Remarques sur le maximum de vraisemblance
Some paradoxes on the maximum likelihood principle are presented and commented. We consider the properties of the maximum likelihood estimators as a particular case of the M-estimators. We propose a unified theory which includes non-dominated models. Several examples are given
Reflection groups in hyperbolic spaces and the denominator formula for Lorentzian Kac--Moody Lie algebras
This is a continuation of our "Lecture on Kac--Moody Lie algebras of the
arithmetic type" \cite{25}.
We consider hyperbolic (i.e. signature ) integral symmetric bilinear
form (i.e. hyperbolic lattice), reflection group
, fundamental polyhedron \Cal M of and an acceptable
(corresponding to twisting coefficients) set P({\Cal M})\subset M of vectors
orthogonal to faces of \Cal M (simple roots). One can construct the
corresponding Lorentzian Kac--Moody Lie algebra {\goth g}={\goth
g}^{\prime\prime}(A(S,W,P({\Cal M}))) which is graded by .
We show that \goth g has good behavior of imaginary roots, its denominator
formula is defined in a natural domain and has good automorphic properties if
and only if \goth g has so called {\it restricted arithmetic type}. We show
that every finitely generated (i.e. P({\Cal M}) is finite) algebra {\goth
g}^{\prime\prime}(A(S,W_1,P({\Cal M}_1))) may be embedded to {\goth
g}^{\prime\prime}(A(S,W,P({\Cal M}))) of the restricted arithmetic type. Thus,
Lorentzian Kac--Moody Lie algebras of the restricted arithmetic type is a
natural class to study.
Lorentzian Kac--Moody Lie algebras of the restricted arithmetic type have the
best automorphic properties for the denominator function if they have {\it a
lattice Weyl vector }. Lorentzian Kac--Moody Lie algebras of the
restricted arithmetic type with generalized lattice Weyl vector are
called {\it elliptic}Comment: Some corrections in Sects. 2.1, 2.2 were done. They don't reflect on

Statistical analysis of the generalized additive semiparametric survival model with random covariate
Generalizations of the additive hazards model are considered. Estimates of the regression parameters and baseline function are proposed, when covariates are random. The asymptotic properties of estimators are considered

The Geometry and Moduli of K3 Surfaces
These notes will give an introduction to the theory of K3 surfaces. We begin
with some general results on K3 surfaces, including the construction of their
moduli space and some of its properties. We then move on to focus on the theory
of polarized K3 surfaces, studying their moduli, degenerations and the
compactification problem. This theory is then further enhanced to a discussion
of lattice polarized K3 surfaces, which provide a rich source of explicit
examples, including a large class of lattice polarizations coming from elliptic
fibrations. Finally, we conclude by discussing the ample and Kahler cones of K3
surfaces, and give some of their applications.Comment: 34 pages, 2 figures. (R. Laza, M. Schutt and N. Yui, eds.
Neurophysiophenomenology – predicting emotional arousal from brain arousal in a virtual reality roller coaster
Arousal is a core affect constituted of both bodily and subjective states that prepares an agent to respond to events of the natural environment. While the peripheral physiological components of arousal have been examined also under naturalistic conditions, its neural correlates were suggested mainly on the basis of simplifed experimental designs. We used virtual reality (VR) to present a highly immersive and contextually rich scenario of roller coaster rides to evoke naturalistic states of emotional arousal. Simultaneously, we recorded EEG to validate the suggested neural correlates of arousal in alpha frequency oscillations (8-12Hz) over temporo-parietal cortical areas. To fnd the complex link between these alpha components and the participants’ continuous subjective reports of arousal, we employed a set of complementary analytical methods coming from machine learning and deep learning
Surface-enhanced optical third-harmonic generation in Ag island films
Surface-enhanced optical third-harmonic generation (THG) is observed in
silver island films. The THG intensity from Ag nanoparticles is enhanced by
more than two orders of magnitude with respect to the THG intensity from a
smooth and homogeneous silver surface. This enhancement is attributed to local
plasmon excitation and resonance of the local field at the third-harmonic
wavelength. The diffuse and depolarized component of the enhanced THG is
associated with the third-order hyper-Rayleigh scattering in a 2-D random array
of silver nanoparticles.Comment: 4 pages, 2 figure
Bolshev's method of confidence limit construction
Confidence intervals and regions for the parameters of a distribution are constructed, following the method due to L. N. Bolshev. This construction method is illustrated with Poisson, exponential, Bernouilli, geometric, normal and other distributions depending on parameters
The Kodaira dimension of the moduli of K3 surfaces
The moduli space of polarised K3 surfaces of degree 2d is a quasi-projective
variety of dimension 19. For general d very little has been known about the
Kodaira dimension of these varieties. In this paper we present an almost
complete solution to this problem. Our main result says that this moduli space
is of general type for d>61 and for d=46,50,54,58,60.Comment: 47 page
Del Pezzo surfaces with 1/3(1,1) points
We classify del Pezzo surfaces with 1/3(1,1) points in 29 qG-deformation
families grouped into six unprojection cascades (this overlaps with work of
Fujita and Yasutake), we tabulate their biregular invariants, we give good
model constructions for surfaces in all families as degeneracy loci in rep
quotient varieties and we prove that precisely 26 families admit
qG-degenerations to toric surfaces. This work is part of a program to study
mirror symmetry for orbifold del Pezzo surfaces.Comment: 42 pages. v2: model construction added of last remaining surface,
