growth bound for solution of an ordinary integro-differential equation

I am considering the following ordinary integro-differential equation $$ A g = \sigma^2(y) + \int_\mathbb{R} \nu(y,dz) z^2 $$ where $$ A = b(y) \partial + \frac{1}{2} \sigma^2(y) \partial^2 + \int_\...

Elaborating Mercer's theorem (RKHS) on Cameron-Martin space $k(x,y)=\min(x,y)$

Hi, I'm trying to employ Mercer's theorem on the kernel $k(x,y)=\min(x,y)$. It is known (and easy to verify) that this is a nonnegative-definite kernel over $[0,T]$ for any $T>0$. Fix $T>0$. ...

Error analysis of implicit functions

I'm trying to do propagation of error using the linearized variance method (assuming independent variables, thus no need for the covariance terms): $$\sigma^2_f = \sum^n_{k=0} \left(\frac{\partial f}{...
