We develop a class of integrals on a manifold M called exponential iterated integrals, an extension of K. T. Chen's iterated integrals. It is shown that the matrix entries of any upper triangular representation of the fundamental group of M can be expressed via these new integrals. The ring of exponential iterated inte…
We introduce a covariance matrix estimator that both takes into account the heteroskedasticity of financial returns (by using an exponentially weighted moving average) and reduces the effective dimensionality of the estimation (and hence measurement noise) via techniques borrowed from random matrix theory. We calculate…
VISTA learns causal structures by integrating local subgraphs, improving accuracy and efficiency.
problem Efficiently learning causal structures from high-dimensional observational data.

We study finite energy classes of quasiplurisubharmonic (qpsh) functions in the setting of toric compact K{ä}hler manifolds. We characterize toric qpsh functions and give necessary and sufficient conditions for them to have finite (weighted) energy, both in terms of the associated convex function in R n , and through t…
This paper develops a weighted L2-method for the (half) Dirac equation. For Dirac bundles over closed Riemann surfaces, we give a sufficient condition for the solvability of the (half) Dirac equation in terms of a curvature integral. Applying this to the Dolbeault-Dirac operator, we establish an automatic transversa…
We represent the coordinate ring of algebraic hulls (which are generalizations of the Malcev completions of nilpotent groups for solvable groups) of solvmanifolds G/Γ by using Miller's exponential iterated integrals (which are extensions of Chen's iterated integrals) of invariant differential forms.
This paper deals with the evaluation of double line integrals of the squared exponential covariance function. We propose a new approach in which the double integral is reduced to a single integral using the error function. This single integral is then computed with efficiently implemented numerical techniques. The perf…
We analyze exponential integrability properties of the Cox-Ingersoll-Ross (CIR) process and its Euler discretizations with various types of truncation and reflection at 0. These properties play a key role in establishing the finiteness of moments and the strong convergence of numerical approximations for a class of sto…
We show a higher order integrability theorem for distributions generated by a family of vector fields under a horizontal regularity assumption on their coefficients. We use as chart a class of almost exponential maps which we discuss in details

problem Memorizing datasets with randomized labels using deep neural networks.
method Using Gaussian random weights in the first layer and binary or integer weights in subsequent layers, we prove a new dependence on minimum distance.
result We show that O(δ1+n) neurons and O(δd+n) weights are sufficient.
We introduce a new recursive aggregation procedure called Bernstein Online Aggregation (BOA). The exponential weights include an accuracy term and a second order term that is a proxy of the quadratic variation as in Hazan and Kale (2010). This second term stabilizes the procedure that is optimal in different senses. We…
Integrating adaptive learning rate and momentum techniques into SGD leads to a large class of efficiently accelerated adaptive stochastic algorithms, such as AdaGrad, RMSProp, Adam, AccAdaGrad, \textit{etc}. In spite of their effectiveness in practice, there is still a large gap in their theories of convergences, espec…
Nonuniform tubular neighborhoods of curves in Euclidean n-space are studied by using weighted distance functions and generalizing the normal exponential map. Different notions of injectivity radii are introduced to investigate singular but injective exponential maps. A generalization of the thickness formula is obtaine…
We propose an explicit recursive method to approximate a power-law with a finite sum of weighted exponentials. Applications to moving averages with long memory are discussed in relationship with stochastic volatility models.
