英文摘要：

We provide necessary and sufficient conditions for hypercontractivity of the minima of nonnegative, i.i.d. random variables and of both the maxima of minima and the minima of maxima for such r.v.'s. It turns out that the idea of hypercontractivity for minima is closely related to small ball probabilities and Gaussian correlation inequalities.

Bound on the maximal function associated to the bounded law of the iterated logarithms via orthomartingale approximation

We give sufficient conditions for the bounded law of the iterated logarithms for strictly stationary random fields when the summation is done on rectangle. The study is done by the control of an appropriated maximal function. The case of orthomartingales is treated. Then results on projective conditions are derived.

Bound on the maximal function associated to the law of the iterated logarithms for Bernoulli random fields

We provide a sufficient condition for the bounded law of the iterated logarithms for strictly stationary random fields expressable as a functional of i.i.d. random fields when the summation is done on rectangles. The study is done via the control of the moments of an appropriated maximal function. Applications to functionals of linear random fields, functions of a Gaussian linear random field and Volterra process are given.

Maximal inequalities and a law of the iterated logarithm for negatively associated random fields

The exponential inequality of the maximum partial sums is a key to establish the law of the iterated logarithm of negatively associated random variables. In the one-indexed random sequence case, such inequalities for negatively associated random variables are established by Shao (2000) by using his comparison theorem between negatively associated and independent random variables. In the multi-indexed random field case, the comparison theorem fails. The purpose of this paper is to establish the Kolmogorov exponential inequality as well a moment inequality of the maximum partial sums of a negati…

On Non-Interactive Simulation of Binary Random Variables

We leverage proof techniques Fourier analysis and an existing result in coding theory to derive new bounds for the problem of non-interactive simulation of binary random variables. Previous bounds in the literature were derived by applying data processing inequalities concerning maximal correlation or hypercontractivity. We show that our bounds are sharp in some regimes. For a specific instance of problem parameters, our main result answers an open problem posed by E. Mossel in 2017. As by-products of our analyses, various new properties of the average distance and distance enumerator of binar…

Self-normalized processes: exponential inequalities, moment bounds and iterated logarithm laws

Self-normalized processes arise naturally in statistical applications. Being unit free, they are not affected by scale changes. Moreover, self-normalization often eliminates or weakens moment assumptions. In this paper we present several exponential and moment inequalities, particularly those related to laws of the iterated logarithm, for self-normalized random variables including martingales. Tail probability bounds are also derived. For random variables B_t>0 and A_t, let Y_t(λ)=\exp{λA_t-λ^2B_t^2/2}. We develop inequalities for the moments of A_t/B_{t} or sup_{t\geq 0}A_t/{B_t(\log \log B_{…

Maxima of asymptotically Gaussian random fields and moderate deviation approximations to boundary crossing probabilities of sums of random variables with multidimensional indices

Several classical results on boundary crossing probabilities of Brownian motion and random walks are extended to asymptotically Gaussian random fields, which include sums of i.i.d. random variables with multidimensional indices, multivariate empirical processes, and scan statistics in change-point and signal detection as special cases. Some key ingredients in these extensions are moderate deviation approximations to marginal tail probabilities and weak convergence of the conditional distributions of certain ``clumps'' around high-level crossings. We also discuss how these results are related t…
