Background – Hymenoptera envenomation with honey bee (Apis mellifera) and paper wasp (Polistes spp.) may cause life‐threatening anaphylaxis in dogs. In human patients, clinical history, intradermal testing (IDT) and measurement of allergen‐specific serological immunoglobulin (Ig)E (sIgE) are used to support a diagnosis of Hymenoptera venom ...

Strengthened inequalities for the mean width and the ℓ‐norm
Abstract Barthe proved that the regular simplex maximizes the mean width of convex bodies whose John ellipsoid (maximal volume ellipsoid contained in the body) is the Euclidean unit ball; or equivalently, the regular simplex maximizes the ℓ‐norm of convex bodies whose Löwner ellipsoid (minimal volume ellipsoid containing the body) is the Euclidean unit

From Hardy to Rellich inequalities on graphs
Abstract We show how to deduce Rellich inequalities from Hardy inequalities on infinite graphs. Specifically, the obtained Rellich inequality gives an upper bound on a function by the Laplacian of the function in terms of weighted norms. These weights involve the Hardy weight and a function which satisfies an eikonal inequality.

A note on stochastic dominance, uniform integrability and lattice properties
Abstract In this work, we discuss completeness for the lattice orders of first and second order stochastic dominance. The main results state that both first‐ and second‐order stochastic dominance induce Dedekind super complete lattices, that is, lattices in which every bounded nonempty subset has a countable subset with identical least upper bound and ...

A Stochastic Gronwall Lemma [PDF]
We prove a stochastic Gronwall lemma of the following type: if $Z$ is an adapted nonnegative continuous process which satisfies a linear integral inequality with an added continuous local martingale $M$ and a process $H$ on the right hand side, then for ...

Sectorial convergence of U-statistics [PDF]
In this note we show that almost sure convergence to zero of symmetrized U-statistics indexed by a linear sector in Z^d_+ is equivalent to convergence along the diagonal of Z^d_+, as it is considered in Lata\la and Zinn [Ann. Probab. 28 (2000) 1908-1924].

Partial stochastic dominance for the multivariate Gaussian distribution [PDF]
Gaussian comparison inequalities provide a way of bounding probabilities relating to multivariate Gaussian random vectors in terms of probabilities of random variables with simpler correlation structures.

Leibniz seminorms in probability spaces [PDF]

Bounds for distribution functions of sums of squares and radial errors
Bounds are found for the distribution function of the sum of squares X2 + Y2 where X and Y are arbitrary continuous random variables. The techniques employed, which utilize copulas and their properties, show that the bounds are pointwise best‐possible when X and Y are symmetric about 0 and yield expressions which can be evaluated explicitly when X and ...

Inequalities for Walsh like random variables
Let be a sequence of mean zero independent random variables. Let , and let [Yk] be the linear span of Yk. Assume δ ≤ |Xn| ≤ K for some δ > 0 and K > 0 and let for 1 < p < ∞. We show that for f ∈ [Ym] the following inequalities hold: and ‖f‖2 ≤ C(4,m)2‖f‖1 ≤ C(4,m)2‖f‖2. These generalize various well known inequalities on Walsh functions.
