AbstractProbability measures satisfying a Poincaré inequality are known to enjoy a dimension-free concentration inequality with exponential rate. A celebrated result of Bobkov and Ledoux shows that a Poincaré inequality automatically implies a modified logarithmic Sobolev inequality. As a consequence the Poincaré inequality ensures a stronger dimension-free concentration property, known as two-level concentration. We show that a similar phenomenon occurs for the Latała–Oleszkiewicz inequalities, which were devised to uncover dimension-free concentration with rate between exponential and Gaussian. Motivated by the search for counterexamples to related questions, we also develop analytic techniques to study functional inequalities for probability measures on the line with wild potentials.

AbstractIn this paper we study $$L_2$$ L 2 -norm sampling discretization and sampling recovery of complex-valued functions in RKHS on $$D \subset \mathbb {R}^d$$ D ⊂ R d based on random function samples. We only assume the finite trace of the kernel (Hilbert–Schmidt embedding into $$L_2$$ L 2 ) and provide several concrete estimates with precise constants for the corresponding worst-case errors. In general, our analysis does not need any additional assumptions and also includes the case of non-Mercer kernels and also non-separable RKHS. The fail probability is controlled and decays polynomially in n, the number of samples. Under the mild additional assumption of separability we observe improved rates of convergence related to the decay of the singular values. Our main tool is a spectral norm concentration inequality for infinite complex random matrices with independent rows complementing earlier results by Rudelson, Mendelson, Pajor, Oliveira and Rauhut.

We consider a stationary Poisson hyperplane process with given directional distribution and intensity in d-dimensional Euclidean space. Generalizing the zero cell of such a process, we fix a convex body K and consider the intersection of all closed halfspaces bounded by hyperplanes of the process and containing K. We study how well these random polytopes approximate K (measured by the Hausdorff distance) if the intensity increases, and how this approximation depends on the directional distribution in relation to properties of K.
