Maxiset in sup-norm for kernel estimators

英文摘要：

In the Gaussian white noise model, we study the estimation of an unknown multidimensional function $f$ in the uniform norm by using kernel methods. The performances of procedures are measured by using the maxiset point of view: we determine the set of functions which are well estimated (at a prescribed rate) by each procedure. So, in this paper, we determine the maxisets associated to kernel estimators and to the Lepski procedure for the rate of convergence of the form $(\log n/n)^{\be/(2\be+d)}$. We characterize the maxisets in terms of Besov and Hölder spaces of regularity $β$.
