Dimensionality Reduction for Persistent Homology with Gaussian Kernels
Computing persistent homology using Gaussian kernels is useful in the domains of topological data analysis and machine learning. We consider a power distance version of the Gaussian kernel distance (GKPD) given by Phillips, Wang and …

Chevet's type inequality for subexponential Weibull processes and norms of random matrices with iid entries
We will present a Chevet-type inequality for subexpontial Weibull processes and show how it may be applied to find two-sided bounds for operator \ell_p to \ell_q norms of random rectangular matrices with iid Weibull entries. …

Discrete logarithmic Sobolev inequalities in Banach spaces
We shall discuss certain aspects of vector-valued harmonic analysis on the discrete hypercube. After presenting the geometric motivation behind such investigations, we will survey known results on the Poincaré inequality and Talagrand’s influence inequality. Then …

On Orlicz spaces satisfying the Hoffmann-Jørgensen inequality
We say that an Orlicz function \Psi satisfies the H-J inequality, if \| \sum_{k=1}^n X_k \|_{\Psi} \le C_{\Psi} ( \| \sum_{k=1}^n X_k \|_{L_1} + \| \max_{k \le n}\|X_k\| \|_{\Psi}) for any collection \{X_k\}_{k \le n} …

Maximal sections of l_p^n balls for large values of p.
Let B_p^n be the unit ball in the standard p-th norm in R^n. Suppose we intersect this ball with a codimension one hyperplane H and ask the following question: for which H is the volume …

The s-numbers of Schatten class embeddings
Roughly speaking, the s-numbers of a linear operator between two Banach spaces are certain quantities which indicate how compact this operator is. One can introduce various sequences of s-numbers (classical examples include the approximation and …

Smoothed Analysis of the Komlos Conjecture
Last year, a new result appeared towards the solution of the well-known Komlos conjecture. The conjecture says that given n vectors in R^d with Euclidean norm at most one, there is always a coloring ± …

Inequalities for multilinear maximal operators (Oszacowania dla wieloliniowych operatorów maksymalnych)
Teoria operatorów wieloliniowych jest prężnie rozwijającym się działem analizy harmonicznej. W szczególności, oszacowania z wagą dla wieloliniowych funkcji maksymalnych, kwadratowych oraz operatorów singularnych były intensywnie badane w ciągu ostatnich dziesięciu lat. Celem odczytu będzie zaprezentowanie …

On bivariate distributions of the local time of It\^o-McKean diffusions
Denote as $L$ the local time at $0$ of an It\^o-McKean diffusion $X$. We present a new explicit description of the distribution of $L_t$ in terms of convolution exponent and, using the excursion theory, we …

Coherent Distributions on the Square
Let C denote the family of coherent distributions on [0,1]^2, i.e. all those probability measures m for which there exists a random vector (X,Y)~m such that X=P(E|G), Y=P(E|H) a.s. for some event E and sigma …

Sharp Poincaré and trace inequalities via Optimal Transport
In this talk, we study some Optimal Transport problems and we also find their corresponding minimal flow formulations. Then, we show that some sharp Poincaré and trace inequalities in BV space on bounded sets can …

Spectral norm bounds for Rademacher matrices
We will discuss bounds for the mean spectral norm of unhomogenous Rademacher matrices. We will recall a general conjecture formulated together with Witold Światkowski and show that it is satisfied in few particular cases.

Large deviations for the interchange process on the interval and incompressible flows
In the talk I will explain how large deviations for the one-dimensional interchange process are related to incompressible Euler equations. I will sketch how to obtain matching large deviation lower and upper bounds for processes …

Isoperimetric inequalities for certain star-shaped bodies
I will present isoperimetric type inequalities for star-shaped sets that interpolate between intersection bodies and dual Lp centroid bodies, two classes of convex bodies studied in geometry. This provides a bridge between two well-known inequalities: …

Lp identities and inequalities related to certain Levy proceses
I will present recent results, concerned with generators and forms (acting on Lp) related to Levy processes. We establish the Hardy-Stein identity in Lp and related multivariate identities. If time permits, we will also present …
