Poisson processes and a log-concave Bernstein theorem
We discuss interplays between log-concave functions and log-concave sequences. We prove a Bernstein-type theorem, which characterizes the Laplace transform of logconcave measures on the half-line in terms of log-concavity of the alternating Taylor coefficients. We establish concavity inequalities for sequences inspired by the PrékopaLeindler and the Walkup theorems. One of our main tools is a s...
متن کاملA Deterministic Displacement Theorem for Poisson Processes
We announce a deterministic analog of Bartlett’s displacement theorem. The result is that a Poisson property is stable with respect to deterministic Hamiltonian displacements. While the random point configurations move according to an n-body evolution, the mean measure P satisfies a nonlinear Vlasov type equation Ṗ + y · ∇xP − ∇y · E(P ) = 0. Combined with Bartlett’s theorem, the result general...
متن کاملThe Bernstein-von Mises Theorem for Stationary Processes
In the literature of time series analysis since Whittle (1953), many authors (for example, Dunsmuir and Hannan (1976), Dunsmuir (1979), and Hosoya and Taniguchi (1982)) have considered an approach using Whittle’s log-likelihood, which is an approximation of Gaussian log-likelihood of the data, and have developed the asymptotic properties of an estimator that maximizes Whittle’s loglikelihood. T...
متن کاملRegularity for a Log-concave to Log-concave Mass Transfer Problem with near Euclidean Cost
If the cost function is not too far from the Euclidean cost, then the optimal map transporting Gaussians restricted to a ball will be regular. Similarly, given any cost function which is smooth in a neighborhood of two points on a manifold, there are small neighborhoods near each such that a Gaussian restricted to one is transported smoothly to a Gaussian on the other.
متن کاملDivergence for s-concave and log concave functions
We prove new entropy inequalities for log concave and s-concave functions that strengthen and generalize recently established reverse log Sobolev and Poincaré inequalities for such functions. This leads naturally to the concept of f -divergence and, in particular, relative entropy for s-concave and log concave functions. We establish their basic properties, among them the affine invariant valua...
