Real‐Time Conformal Maps and Parameterizations

Computer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.
Abstract We present a simple algorithm to conformally map between two simple and bounded planar domains based on the concept of harmonic measure, which is a conformal invariant. With suitable preprocessing, the algorithm is fast enough to compute all possible conformal maps (having three real degrees of freedom) between the two domains in real time in

Cryptocurrency Bubbles and Costly Mining

International Economic Review, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper develops a model of a cryptocurrency by incorporating mining into the otherwise standard search‐theoretic monetary framework. As usual, multiple equilibria exist. To obtain a sharp prediction on whether a cryptocurrency' s value will last in the future, I propose a notion of equilibrium refinement based on the feature that mining ...

Variance Matrix Priors for Dirichlet Process Mixture Models With Gaussian Kernels

International Statistical Review, EarlyView.
Summary Bayesian mixture modelling is widely used for density estimation and clustering. The Dirichlet process mixture model (DPMM) is the most popular Bayesian non‐parametric mixture modelling approach. In this manuscript, we study the choice of prior for the variance or precision matrix when Gaussian kernels are adopted.

Discrete infinity Laplace equations on graphs and tug-of-war games

Calculus of Variations and Partial Differential Equations
We study the Dirichlet problem of the following discrete infinity Laplace equation on a subgraph with finite width $$Δ_{\infty} u(x) = \inf_{y \sim x}u(y)+\sup_{y \sim x}u(y)-2u(x) = f(x).$$ We say that a subgraph has finite width if the distances from all vertices to the boundary are uniformly bounded.

Specification Tests for Jump‐Diffusion Models Based on the Characteristic Function

International Statistical Review, EarlyView.
Summary Goodness‐of‐fit tests are suggested for several popular jump‐diffusion processes. The suggested test statistics utilise the marginal characteristic function of the model and its L2‐type discrepancy from an empirical counterpart. Model parameters are estimated either by minimising the aforementioned L2‐type discrepancy or by maximum likelihood ...

Superposition Property in Disjoint Variables for the Infinity Laplace Equation

We establish a superposition principle in disjoint variables for the inhomogeneous infinity-Laplace equation. We show that the sum of viscosity solutions of the inhomogeneous infinity-Laplace equation in separate domains is a viscosity solution in the product domain.

A Non‐Parametric Framework for Correlation Functions on Product Metric Spaces

International Statistical Review, EarlyView.
Summary We propose a non‐parametric framework for analysing data defined over products of metric spaces, a versatile class encountered in various fields. This framework accommodates non‐stationarity and seasonality and is applicable to both local and global domains, such as the Earth's surface, as well as domains evolving over linear time or time ...

Bias Adjustment for Mean Squared Error Estimation in M‐Quantile Models for Small Area Estimation

International Statistical Review, EarlyView.
Summary M‐quantile (MQ) regression provides a robust and flexible alternative to mixed models for small area estimation. However, several theoretical aspects remain underexplored. In this paper, a parametric bootstrap method is proposed to approximate the distributions of area‐specific MQ coefficients and applied to adjust the bias in the mean squared ...

Erythrocyte ‘Feierzeit’ reaction: Novel filamentous and vesicular response to n‐butyl acetate

Journal of Microscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Human erythrocytes (red blood cells; RBCs) undergo spontaneous disassembly after several hours of exposure to n‐butyl acetate (nBA). Images of the morphological changes were captured in time‐lapse sequences using differential interference contrast (DIC) light microscopy.

Econometrics at the Extreme: From Quantile Regression to QFAVAR1

Journal of Economic Surveys, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper surveys quantile modelling from its theoretical origins to current advances. We organize the literature and present core econometric formulations and estimation methods for: (i) cross‐sectional quantile regression; (ii) quantile time series models and their time series properties; (iii) quantile vector autoregressions for ...
