We introduce a family of norms on the complex matrices. These norms arise from a probabilistic framework, and their construction and validation involve probability theory …
We establish a reversal of Lyapunov's inequality for monotone log-concave sequences, settling a conjecture of Havrilla–Tkocz and Melbourne–Tkocz. A strengthened version of the …

We establish a discrete analog of the Rényi entropy comparison due to Bobkov and Madiman. For log-concave variables on the integers, the min entropy is within log e of the …

The wild bootstrap is a nonparametric tool that can be used to estimate a sampling distribution in the presence of heteroscedastic errors. In particular, the wild bootstrap …
A theorem of Hunter ensures that the complete homogeneous symmetric polynomials of even degree are positive definite functions. A probabilistic interpretation of Hunter's theorem …
We prove an extension of Szarek's optimal Khinchin inequality (1976) for distributions close to the Rademacher one, when all the weights are uniformly bounded by a 1/2 fraction of their …

Measures of local and global spatial association are key tools for exploratory spatial data analysis. Many such measures exist including Moran's I, Geary's C, and the Getis–Ord G and …
We prove Khinchin-type inequalities with sharp constants for type L random variables and all even moments. Our main tool is Hadamard's factorisation theorem from complex analysis …
G Chasapis, S Singh, T Tkocz - arXiv preprint arXiv:2206.01026, 2022 - arxiv.org
We establish a sharp comparison inequality between the negative moments and the second moment of the magnitude of sums of independent random vectors uniform on three …
