We give an extension of Le's stochastic sewing lemma. The stochastic sewing lemma proves convergence in Lm of Riemann type sums ∑[s,t]∈πAs,t for an adapted two-parameter stochastic process A, under certain conditions on the moments o ...
Epsilon-near-zero (ENZ) materialshave attracted great interestdue to their exotic linear and nonlinear responses, which makes itsignificant to tune ENZ wavelengths for wavelength-dependent applications.However, studies to achieve tunability in a wide spect ...
This thesis consists of three applications of machine learning techniques to empirical asset pricing.
In the first part, which is co-authored work with Oksana Bashchenko, we develop a new method that detects jumps nonparametrically in financial time series ...
Given a sequence L & x2d9;epsilon of Levy noises, we derive necessary and sufficient conditions in terms of their variances sigma 2(epsilon) such that the solution to the stochastic heat equation with noise sigma(epsilon)-1L & x2d9;epsilon converges in law ...
Fractional Levy motion has been derived from its generalized Langevin equation via path integrals in earlier works and has since proven to be a useful model for nonlocal and non-Markovian processes, especially in the context of nondiffusive transport. Here ...
A constrained informationally efficient market is defined as one in which the price process arises as the outcome of some equilibrium where agents face restrictions on trade. This paper investigates the case of short sale constraints, a setting which, desp ...
When a strict local martingale is projected onto a subfiltration to which it is not adapted, the local martingale property may be lost, and the finite variation part of the projection may have singular paths. This phenomenon has consequences for arbitrage ...
Consider a discrete-time martingale, and let V-2 be its normalized quadratic variation. As V-2 approaches 1, and provided that some Lindeberg condition is satisfied, the distribution of the rescaled martingale approaches the Gaussian distribution. For any ...
It is demonstrated here that three different alpha-amino N-carboxyanhydrides (NCAs), including for the first time O-benzyl-L-threonine NCA, can be polymerized in a controlled/"living" fashion without the need for transition metal catalysts or complex custo ...
In situ electron microscope observations of defects show that the incident high-energy electrons influence the evolution of microstructure of an irradiated material, reducing the number of defects seen in the field of view of the microscope. We investigate ...
A continuous interior penalty hp-finite element method that penalizes the jump of the discrete solution across mesh interfaces is introduced. Error estimates are obtained for first-order and advection-dominated transport operators. The analysis relies on t ...
Signal detection is one of the basic problems in statistical communication theory, and has many applications to contemporary technology, whether in engineering, medical science, or the environment. The most difficult problems are those involving random sig ...
