Differentially Private Online Bayesian Estimation With Adaptive Truncation, Sinan Yildirim Feb 2024

Differentially Private Online Bayesian Estimation With Adaptive Truncation, Sinan Yildirim

Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences

In this paper, a novel online and adaptive truncation method is proposed for differentially private Bayesian online estimation of a static parameter regarding a population. A local differential privacy setting is assumed where sensitive information from individuals is collected on an individual level and sequentially. The inferential aim is to estimate, on the fly, a static parameter regarding the population to which those individuals belong. We propose sequential Monte Carlo to perform online Bayesian estimation. When individuals provide sensitive information in response to a query, it is necessary to corrupt it with privacy-preserving noise to ensure the privacy of those …


Extremal Functions For A Singular Super-Critical Trudinger-Moser Inequality, Juan Zhao Jan 2024

Extremal Functions For A Singular Super-Critical Trudinger-Moser Inequality, Juan Zhao

Turkish Journal of Mathematics

In this paper, we deal with a singular super-critical Trudinger-Moser inequality on a unit ball of Rn , n ≥ 3. For any p > 1, we set λp(B) = inf u∈W1,n 0 (B),u̸≡0 ∫ B |∇u|ndx ( ∫ B |u|pdx)n/p as an eigenvalue related to the n-Laplacian. Let S be a set of radially symmetric functions. Precisely, if β ≥ 0 and α < (1 + p nβ)n−1+n/pλp(B) , then there exists a positive constant ϵ0 such that when λ ≤ 1 + ϵ0 , sup u∈W1,n 0 (B)∩S, ∫ B |∇u|ndx−α( ∫ B |u|p|x|pβdx) np ≤1 ∫ B |x|pβ ( eαn(1+ p n β)|u| n n−1 − λ Σm k=0 |αn(1 + p nβ)u n n−1 |k k! ) dx is attained, where αn = nω1/(n−1) n−1 , ωn−1 is the surface area of the unit ball in Rn . The proof is based on the method of blow-up analysis. The case λ = 0 was studied by Yang-Zhu in [38]. de Figueiredo [11] considered the case p = 2, β ≥ 0, and α = 0 in two dimension. The case λ = 0, p = n,−1 < β < 0, and α = 0 was considered by Adimurthi-Sandeep [1]. Our results extend those of the above cases.


On The Invariance Of Hyperstoneanness Under Lattice Isomorphisms, Banu Güntürk Jan 2024

On The Invariance Of Hyperstoneanness Under Lattice Isomorphisms, Banu Güntürk

Turkish Journal of Mathematics

Let X and Y be compact Hausdorff spaces with Y hyperstonean. In this paper, we prove that if C(X,R) and C(Y,R) are lattice isomorphic then these Banach spaces are linearly isometric, and, consequently, X and Y are homeomorphic, which in turn implies that X is also hyperstonean. Actually, we prove more than what is announced in the headline above. This result, in some ways, is a generalization of the well-known Banach-Stone theorem.


Invariant Symplectic Forms On Number Fields, Ahmad Rafiqi, Ayberk Zeyti̇n Jan 2024

Invariant Symplectic Forms On Number Fields, Ahmad Rafiqi, Ayberk Zeyti̇n

Turkish Journal of Mathematics

We show that a number field of the form Q(λ) admits a symplectic form which is invariant under multiplication by λ if and only if the minimal polynomial of λ is palindromic of even degree. In particular, if λ is an algebraic integer, it is forced to be a unit. In the case when the minimal polynomial of λ is palindromic of degree 2d, we show that there is a d-dimensional space of invariant symplectic forms on Q(λ) .

Turkish Journal of Chemistry

In this study, β-2-heteroaryl substituted (N-methyl 2-pyrrolyl, 2-thiophenyl, 2-furyl) α,β-unsaturated ketones were reacted with two α-diazo carbonyl compounds that had different characteristics (dimethyl diazo malonate and 1-diazo-1-phenyl-propane-2-one) in the presence of both copper and rhodium catalysts. In the case of reactions with N-methyl 2-pyrrolyl α,β-unsaturated ketones, the major product was the insertion derivative. However, in the reactions of 2-thiophenyl and 2-furyl α,β-unsaturated ketones with dimethyl diazomalonate (acceptor-acceptor disubstituted), only dihydrofuran products were formed over carbonyl ylides. When 2-thiophenyl and 2-furyl α,β-unsaturated ketones were reacted with 1-diazo-1-phenyl-propane-2-one (donor-acceptor disubstituted), 1-phenylpropane-1,2-dione was obtained under our reaction conditions.
