    • A Sharp Uniform Bound for the Distribution of Sums of Bernoulli Trials 
      Baillon, Jean-Bernard; Cominetti Cotti-Cometti, Roberto; Vaisman Romero, José (Cambridge Univ. Press., 2016)
      In this note we establish a uniform bound for the distribution of a sum S-n = X-1 + ... + X-n of independent non-homogeneous Bernoulli trials. Specifically, we prove that sigma P-n(S-n = j) <= eta, where sigma(n) denotes ...
    • There is no variational characterization of the cycles in the method of periodic projections 
      Baillon, Jean-Bernard; Combettes, P. L.; Cominetti Cotti-Cometti, Roberto (ACADEMIC PRESS INC ELSEVIER SCIENCE, 2012-01-01)
      The method of periodic projections consists in iterating projections onto in closed convex subsets of a Hilbert space according to a periodic sweeping strategy. In the presence of in m >= 3 sets, a long-standing question ...
