Quantization Dimension Estimate of Inhomogeneous Self-Similar Measures

Mrinal Kanti Roychowdhury (2013)

Bulletin of the Polish Academy of Sciences. Mathematics

We consider an inhomogeneous measure μ with the inhomogeneous part a self-similar measure ν, and show that for a given r ∈ (0,∞) the lower and the upper quantization dimensions of order r of μ are bounded below by the quantization dimension D r ( ν ) of ν and bounded above by a unique number κ r ( 0 , ) , related to the temperature function of the thermodynamic formalism that arises in the multifractal analysis of μ.

Robust optimality of Gaussian noise stability

Elchanan Mossel, Joe Neeman (2015)

Journal of the European Mathematical Society

We prove that under the Gaussian measure, half-spaces are uniquely the most noise stable sets. We also prove a quantitative version of uniqueness, showing that a set which is almost optimally noise stable must be close to a half-space. This extends a theorem of Borell, who proved the same result but without uniqueness, and it also answers a question of Ledoux, who asked whether it was possible to prove Borell’s theorem using a direct semigroup argument. Our quantitative uniqueness result has various...
