The calculation of the distribution function of a strictly stable law at large X

Abstract

The paper considers the problem of calculating the distribution function of a strictly stable law at $x\to\infty$. To solve this problem, an expansion of the distribution function in a power series was obtained, and an estimate of the remainder term was also obtained. It was shown that in the case $α<1$ this series was convergent for any $x$, in the case $α=1$ the series was convergent at $N\to\infty$ in the domain $|x|>1$, and in the case $α>1$ the series was asymptotic at $x\to\infty$. The case $α=1$ was considered separately and it was demonstrated that in that case the series converges to the generalized Cauchy distribution. An estimate for the threshold coordinate $x_\varepsilon^N$ was obtained which determined the area of applicability of the obtained expansion. It was shown that in the domain $|x|\geqslant x_\varepsilon^N$ this power series could be used to calculate the distribution function, which completely solved the problem of calculating the distribution function at large $x$.

Functional independent component analysis by choice of norm: a framework for near-perfect classification

We develop a theory for functional independent component analysis in an infinite-dimensional framework using Sobolev spaces that accommodate smoother functions. The notion of penalized kurtosis is introduced motivated by Silverman's method for smoothing principal components. This approach allows for a classical definition of independent components obtained via projection onto the eigenfunctions of a smoothed kurtosis operator mapping a whitened functional random variable. We discuss the theoretical properties of this operator in relation to a generalized Fisher discriminant function and the relationship it entails with the Feldman-Hájek dichotomy for Gaussian measures, both of which are critical to the principles of functional classification. The proposed estimators are a particularly competitive alternative in binary classification of functional data and can eventually achieve the so-called near-perfect classification, which is a genuine phenomenon of high-dimensional data. Our methods are illustrated through simulations, various real datasets, and used to model electroencephalographic biomarkers for the diagnosis of depressive disorder.

Trace-Class Results for MCMC Algorithms for Student-$t$ Regression Models

In this paper, we consider MCMC algorithms for Student-$t$ regression models. In three cases, we investigate the efficiency of Markov chains based on the algorithms in terms of whether trace-class results hold or not. First, we consider the case where the parameters follow a matrix-normal-inverse-Wishart distribution and show that the Markov operator associated with a standard data augmentation algorithm is trace-class. Second, we consider the case of an improper prior and univariate outcomes. In this case, the standard Markov operator is not trace-class but the Markov operator associated with a collapsed Gibbs algorithm is trace-class. Third, we consider the case of an improper prior and multivariate outcomes. We obtain a trace-class result for a parameter expanded data augmentation algorithm which is based on a univariate working parameter. Finally, we consider the problem of numerially estimating a convergence rate of the trace-class Markov operator in the second case.

The Manifold Hypothesis under Unknown Gaussian Noise:Conditional Certificates and Consistent Dimension Estimation

We study what noisy data can establish about the Manifold Hypothesis under explicit identification and regularity conditions. A population residual certificate combines independent-view localization, Gaussian concentration, membership uncertainty, and population transfer. Existing rectifiability criteria then yield a covered-scale consequence. For a local smooth manifold with positive Hölder density, the actual-ball covariance limit identifies the spectral crossing with geometric dimension. We prove almost-sure eventual recovery under repeated observations. Reusing accurate localization averages improves the sufficient point-sample condition from $Nr^{d+4}\gg\log N$ to $Nr^d\gg\log N$, with replication $kr^2\gg\log N$. A two-mass certificate controls incorrect geometric-dimension emissions under declared class bounds. For single observations with unknown Gaussian noise, affine-support or known coordinate-bound restrictions provide noise intervals and consistent Gaussian correlation-dimension estimators. Ahlfors regularity identifies this exponent with Hausdorff dimension and with the geometric dimension of a homogeneous smooth class. Exact Cantor calculations delineate the limits of integer spectral counts and adjacent-radius slopes. We credit established local PCA, rectifiability, concentration, binomial inference, and deconvolution results before specifying our constructions. Reproducible experiments distinguish point estimation, finite-scale coverage, and certificate emission.
