Mean of probability distribution
I have a probability distribution defined by the following density function:
$f(k,j,n,m)=\frac{(m n)! \mathcal{S}_k^{(j)}}{(m n)^k (m n-j)!}$ (With $\mathcal{S}_k^{(j)}$ being the Stirling number of ...

$p$-norm of random variables and weighted $L^p$ space resemblance
I noticed a very similar relationship between weighted $L^p$ space (denoted $L_w^p$) and normed vector space of random variables. I want to unify these two spaces but there always seems to be a ...

Book recommendation in functional analysis and probability
I am interested by functional analysis and probability. I would like to know if you have any books that deal with these two subjects (at a graduate level) to recommend?
I'm looking for a book that has ...

Looking for a counterexample: Conditioning increases regularity?
Let $p(x,y,z)$ be a joint density (over $\mathbb{R}^3$) under no smoothness or regularity assumptions, besides its existence. I am looking for a (counter)example where $p(y|x)$ is less regular than $p(...

Dependence and $L^2$ projections of functions
tl;dr: Is it possible that the best approximation to a nonnegative function of three variables with a bivariate function is no better than the best univariate function?
Let $w$ be a density on $\...

Holder-Besov space and time continuity
Let $\mathbb{T}^d$ be the $d$-dimensional torus, $\mathscr{S}:=C^\infty(\mathbb{T}^d)$ the Schwartz space, $\mathscr{S}'$ the space of tempered distributions.
We consider a dyadic partition of unity $(...

Gaussian Hypercontractivity of Chaos based on Gaussian with value in Hilbert spaces?
The classical Gaussian hypercontractivity is stated as following: Suppose $\xi$ is a Gaussian variable and $H_n(\xi)$ is the space of n-th homogeneous Wiener chaos constructed from $\xi$, then for any ...

Injectivity of a convolution operator
Let $p,\mu,\nu$ be probability density functions on
$\mathbb{R}$ such that
$$
\int_{\mathbb{R}}p(y-x) \nu(y) \, dy=\mu(x).
$$ Now, consider the operator $T:L^2(\mu)\to L^2(\nu)$ such that $$ Tf=f*p.$$ ...

Continuity of disintegrations in non locally compact spaces
Let $X$ and $Y$ be Radon spaces, $\mu$ a Borel probability measure on $X$, $F\colon X\to Y$ measurable. Then the disintegration theorem gives us a disintegration $\{\mu^y\}_{y\in Y}$ of $\mu$ with ...

References for a class of Banach space-valued Gaussian processes
Let $E$ be a separable Banach space, consider a centered $E$-valued Gaussian process $\{x_t,t\ge 0\}$ that satisfies
\begin{equation}
\mathbb{E}\phi(x_s)\psi(x_t)=R(s,t)K(\phi,\psi),\quad \phi,\psi\in ...

embedding spaces of probability measures to function spaces
Let $X, Y$ be Banach spaces. I'm considering a bounded linear functional $g:X\to Y$ and its lift $g_\sharp: \mathcal{P}(X)\to \mathcal{P}(Y)$.
I want to consider the inverse of $g_\sharp$ in some ...

Measurable Extension
Let $(\Omega, \mathcal{F})$ be a measurable space and $X$ some metric space (probably Polish) with the Borel $\sigma$-algebra and a function $f: \Omega \times X \to \mathbb{R}$. Usually, functions ...

Projection on a countable union of linear subspace
For any natural number $n$, $V_n$ denotes a closed linear subspace of a $L_2(m)$ space, which is an Hilbert Space, where $m$ denotes a finite measure. Moreover $(V_n)$ is increasing, that is $V_n$ is ...

Ball in separable Banach space has positive Gaussian measure
I have (presumably non-degenerate) Gaussian $\mu$ over separable Banach space $X$. I would like to prove that for any ball of radius $r$ centered at $x$, $\mu(B_r(x))$. I know how to prove this in ...

Existence of a positive measurable set with disjoint preimage under iterated transformation
Let $(X,\mathcal B,\mu)$ be a atomless probability measure space and $T:X\to X$ be a non-singular transformation such that $\mu\left({x\in X: T^n(x)=x}\right)=0$ for every $n\ge 1$. Let $A\in \mathcal ...
