Bayesian uncertainty management in temporal dependence of extremes

Anthony Christopher Davison, Thomas Lugrin, Jonathan A. Tawn

Both marginal and dependence features must be described when modelling the extremes of a stationary time series. There are standard approaches to marginal modelling, but long-and short-range dependence of extremes may both appear. In applications, an assum ...

Renormalization of Horava gravity

Sergey Sibiryakov, Diego Blas Temino, Mario Herrero Valea

We prove perturbative renormalizability of projectable Horava gravity. The key element of the argument is the choice of a gauge which ensures the correct anisotropic scaling of the propagators and their uniform falloff at large frequencies and momenta. Thi ...
