procedure, when the semigroup is given by a cyclic group of even order. The
$S$-expanded algebras are called $S_{H}$-expanded algebras where $S=Z_{2n}$.
The invariant tensors for $S_{H}$-expanded algebras are calculated and the
dual
formulation of $S_{H}$-expansion procedure is proposed. We consider the
$S_{H}$-expansion of the five-dimensional $AdS$ algebra and its
corresponding
invariants tensors are found. Then a Chern-Simons Lagrangian invariant under
the five-dimensional $AdS$ algebra $S_{H}$-expanded is constructed and its
relationship to the general relativity is studied.

Title: Nonlinear heat conduction equations with memory: physical meaning and
analytical results
Authors: Pietro Artale Harris and Roberto Garra
Categories: math-ph math.MP
\\
We study nonlinear heat conduction equations with memory effects within
the
framework of the fractional calculus approach to the generalized
Maxwell-Cattaneo law. Our main aim is to derive the governing equations of
heat
propagation, considering both the empirical temperature-dependence of the
thermal conductivity coefficient (which introduces nonlinearity) and memory
effects, according to the general theory of Gurtin and Pipkin of finite
velocity thermal propagation with memory. In this framework, we consider in
detail two different approaches to the generalized Maxwell-Cattaneo law,
based
on the application of long-tail Mittag-Leffler memory function and power law
relaxation functions, leading to nonlinear time-fractional telegraph and
wave-type equations. We also discuss some explicit analytical results to the
model equations based on the generalized separating variable method and
discuss
their meaning in relation to some well-known results of the ordinary case.

Title: Real eigenvalues of non-symmetric random matrices: Transitions and
Universality
Authors: Luis Carlos Garc\'ia del Molino, Khashayar Pakdaman and Jonathan
Touboul
Categories: math-ph math.MP
\\
In the past 20 years, the study of real eigenvalues of non-symmetric real
random matrices has seen important progress. Notwithstanding, central
questions
still remain open, such as the characterization of their asymptotic
statistics
and the universality thereof. In this letter we show that for a wide class
of
matrices, the number $k_n$ of real eigenvalues of a matrix of size $n$ is
asymptotically Gaussian with mean $\bar k_n=\mathcal{O}(\sqrt{n})$ and
variance
$\bar k_n(2-\sqrt{2})$. Moreover, we show that the limit distribution of
real
eigenvalues undergoes a transition between bimodal for $k_n=o(\sqrt{n})$ to
unimodal for $k_n=\mathcal{O}(n)$, with a uniform distribution at the
transition. We predict theoretically these behaviours in the Ginibre
ensemble
using a log-gas approach, and show numerically that they hold for a wide
range
of random matrices with independent entries beyond the universality class of
the circular law.

Title: Accelerated High-Resolution Photoacoustic Tomography via Compressed
Sensing
Authors: Simon Arridge, Paul Beard, Marta Betcke, Ben Cox, Nam Huynh, Felix
Lucka, Olumide Ogunlade and Edward Zhang
Categories: math.NA
Comments: submitted to "Physics in Medicine and Biology"
\\
Current 3D photoacoustic tomography (PAT) systems offer either high image
quality or high frame rates but are not able to deliver high spatial and
temporal resolution simultaneously, which limits their ability to image
dynamic
processes in living tissue. A particular example is the planar Fabry-Perot
(FP)
scanner, which yields high-resolution images but takes several minutes to
sequentially map the photoacoustic field on the sensor plane,
point-by-point.
However, as the spatio-temporal complexity of many absorbing tissue
structures
is rather low, the data recorded in such a conventional, regularly sampled
fashion is often highly redundant. We demonstrate that combining variational
image reconstruction methods using spatial sparsity constraints with the
development of novel PAT acquisition systems capable of sub-sampling the
acoustic wave field can dramatically increase the acquisition speed while
maintaining a good spatial resolution: First, we describe and model two
general
spatial sub-sampling schemes. Then, we discuss how to implement them using
the
FP scanner and demonstrate the potential of these novel compressed sensing
PAT
devices through simulated data from a realistic numerical phantom and
through
measured data from a dynamic experimental phantom as well as from in-vivo
experiments. Our results show that images with good spatial resolution and
contrast can be obtained from highly sub-sampled PAT data if variational
image
reconstruction methods that describe the tissues structures with suitable
sparsity-constraints are used. In particular, we examine the use of total
variation regularization enhanced by Bregman iterations. These novel
reconstruction strategies offer new opportunities to dramatically increase
the
acquisition speed of PAT scanners that employ point-by-point sequential
scanning as well as reducing the channel count of parallelized schemes that
use
detector arrays.

Title: Robust Solvers for Maxwell's Equations with Dissipative Boundary
Conditions
Authors: James H. Adler and Xiaozhe Hu and Ludmil T. Zikatanov
Categories: math.NA
\\
In this paper, we design robust and efficient linear solvers for the
numerical approximation of solutions to Maxwell's equations with dissipative
boundary conditions. We consider a structure-preserving finite-element
approximation with standard Nedelec--Raviart--Thomas elements in space and a
Crank--Nicolson scheme in time to approximate the electric and magnetic
fields.
We focus on two types of block preconditioners. The first type is based on
the well-posedness results of the discrete problem. The second uses an exact
block factorization of the linear system, for which the structure-preserving
discretization yields sparse Schur complements. We prove robustness and
optimality of these block preconditioners, and provide supporting numerical
tests.

The error behavior of exponential operator splitting methods for nonlinear

Operator splitting methods combined with finite element spatial

splitting method and conforming polynomial finite element discretizations.
For
sufficiently regular solutions the classical orders of convergence are
retained, that is, second-order convergence in time and polynomial
convergence
in space is proven. The established convergence result is confirmed and

We give some experimental observations on the growth of the norm of

Title: Irreducible polynomials with prescribed sums of coefficients
Authors: Aleksandr Tuxanidy and Qiang Wang
Categories: math.NT
\\
Let $q$ be a power of a prime, let $\mathbb{F}_q$ be the finite field with
$q$ elements and let $n \geq 2$. For a polynomial $h(x) \in \mathbb{F}_q[x]$ of
degree $n \in \mathbb{N}$ and a subset $W \subseteq [0,n] := \{0, 1, \ldots, n\}$, we define the sum-of-digits function $$S_W(h) = \sum_{w \in W}[x^{w}] h(x)$$ to be the sum of all the coefficients of $x^w$ in $h(x)$ with $w \in W$.
In the case when $q = 2$, we prove, except for a few genuine exceptions,
that
for any $c \in \mathbb{F}_2$ and any $W \subseteq [0,n]$ there exists an
irreducible polynomial $P(x)$ of degree $n$ over $\mathbb{F}_2$ such that
$S_{W}(P) = c$. In particular, restricting ourselves to the case when $\# W = 1$, we obtain a new proof of the Hansen-Mullen irreducibility conjecture
(now a
theorem) in the case when $q = 2$. In the case of $q> 2$, we prove that, for
any $c \in \mathbb{F}_q$, any $n\geq 2$ and any $W \subseteq [0,n]$, there
exists an irreducible polynomial $P(x)$ of degree $n$ such that $S_{W}(P) \neq c$.

Title: Metrical star discrepancy bounds for lacunary subsequences of digital
Kronecker-sequences and polynomial tractability
Authors: Mario Neum\"uller and Friedrich Pillichshammer
Categories: math.NT
MSC-class: 11K38, 11K31, 11K45
\\
The star discrepancy $D_N^*(\mathcal{P})$ is a quantitative measure for
the
irregularity of distribution of a finite point set $\mathcal{P}$ in the
multi-dimensional unit cube which is intimately related to the integration
error of quasi-Monte Carlo algorithms. It is known that for every integer $N \ge 2$ there are point sets $\mathcal{P}$ in $[0,1)^d$ with
$|\mathcal{P}|=N$
and $D_N^*(\mathcal{P}) =O((\log N)^{d-1}/N)$. However, for small $N$
compared
to the dimension $d$ this asymptotically excellent bound is useless (e.g.
for
$N \le {\rm e}^{d-1}$).
In 2001 it has been shown by Heinrich, Novak, Wasilkowski and
Wo\'{z}niakowski that for every integer $N \ge 2$ there exist point sets
$\mathcal{P}$ in $[0,1)^d$ with $|\mathcal{P}|=N$ and $D_N^*(\mathcal{P}) \le C \sqrt{d/N}$. Although not optimal in an asymptotic sense in $N$, this upper
bound has a much better (and even optimal) dependence on the dimension $d$.
Unfortunately the result by Heinrich et al. and also later variants
thereof
by other authors are pure existence results and until now no explicit
construction of point sets with the above properties are known. Quite
recently
L\"obbe studied lacunary subsequences of Kronecker's $(n \boldsymbol{\alpha})$-sequence and showed a metrical discrepancy bound of
the
form $C \sqrt{d (\log d)/N}$ with implied absolute constant $C>0$
independent
of $N$ and $d$.
In this paper we show a corresponding result for digital Kronecker
sequences,
which are a non-archimedean analog of classical Kronecker sequences.

Title: Curtis homomorphisms and the integral Bernstein center for GL_n
Authors: David Helm
Categories: math.NT
MSC-class: 11F33, 11F70, 11F80
\\
We describe two conjectures, one strictly stronger than the other, that
give
descriptions of the integral Bernstein center for GL_n(F) (that is, the
center
of the category of smooth W(k)[GL_n(F)]-modules, for F a p-adic field and k
an
algebraically closed field of characteristic l different from p) in terms of
Galois theory. Moreover, we show that the weak version of the conjecture
(for m
at most n) implies the strong version of the conjecture. In a companion
paper
[HM] we show that the strong conjecture for n-1 implies the weak conjecture
for
n; thus the two papers together give an inductive proof of both conjectures.
The upshot is a description of the integral Bernstein center for GL_n in
purely
Galois- theoretic terms; previous work of the author shows that such a
description implies the conjectural "local Langlands correspondence in
families" of Emerton and the author.

Title: Lubin-Tate Deformation Spaces and $(\phi,\Gamma)$-Modules
Authors: Annie Carter
Categories: math.NT
\\
Jean-Marc Fontaine has shown that there exists an equivalence of
categories
between the category of continuous $\mathbb{Z}_p$-representations of a given
Galois group and the category of \'{e}tale $(\phi,\Gamma)$-modules over a
certain ring. This work attempts to answer the question of whether there
exists
a theory of $(\phi,\Gamma)$-modules for the Lubin-Tate tower. We construct
this
tower via the rings $R_n$ which parametrize deformations of level $n$ of a
given formal module. One can choose prime elements $\pi_n$ in each ring
$R_n$
in a compatible way, and consider the tower of fields $(K'_n)_n$ obtained by
localizing at $\pi_n$, completing, and passing to fraction fields. By taking
the compositum $K_n = K_0 K'_n$ of each field with a certain unramified
extension $K_0$ of the base field $K'_0$ one obtains a tower of fields
$(K_n)_n$ which is strictly deeply ramified in the sense of Anthony Scholl.
This is a first step towards showing that there exists a theory of
$(\phi,\Gamma)$-modules for this tower.

Title: $*$-freeness in Finite Tensor Products
Authors: Benoit Collins, Pierre Yves Gaudreau Lamarre
Categories: math.OA math.GR
\\
In this paper, we consider the following question and variants thereof:
given
$\mathbf D:=\big(a_{1;i}\otimes\cdots\otimes a_{K;i}:i\in I\big)$, a
collection
of elementary tensor non-commutative random variables in the tensor product
of
probability spaces $(\mathcal A_1\otimes\cdots\otimes\mathcal A_K,\phi_1\otimes\cdots\otimes\phi_K)$, when is $\mathbf D$ $*$-free? (See
Section 1.2 for a precise formulation of this problem.)
Settling whether or not freeness occurs in tensor products is a recurring
problem in operator algebras, and the following two examples provide a
natural
motivation for the above question:
(A) If $(a_{1;i}:i\in I)$ is a $*$-free family of Haar unitary variables
and
$a_{k,i}$ are arbitrary unitary variables for $k\geq2$, then the
$*$-freeness
persists at the level of the tensor product $\mathbf D$.
(B) A converse of (A) holds true if all variables $a_{k;i}$ are group-like
elements (see Corollary 1.7 of Proposition 1.6).
It is therefore natural to seek to understand the extent to which such
simple
characterizations hold true in more general cases. While our results fall
short
of a complete characterization, we make notable steps toward identifying
necessary and sufficient conditions for the freeness of $\mathbf D$. For
example, we show that under evident assumptions, if more than one family
$(a_{k,i}:i\in I)$ contains non-unitary variables, then the tensor family
fails
to be $*$-free (see Theorem 1.8 (1)).

Categories: math.OA quant-ph
MSC-class: 46L50, 46L51, 46L55, 54H20
\\
We introduce a notion of universal preparability for a state of a system,
more precisely: for a normal state on a von Neumann algebra. It describes a
situation where from an arbitrary initial state it is possible to prepare a
target state with arbitrary precision by a repeated interaction with a
sequence
of copies of another system. For $\mathcal{B}(\mathcal{H})$ we give criteria
sufficient to ensure that all normal states are universally preparable which
can be verified for a class of non-commutative birth and death processes
realized, in particular, by the interaction of a micromaser with a stream of
atoms. As a tool the theory of tight sequences of states and of stationary
states is further developed and we show that in the presence of stationary
faithful normal states universal preparability of all normal states is
equivalent to asymptotic completeness, a notion studied earlier in
connection
with the scattering theory of non-commutative Markov processes.

Title: Improved Sparse Low-Rank Matrix Estimation
Authors: Ankit Parekh and Ivan W. Selesnick
Categories: math.OC
\\
This paper addresses the problem of estimating a sparse low-rank matrix
from
its noisy observation. We propose a convex objective function consisting of
a
data-fidelity term and two parameterized non-convex penalty functions. The
non-convex penalty functions induce sparsity of the singular values and the
entries of the matrix to be estimated. We show how to set the parameters of
the
non-convex penalty functions, in order to ensure that the objective
function is
strictly convex. The proposed objective function better estimates sparse
low-rank matrices than the convex method which utilizes the sum of the
nuclear
norm and the $\ell_1$ norm. We derive an algorithm (as an instance of ADMM)
to
solve the proposed problem, and guarantee its convergence provided the
scalar
augmented Lagrangian parameter is set appropriately.

Title: The Homotopy Method Revisited: Computing Solution Paths of

MSC-class: 90C25 (Primary) 49N45, 62J07 (Secondary)
\\
$\ell_1$-regularized linear inverse problems are frequently used in
signal
processing, image analysis, and statistics. The correct choice of the
regularization parameter $t \in \mathbb{R}_{\geq 0}$ is a delicate issue.
Instead of solving the variational problem for a fixed parameter, the idea
of
the homotopy method is to compute a complete solution path $u(t)$ as a
function of $t$. In a celebrated paper by Osborne, Presnell, and Turlach,
it
has been shown that the computational cost of this approach is often
comparable
to the cost of solving the corresponding least squares problem. Their
analysis
relies on the one-at-a-time condition, which requires that different indices
enter or leave the support of the solution at distinct regularization
parameters. In this paper, we introduce a generalized homotopy algorithm
based
on a nonnegative least squares problem, which does not require such a
condition, and prove its termination after finitely many steps. At every
point
of the path, we give a full characterization of all possible directions. To
illustrate our results, we discuss examples in which the standard homotopy
method either fails or becomes infeasible. To the best of our knowledge, our
algorithm is the first to provably compute a full solution path for an
arbitrary combination of an input matrix and a data vector.

This paper considers the distributed optimization of a sum of locally
observable, non-convex functions. The optimization is performed over a
multi-agent networked system, and each local function depends only on a
subset
of the variables. An asynchronous and distributed alternating directions
method
of multipliers (ADMM) method that allows the nodes to defer or skip the
computation and transmission of updates is proposed in the paper. The
proposed
algorithm utilizes different approximations in the update step, resulting in
proximal and majorized ADMM variants. Both variants are shown to converge
to a
local minimum, under certain regularity conditions. The proposed
asynchronous
algorithms are also applied to the problem of cooperative localization in
wireless ad hoc networks, where it is shown to outperform the other

Title: Necessary Optimality Conditions for Optimal Control Problems with
Equilibrium Constraints
Authors: Lei Guo and Jane Ye
Categories: math.OC
\\
This paper introduces and studies the optimal control problem with
equilibrium constraints (OCPEC). The OCPEC is an optimal control problem
with a
mixed state and control equilibrium constraint formulated as a
complementarity
constraint and it can be seen as a dynamic mathematical program with
equilibrium constraints. It provides a powerful modeling paradigm for many
practical problems such as bilevel optimal control problems and dynamic
principal-agent problems. In this paper, we propose weak, Clarke,
Mordukhovich
and strong stationarities for the OCPEC. Moreover, we give some sufficient
conditions to ensure that the local minimizers of the OCPEC are Fritz John
type
weakly stationary, Mordukhovich stationary and strongly stationary,
respectively. Unlike Pontryagain's maximum principle for the classical
optimal
control problem with equality and inequality constraints, a counter example
shows that for general OCPECs, there may exist two sets of multipliers for
the
complementarity constraints. A condition under which these two sets of
multipliers coincide is given.

In this paper, we further study the forward-backward envelope first
introduced in [27] and [29] for problems whose objective is the sum of a
proper
closed convex function and a smooth possibly nonconvex function with
Lipschitz
continuous gradient. We derive sufficient conditions on the original problem
for the corresponding forward-backward envelope to be a level-bounded and
Kurdyka-{\L}ojasiewicz function with an exponent of $\frac12$; these results
are important for the efficient minimization of the forward-backward
envelope
by classical optimization algorithms. In addition, we demonstrate how to
minimize some difference-of-convex regularized least squares problems by
minimizing a suitably constructed forward-backward envelope. Our preliminary
numerical results on randomly generated instances of large-scale
$\ell_{1-2}$
regularized least squares problems [36] illustrate that an implementation of
this approach with a limited-memory BFGS scheme outperforms some standard
first-order methods such as the nonmonotone proximal gradient method in
[34].

We consider a class of Nash games, termed as aggregative games, being

function of the aggregate of all the players' decisions. Every player
maintains
an estimate of this aggregate, and the players exchange this information
with
their local neighbors over a connected network. We study distributed
synchronous and asynchronous algorithms for information exchange and
equilibrium computation over such a network. Under standard conditions, we
establish the almost-sure convergence of the obtained sequences to the
equilibrium point. We also consider extensions of our schemes to aggregative
games where the players' objectives are coupled through a more general form
of
aggregate function. Finally, we present numerical results that demonstrate
the

Nesterov's accelerated gradient method for minimizing a smooth strongly

$\eps\in(0,1)$ after $k\ge O(\sqrt{L/\ell}\log(1/\eps))$ iterations, where
$\ell,L$ are the two parameters of smooth strong convexity. Furthermore, it
is
known that this is the best possible complexity in the function-gradient
oracle
model of computation. The method of linear conjugate gradients (CG) also
satisfies the same complexity bound in the special case of strongly convex
quadratic functions, but in this special case it is faster than the

Despite similarities in the algorithms and their asymptotic convergence
rates, the conventional analyses of the two methods are nearly disjoint. The
purpose of this note is provide a single quantity that decreases on every
step
at the correct rate for both algorithms. Our unified bound is based on a
potential similar to the potential in Nesterov's original analysis.
As a side benefit of this analysis, we provide a direct proof that
conjugate
gradient converges in $O(\sqrt{L/\ell}\log(1/\eps))$ iterations. In
contrast,
the traditional indirect proof first establishes this result for the

Title: A Limited-Feedback Approximation Scheme for Optimal Switching
Problems
with Execution Delays
Authors: Magnus Perninge
Categories: math.OC
MSC-class: 60G40, 93E20, 49L20, 62P20
\\
We consider a type of optimal switching problems with non-uniform
execution
delays and ramping. Such problems frequently occur in the operation of
economical and engineering systems. We first provide a solution to the
problem
by applying a probabilistic method. The main contribution is, however, a
scheme
for approximating the optimal control by limiting the information in the
state-feedback. In a numerical example the approximation routine shows a
considerable computational performance enhancement when compared to a
conventional algorithm.

Title: Random Access Design for Wireless Control Systems
Authors: Konstantinos Gatsis, Alejandro Ribeiro, George J. Pappas
Categories: math.OC
\\
Interferences arising between wireless sensor-actuator systems
communicating
over shared wireless channels adversely affect closed loop control
performance.
To mitigate this problem we design appropriate channel access policies for
wireless control systems subject to channel fading. The design is posed as
an
optimization problem where the total transmit power of the sensors is
minimized
while desired control performance is guaranteed for each involved control
loop.
Control performance is abstracted as a desired expected decrease rate of a
given Lyapunov function for each loop. We prove that the optimal channel
access
policies are decoupled and, intuitively, each sensor balances the gains from
transmitting to its actuator with the negative interference effect on all
other
control loops. Moreover the optimal policies are of a threshold nature, that
is, a sensor transmits only under favorable local fading conditions.
Finally,
we show that the optimal policies can be computed by a distributed iterative
procedure which does not require coordination between the sensors.

the number of times the walk has visited a specified site $Z$. This

Title: Intermittency for the Hyperbolic Anderson Model with rough noise in
space
Authors: Raluca M. Balan, Maria Jolis, Llu\'is Quer-Sardanyons
Categories: math.PR
\\
In this article, we consider the stochastic wave equation on the real line
driven by a linear multiplicative Gaussian noise, which is white in time and
whose spatial correlation corresponds to that of a fractional Brownian
motion
with Hurst index $H\in (\frac14,\frac12)$. Initial data are assumed to be
constant. First, we prove that this equation has a unique solution (in the
Skorohod sense) and obtain an exponential upper bound for the $p$-th moment
of
the solution, for any $p\geq 2$. Condition $H>\frac14$ turns out to be
necessary for the existence of solution. Secondly, we show that this
solution
coincides with the one obtained by the authors in a recent publication, in
which the solution is interpreted in the It\^o sense. Finally, we prove that
the solution of the equation in the Skorohod sense is weakly intermittent.

Title: Nonzero-sum stochastic differential games with impulse controls and
applications to retail energy markets
Authors: Ren\'e A\"id, Matteo Basei, Giorgia Callegaro, Luciano Campi,

Categories: math.PR q-fin.EC
\\
We study the notion of Nash equilibrium in a general nonzero-sum impulse
game
for two players. The main mathematical contribution of the paper is a
verification theorem which provides, under some regularity conditions, the
system of quasi-variational inequalities identifying the value functions and
the optimal strategies of the two players.
As an application, we propose a model for the competition among retailers
in
electricity markets. We first consider a simplified one-player setting,
where
we obtain a quasi-explicit expression for the value function and the optimal
control. Then, we turn to the two-player case and we provide a detailed
heuristic analysis of the retail impulse game, conducted along the lines of
the
verification theorem obtained in the general setting. This allows to
identify
reasonable candidates for the intervention and continuation regions of both
players and their strategies.

The purpose of this paper is to understand in more detail the shape of the
eigenvectors of the random Schroedinger operator H = Delta+V. Here Delta is
the
discrete Laplacian and V is a random potential. It is well known that under
certain assumptions on V the spectrum of this operator is pure point and its
eigenvectors are exponentially localized; a phenomenon known as Anderson
Localization. We restrict the operator to Z_n and consider the critical
model
H_n. We show that the shape of a uniformly chosen eigenvector of H_n
converges
in law to exp (-|t|/4 + Z_t/sqrt(2)), where Z is two-sided Brownian motion.

Title: Asymptotic bounds on renewal process stopping times

MSC-class: 60G50

Let $M(t)$ denote the expected number of terms in the first partial sum of
independent uniform $[0,1]$ random variables that exceeds $t$. Let $N(t)$
denote the expected number of terms in the first partial product of
independent
uniform $[1, e]$ random variables that exceeds $e^{t}$. It is known that
$M(t) = 2t+\frac{2}{3}+o(1)$, $M(t) = \sum_{k = 0}^{\left \lceil{t}\right \rceil} \frac{(-1)^{k} (t-k)^{k}}{k!}e^{t-k}$, and $N(1) = \frac{e-1}{e}+e^{\frac{1}{e-1}}$.
We show that $\lim_{t \rightarrow \infty} \frac{N(t)}{t} = e-1$ and $M(t) \geq N(t)$ for all $t \geq 0$. We also show that $N(t) = \frac{e-1}{e}+e^{t-1+\frac{t}{e-1}}$ for $t \in [0,1]$ and we prove that
$\frac{d}{dt}(N(t)e^{-\frac{e}{e-1}t}) = -\frac{e}{e-1}e^{-\frac{e}{e-1}t} N(t-1)-e^{-\frac{e}{e-1}t}$. In addition, we show that $N(t) = (e-1)(t+\frac{e-2}{2})+o(1)$, and we find asymptotic bounds on the stopping
times of a more general family of renewal processes.

Title: Monte Carlo with Determinantal Point Processes
Categories: math.PR math.CA stat.CO stat.ME
\\
We show that repulsive random variables can yield Monte Carlo methods with
faster convergence rates than the typical $N^{-1/2}$, where $N$ is the
number
of integrand evaluations. More precisely, we propose stochastic numerical
quadratures involving determinantal point processes associated with
multivariate orthogonal polynomials, and we obtain root mean square errors
that
decrease as $N^{-(1+1/d)/2}$, where $d$ is the dimension of the ambient
space.
First, we prove a central limit theorem (CLT) for the linear statistics of a
class of determinantal point processes, when the reference measure is a
product
measure supported on a hypercube, which satisfies the Nevai-class regularity
condition, a result which may be of independent interest. Next, we
introduce a
Monte Carlo method based on these determinantal point processes, and prove a
CLT with explicit limiting variance for the quadrature error, when the
reference measure satisfies a stronger regularity condition. As a
corollary, by
taking a specific reference measure and using a construction similar to
importance sampling, we obtain a general Monte Carlo method, which applies
to
any measure with continuously derivable density. Loosely speaking, our
method
can be interpreted as a stochastic counterpart to Gaussian quadrature,
which,
at the price of some convergence rate, is easily generalizable to any
dimension
and has a more explicit error term.

Title: Martingales in self-similar growth-fragmentations and their
connections
with random planar maps
Authors: Jean Bertoin, Timothy Budd, Nicolas Curien, Igor Kortchemski
Categories: math.PR math-ph math.MP
\\
The purpose of the present work is twofold. First, we develop the theory
of
general self-similar growth-fragmentation processes by focusing on
martingales
which appear naturally in this setting. As an application, we establish
many-to-one formulas for growth-fragmentations and define the notion of
intrinsic area of a growth-fragmentation. Second, we identify a
distinguished
family of growth-fragmentations closely related to stable L\'evy processes,
which are then shown to arise as the scaling limit of the perimeter process
in
Markovian explorations of certain random planar maps with large degrees
(which
are, roughly speaking, the dual maps of the stable maps of Le Gall &
Miermont).
This generalizes a geometric connection between large Boltzmann
triangulations
and a certain growth-fragmentation process, which was established in

This note is an application of classification results for

Fomin--Kirillov algebras to complex reflection groups. First, we focus on
the
case of cyclic groups where the corresponding Nichols algebras are only
finite-dimensional up to order four, and we include results about the
existence
of Weyl groupoids and finite-dimensional Nichols subalgebras for this class.
Second, recent results by Heckenberger--Vendramin [ArXiv e-prints, 1412.0857
(December 2014)] on the classification of Nichols algebras of semisimple
group
type can be used to find that these algebras are infinite-dimensional for
many
non-exceptional complex reflection groups in the Shephard--Todd

We prove several results concerning quasi-bialgebra morphisms
$\mathcal{D}^\omega(G)\to\mathcal{D}^\eta(H)$ of twisted group doubles. We
take
a particular focus on the isomorphisms which are simultaneously isomorphisms
$\mathcal{D}(G)\to\mathcal{D}(H)$. All such isomorphisms are shown to be
morphisms of quasi-Hopf algebras, and a classification of all such
isomorphisms
is determined. Whenever $\omega\in Z^3(G/Z(G),U(1))$ this suffices to
completely describe $\operatorname{Aut}(\mathcal{D}^\omega(G))$, the group
of
quasi-Hopf algebra isomorphisms of $\mathcal{D}^\omega(G)$, and so
generalizes
existing descriptions for the case where $\omega$ is trivial.

Let k be an algebraically closed field of characteristic zero. In joint
work
with J. Cuadra [arxiv.org/abs/1409.1644, arxiv.org/abs/1509.01165], we
showed
that a semisimple Hopf action on a Weyl algebra over a polynomial algebra
k[z_1,...,z_s] factors through a group action, and this in fact holds for
any
finite dimensional Hopf action if s=0. We also generalized these results to
finite dimensional Hopf actions on algebras of differential operators. In
this
work we establish similar results for Hopf actions on other algebraic
quantizations of commutative domains. This includes universal enveloping
algebras of finite dimensional Lie algebras, spherical symplectic reflection
algebras, quantum Hamiltonian reductions of Weyl algebras (in particular,
quantized quiver varieties), finite W-algebras and their central reductions,
quantum polynomial algebras, twisted homogeneous coordinate rings of abelian
varieties, and Sklyanin algebras. The generalization in the last three cases
uses a result from algebraic number theory, due to A. Perucca.

Title: Empirical Likelihood Ratio Test with Distribution Function
Constraints
Authors: Yingxi Liu and Ahmed Tewfik

\\
In this work, we study non-parametric hypothesis testing problem with
distribution function constraints. The empirical likelihood ratio test has
been
widely used in testing problems with moment (in)equality constraints.
However,
some detection problems cannot be described using moment (in)equalities. We
propose a distribution function constraint along with an empirical
likelihood
ratio test. This detector is applicable to a wide variety of robust
parametric/non-parametric detection problems. Since the distribution
function
constraints provide a more exact description of the null hypothesis, the
test
outperforms the empirical likelihood ratio test with moment constraints as
well
as many popular goodness-of-fit tests, such as the robust Kolmogorov-Smirnov
test and the Cram\'er-von Mises test. Examples from communication systems
with
real-world noise samples are provided to show their performance.
Specifically,
the proposed test significantly outperforms the robust Kolmogorov-Smirnov
test
and the Cram\'er-von Mises test when the null hypothesis is nested in the
alternative hypothesis. The same example is repeated when we assume no noise
uncertainty. By doing so, we are able to claim that in our case, it is
necessary to include uncertainty in noise distribution. Additionally, the
asymptotic optimality of the proposed test is provided.

Title: The Shapes of Things to Come: Probability Density Quantiles
Authors: Robert G. Staudte
Categories: math.ST stat.TH
Comments: 23 pages, 10 figures, 4 tables
\\
For every discrete or continuous location-scale family having a
square-integrable density, there is a unique continuous probability
distribution on the unit interval that is determined by the density-quantile
composition introduced by Parzen in 1979. These probability density
quantiles
(pdQs) only differ in shape, and any two of them can be compared with the
Hellinger distance or Kullback-Leibler divergences. In particular the
Hellinger
distance or root-divergences of pdQs from the class of symmetric
distributions
on the unit interval are shown to be roughly proportional to the classical
third moment skewness coefficient of the pdQ. Further, a more precise
classification of shapes by tail behavior is defined in terms of limiting
pdQ
derivatives at 0 and 1. Convergent empirical estimates of these pdQ s are
provided. Finally, divergence from, and convergence to, uniformity is
investigated.

Designing experiments for generalized linear models is difficult because

Title: Rate-Optimal Perturbation Bounds for Singular Subspaces with
Applications to High-Dimensional Statistics
Authors: T. Tony Cai and Anru Zhang
Categories: math.ST math.PR stat.ME stat.TH
\\
Perturbation bounds for singular spaces, in particular Wedin's $\sin \Theta$
theorem, are a fundamental tool in many fields including high-dimensional
statistics, machine learning, and applied mathematics. In this paper, we
establish separate perturbation bounds, measured in both spectral and
Frobenius
$\sin \Theta$ distances, for the left and right singular subspaces. Lower
bounds, which show that the individual perturbation bounds are rate-optimal,
are also given.
The new perturbation bounds are applicable to a wide range of problems. In
this paper, we consider in detail applications to low-rank matrix denoising
and
singular space estimation, high-dimensional clustering, and canonical
correlation analysis (CCA). In particular, separate matching upper and lower
bounds are obtained for estimating the left and right singular spaces. To
the
best of our knowledge, this is the first result that gives different optimal
rates for the left and right singular spaces under the same perturbation. In
addition to these problems, applications to other high-dimensional problems
such as community detection in bipartite networks, multidimensional scaling,
and cross-covariance matrix estimation are also discussed.

Title: Real time change-point detection in a nonlinear quantile model
Authors: Gabriela Ciuperca
Categories: math.ST stat.ME stat.TH
\\
Most studies in real time change-point detection either focus on the
linear
model or use the CUSUM method under classical assumptions on model errors.
This
paper considers the sequential change-point detection in a nonlinear
quantile
model. A test statistic based on the CUSUM of the quantile process
is proposed and studied. Under null hypothesis that the model does not
change,
the asymptotic distribution of the test statistic is determined. Under
alternative hypothesis that at some unknown observation there is a change in
model, the proposed test statistic converges in probability to $\infty$.
These
results allow to build the critical regions on open-end and on closed-end
procedures. Simulation results, using Monte Carlo technique, investigate the
performance of the test statistic, specially for heavy-tailed error
distributions. We also compare it with the classical CUSUM test statistic.

Title: Persistent homology of time-dependent functional networks constructed
from coupled time series
Authors: Bernadette J. Stolz, Heather A. Harrington and Mason A. Porter
Categories: q-bio.QM math.AT
\\
We use topological data analysis to study "functional networks" that we
construct from time-series data from both experimental and synthetic
sources.
Specifically, we use persistent homology in combination with a weight rank
clique filtration to gain insights into these functional networks, and we
use
persistence landscapes to interpret our results. Our first example consists
of
biological data in the form of functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI)
data that was acquired from human subjects during a simple motor-learning
Our second example uses time-series output from networks of coupled Kuramoto
oscillators. With these examples, we demonstrate that (1) using persistent
homology to study functional networks provides fascinating insights into
their
properties and (2) the position of the features in a filtration can play a
more
vital role than persistence in the interpretation of topological features,
even
though the latter is used more commonly to distinguish between signal and
noise. We find that in particular, persistent homology can detect
differences
in synchronisation patterns in our data sets over time giving insight on
changes in community structure in the networks, and on increased
synchronisation between brain regions forming loops in the functional
network
during motor-learning. For the motor-learning data we also observe that
persistence landscapes reveal that the majority of changes in the loops of
the
network takes place on the second of three days of the learning process.

Title: Symbolic-Numeric Tools for Analytic Combinatorics in Several
Variables

DOI: 10.1145/2930889.2930913
\\
Analytic combinatorics studies the asymptotic behaviour of sequences
through
effective algorithms required for the study of analytic combinatorics in
several variables, together with their complexity analyses. Given a
multivariate rational function we show how to compute its smooth isolated
critical points, with respect to a polynomial map encoding asymptotic
behaviour, in complexity singly exponential in the degree of its
denominator.
We introduce a numerical Kronecker representation for solutions of
polynomial
systems with rational coefficients and show that it can be used to decide
several properties (0 coordinate, equal coordinates, sign conditions for
real
solutions, and vanishing of a polynomial) in good bit complexity. Among the
critical points, those that are minimal---a property governed by
inequalities
on the moduli of the coordinates---typically determine the dominant
asymptotics
of the diagonal coefficient sequence. When the Taylor expansion at the
origin
has all non-negative coefficients (known as the combinatorial case') and
under
regularity conditions, we utilize this Kronecker representation to determine
probabilistically the minimal critical points in complexity singly
exponential
in the degree of the denominator, with good control over the exponent in the
bit complexity estimate. Generically in the combinatorial case, this allows
one
to automatically and rigorously determine asymptotics for the diagonal
coefficient sequence. Examples obtained with a preliminary implementation
show
the wide applicability of this approach.

Title: Delocalized Epidemics on Graphs: A Maximum Entropy Approach
Authors: Faryad Darabi Sahneh, Aram Vajdi, Caterina Scoglio
Categories: physics.soc-ph cs.SI math.DS
Comments: 6 pages, 5 figures, American Control Conference-2016
\\
The susceptible--infected--susceptible (SIS) epidemic process on complex
networks can show metastability, resembling an endemic equilibrium. In a
general setting, the metastable state may involve a large portion of the
network, or it can be localized on small subgraphs of the contact network.
Localized infections are not interesting because a true outbreak concerns
network--wide invasion of the contact graph rather than localized infection
of
certain sites within the contact network. Existing approaches to
localization
phenomenon suffer from a major drawback: they fully rely on the
solution of mean--field approximate models in the neighborhood of their
phase
transition point, where their approximation accuracy is worst; as
statistical
physics tells us. We propose a dispersion entropy measure that quantifies
the
localization of infections in a generic contact graph. Formulating a maximum
entropy problem, we find an upper bound for the dispersion entropy of the
possible metastable state in the exact SIS process. As a result, we find
sufficient conditions such that any initial infection over the network
either
dies out or reaches a localized metastable state. Unlike existing studies
relying on the solution of mean--field approximate models, our
investigation of
epidemic localization is based on characteristics of exact SIS equations.

Comments: IEEE International Symposium on Information Theory (ISIT),

\\
Wiatowski and B\"olcskei, 2015, proved that deformation stability and
vertical translation invariance of deep convolutional neural network-based
feature extractors are guaranteed by the network structure per se rather
than
the specific convolution kernels and non-linearities. While the translation
invariance result applies to square-integrable functions, the deformation
stability bound holds for band-limited functions only. Many signals of
practical relevance (such as natural images) exhibit, however, sharp and
curved
discontinuities and are hence not band-limited. The main contribution of
this
paper is a deformation stability result that takes these structural
properties
into account. Specifically, we establish deformation stability bounds for
the
class of cartoon functions introduced by Donoho, 2001.

We introduce diagrammatic protocols and holographic software for quantum

protocols
and the usual algebraic protocols. In particular we describe the intuitive
diagrammatic protocol for teleportation. We introduce the string Fourier
transform $\mathfrak{F}_{s}$ in quantum information, which gives a
topological
quantum computer. We explain why the string Fourier transform maps the zero
particle state to the multiple-qudit resource state, which maximizes the
entanglement entropy. We give a protocol to construct this $n$-qudit
resource
state $|Max \rangle$, which uses minimal cost. We study Pauli $X,Y,Z$
matrices,
and their relation with diagrammatic protocols. This work provides bridges
between the new theory of planar para algebras and quantum information,
especially in questions involving communication in quantum networks.

This paper is aimed at a (mostly) pedagogical exposition of the

the motion equations of certain modifications of general relativity. Here we
derive in all detail the motion equations in the Brans-Dicke theory with the
cubic self-interaction. This is a modification of the Brans-dicke theory by
the
addition of a term in the Lagrangian which is non-linear in the derivatives
of
the scalar field: it contains second-order derivatives. This is the basis of
the so-called Brans-Dicke Galileon. We pay special attention to the
variational
principle and to the algebraic details of the derivation. It is shown how
higher order derivatives of the fields appearing in the intermediate
will find useful tips for the derivation of the field equations of
modifications of general relativity such as the scalar-tensor theories and
$f(R)$ theories, by means of the (stationary action) variational principle.
The
content of this paper is specially recommended to those graduate and

Attenuator

Categories: quant-ph cs.IT math-ph math.IT math.MP math.PR
\\
We prove that Gaussian thermal input states minimize the output von
Neumann
entropy of the one-mode Gaussian quantum-limited attenuator for fixed input
entropy. The Gaussian quantum-limited attenuator models the attenuation of
an
electromagnetic signal in the quantum regime. The Shannon entropy of an
attenuated real-valued classical signal is a simple function of the entropy
of
the original signal. A striking consequence of energy quantization is that
the
output von Neumann entropy of the quantum-limited attenuator is no more a
function of the input entropy alone. The proof starts from the majorization
result of De Palma et al., IEEE Trans. Inf. Theory 62, 2895 (2016), and is
based on a new isoperimetric inequality. Our result implies that geometric
input probability distributions minimize the output Shannon entropy of the
thinning for fixed input entropy. Moreover, our result opens the way to the
multimode generalization, that permits to determine both the triple
region of the Gaussian quantum-limited attenuator and the classical capacity

We study the fate of algebraic decay of correlations in a harmonically
trapped two-dimensional degenerate Bose gas. The analysis is inspired by
recent
experiments on ultracold atoms where power-law correlations have been
observed
despite the presence of the external potential. We generalize the spin wave
description of phase fluctuations to the trapped case and obtain an
analytical
expression for the one-body density matrix within this approximation. We
show
that algebraic decay of the central correlation function persists to
lengths of
correlation function decays algebraically with a strictly larger exponent
weakly changing with trap size and find indications that the recently
observed
enhanced scaling exponents receive significant contributions from the normal
component of the gas. We discuss radial and angular correlations and
propose a
local correlation approximation which captures the correlations very well.
Our
analysis goes beyond the usual local density approximation and the developed
summation techniques constitute a powerful tool to investigate correlations
in
inhomogeneous systems.

The implementation of efficient multigrid preconditioners for elliptic
partial differential equations (PDEs) is a challenge due to the complexity
of
the resulting algorithms and corresponding computer code. For sophisticated
finite element discretisations on unstructured grids an efficient
implementation can be very time consuming and requires the programmer to
have
in-depth knowledge of the mathematical theory, parallel computing and
optimisation techniques on manycore CPUs. In this paper we show how the
development of bespoke multigrid preconditioners can be simplified
significantly by using a framework which allows the expression of the each
component of the algorithm at the correct abstraction level. Our approach
(1)
allows the expression of the finite element problem in a language which is
close to the mathematical formulation of the problem, (2) guarantees the
automatic generation and efficient execution of parallel optimised low-level
computer code and (3) is flexible enough to support different abstraction
levels and give the programmer control over details of the preconditioner.
We
use the composable abstractions of the Firedrake/PyOP2 package to
demonstrate
the efficiency of this approach for the solution of strongly anisotropic
PDEs
in atmospheric modelling. The weak formulation of the PDE is expressed in
Unified Form Language (UFL) and the lower PyOP2 abstraction layer allows the
manual design of computational kernels for a bespoke geometric multigrid
preconditioner. We compare the performance of this preconditioner to a
single-level method and hypre's BoomerAMG algorithm. The Firedrake/PyOP2
code
is inherently parallel and we present a detailled performance analysis for a
single node (24 cores) on the ARCHER supercomputer. Our implementation
utilises
a significant fraction of the available memory bandwidth and shows very good
weak scaling on up to 6,144 compute cores.

A function $f: \mathbb{R}^d \rightarrow \mathbb{R}$ is a Sparse Additive
Model (SPAM), if it is of the form $f(\mathbf{x}) = \sum_{l \in \mathcal{S}}\phi_{l}(x_l)$ where $\mathcal{S} \subset [d]$, $|\mathcal{S}| \ll d$. Assuming $\phi$'s, $\mathcal{S}$ to be unknown, there exists extensive
work
for estimating $f$ from its samples. In this work, we consider a generalized
version of SPAMs, that also allows for the presence of a sparse number of
second order interaction terms. For some $\mathcal{S}_1 \subset [d], \mathcal{S}_2 \subset {[d] \choose 2}$, with $|\mathcal{S}_1| \ll d, |\mathcal{S}_2| \ll d^2$, the function $f$ is now assumed to be of the form:
$\sum_{p \in \mathcal{S}_1}\phi_{p} (x_p) + \sum_{(l,l^{\prime}) \in \mathcal{S}_2}\phi_{(l,l^{\prime})} (x_l,x_{l^{\prime}})$. Assuming we have
the
freedom to query $f$ anywhere in its domain, we derive efficient algorithms
that provably recover $\mathcal{S}_1,\mathcal{S}_2$ with finite sample
bounds.
Our analysis covers the noiseless setting where exact samples of $f$ are
obtained, and also extends to the noisy setting where the queries are
corrupted
with noise. For the noisy setting in particular, we consider two noise
models
namely: i.i.d Gaussian noise and arbitrary but bounded noise. Our main
methods
for identification of $\mathcal{S}_2$ essentially rely on estimation of
sparse
Hessian matrices, for which we provide two novel compressed sensing based
schemes. Once $\mathcal{S}_1, \mathcal{S}_2$ are known, we show how the
individual components $\phi_p$, $\phi_{(l,l^{\prime})}$ can be estimated via
additional queries of $f$, with uniform error bounds. Lastly, we provide
simulation results on synthetic data that validate our theoretical findings.

exists a strategic complementarity, one user tends to transmit while the
other
decides to do so in order to enhance the overall spectral efficiency, which
is
beyond the scope of the conventional single-agent AM scheduling method. We
propose a two-player game model parameterized by the signal-to-noise ratios
(SNRs) of two user-to-user channels and prove that it is a supermodular game
where there always exist the extremal pure strategy Nash equilibria (PSNEs),
the largest and smallest PSNEs. We show by simulation results that the
extremal
PSNEs incur a similar bit error rate (BER) as the conventional single-agent
AM
scheme, but significantly improve the spectral efficiency in the NC-TWRC
system. The study also reveals the Pareto order of the extremal PSNEs: The
largest and smallest PSNEs are Pareto worst and best PSNEs, respectively.
Finally, we derive the sufficient conditions for the extremal PSNEs to be
symmetric and monotonic in channel SNRs. We also discuss how to utilize the
symmetry and monotonicity to relieve the complexity in the PSNE learning
process.

Title: Fractional Brownian motion time-changed by gamma and inverse gamma
process
Authors: A. Kumar, A. Wy{\l}oma\'nska, R. Po{\l}ocza\'nski, S. Sundar
Categories: physics.data-an math.PR
\\
Many real time-series exhibit behavior adequate to long range dependent
data.
Additionally very often these time-series have constant time periods and
also
have characteristics similar to Gaussian processes although they are not
Gaussian. Therefore there is need to consider new classes of systems to
model
these kind of empirical behavior. Motivated by this fact in this paper we
analyze two processes which exhibit long range dependence property and have
additional interesting characteristics which may be observed in real
phenomena.
Both of them are constructed as the superposition of fractional Brownian
motion
(FBM) and other process. In the first case the internal process, which plays
role of the time, is the gamma process while in the second case the internal
process is its inverse. We present in detail their main properties paying
main
attention to the long range dependence property. Moreover, we show how to
simulate these processes and estimate their parameters. We propose to use a
novel method based on rescaled modified cumulative distribution function for
estimation of parameters of the second considered process. This method is
very
useful in description of rounded data, like waiting times of subordinated
processes delayed by inverse subordinators. By using the Monte Carlo method
we
show the effectiveness of proposed estimation procedures.

Title: Kernel Balancing: A flexible non-parametric weighting procedure for
estimating causal effects
Categories: stat.ME math.ST stat.AP stat.ML stat.TH
Comments: Work originally included in PhD Thesis, May 2014, MIT
\\
In the absence of unobserved confounders, matching and weighting methods
are
widely used to estimate causal quantities including the Average Treatment
Effect on the Treated (ATT). Unfortunately, these methods do not necessarily
achieve their goal of making the multivariate distribution of covariates for
the control group identical to that of the treated, leaving some
(potentially
multivariate) functions of the covariates with different means between the
two
groups. When these "imbalanced" functions influence the non-treatment
potential
outcome, the conditioning on observed covariates fails, and ATT estimates
may
be biased. Kernel balancing, introduced here, targets a weaker requirement
for
unbiased ATT estimation, specifically, that the expected non-treatment
potential outcome for the treatment and control groups are equal. The
conditional expectation of the non-treatment potential outcome is assumed to
fall in the space of functions associated with a choice of kernel, implying
a
set of basis functions in which this regression surface is linear. Weights
are
then chosen on the control units such that the treated and control group
have
equal means on these basis functions. As a result, the expectation of the
non-treatment potential outcome must also be equal for the treated and
control
groups after weighting, allowing unbiased ATT estimation by subsequent
difference in means or an outcome model using these weights. Moreover, the
weights produced are (1) precisely those that equalize a particular
kernel-based approximation of the multivariate distribution of covariates
for
the treated and control, and (2) equivalent to a form of stabilized inverse
propensity score weighting, though it does not require assuming any model of
the treatment assignment mechanism. An R package, KBAL, is provided to
implement this approach.

Title: On sampling theorem with sparse decimated samples
Authors: Nikolai Dokuchaev
Categories: cs.IT math.IT math.ST stat.TH
MSC-class: 42A38, 93E10, 562M15, 42B30
\\
The classical sampling Nyquist-Shannon-Kotelnikov theorem states that a
band-limited continuous time function is uniquely defined by infinite
two-sided
sampling series taken with a sufficient frequency. The paper shows that
these
band-limited functions allows an arbitrarily close uniform approximation by
functions that are uniquely defined by their extremely sparse subsamples
representing arbitrarily small fractions of one-sided equidistant sample
series
with fixed oversampling parameter. In particular, an arbitrarily small
adjustment of a band-limited underlying function makes redundant every (m-1)
members of any set of m samples for an arbitrarily large m. This allows to
bypass, in a certain sense, the restriction on the sampling rate defined by
the
critical Nyquist rate.

Title: MCMC Confidence Sets for Identified Sets
Authors: Xiaohong Chen, Timothy Christensen and Elie Tamer
Categories: stat.ME math.ST stat.TH
\\
In complicated/nonlinear parametric models, it is hard to determine
whether a
parameter of interest is formally point identified. We provide
computationally
attractive procedures to construct confidence sets (CSs) for identified
sets of
parameters in econometric models defined through a likelihood or a vector of
moments. The CSs for the identified set or for a function of the identified
set
(such as a subvector) are based on inverting an optimal sample criterion
(such
as likelihood or continuously updated GMM), where the cutoff values are
computed directly from Markov Chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) simulations of a
quasi
posterior distribution of the criterion. We establish new Bernstein-von
Mises
type theorems for the posterior distributions of the quasi-likelihood ratio
(QLR) and profile QLR statistics in partially identified models, allowing
for
singularities. These results imply that the MCMC criterion-based CSs have
correct frequentist coverage for the identified set as the sample size
increases, and that they coincide with Bayesian credible sets based on
inverting a LR statistic for point-identified likelihood models. We also
show
that our MCMC optimal criterion-based CSs are uniformly valid over a class
of
data generating processes that include both partially- and point- identified
models. We demonstrate good finite sample coverage properties of our
proposed
methods in four non-trivial simulation experiments: missing data, entry game
with correlated payoff shocks, Euler equation and finite mixture models.
