Asymptotically minimax empirical Bayes estimation of a sparse normal mean vector
For the important classical problem of inference on a sparse high-dimensional normal mean vector, we propose a novel empirical Bayes model that admits a posterior distribution with desirable properties under mild conditions.

On geodesic flows with symmetries and closed magnetic geodesics on orbifolds [PDF]
Let $Q$ be a closed manifold admitting a locally-free action of a compact Lie group $G$. In this paper we study the properties of geodesic flows on $Q$ given by Riemannian metrics which are invariant by such an action.

A note on the Dancer–Fučík spectra of the fractional p-Laplacian and Laplacian operators
We study the Dancer–Fučík spectrum of the fractional p-Laplacian operator. We construct an unbounded sequence of decreasing curves in the spectrum using a suitable minimax scheme. For p = 2, we present a very accurate local analysis.

Convex Banding of the Covariance Matrix [PDF]
We introduce a new sparse estimator of the covariance matrix for high-dimensional models in which the variables have a known ordering. Our estimator, which is the solution to a convex optimization problem, is equivalently expressed as an estimator which ...

On the Group Rings of Abelian Minimax Groups
An Abelian group \(G\) is called minimax if it contains a finitely generated subgroup \(H\) such that \(G/H\) satisfies the minimal condition for subgroups. The set of primes \(p\) such that \(G\) has an element of order \(p\) is denoted by \(\pi(G)\), and we write \(\text{spect}(G)=\pi(G/H)\), where \(H\) is a finitely generated subgroup of \(G\) with

On invariant ideals in crossed products of torsion-free minimax nilpotent groups

Sion's mini-max theorem and Nash equilibrium in a multi-players game with two groups which is zero-sum and symmetric in each group [PDF]
We consider the relation between Sion's minimax theorem for a continuous function and a Nash equilibrium in a multi-players game with two groups which is zero-sum and symmetric in each group. We will show the following results. 1. The existence of Nash

A unified minimax result for restricted parameter spaces
We provide a development that unifies, simplifies and extends considerably a number of minimax results in the restricted parameter space literature. Various applications follow, such as that of estimating location or scale parameters under a lower (or ...

Dynamic Linear Discriminant Analysis in High Dimensional Space [PDF]
High-dimensional data that evolve dynamically feature predominantly in the modern data era. As a partial response to this, recent years have seen increasing emphasis to address the dimensionality challenge.
