    Unpublished Manuscripts

    A Vector Bimeasure Integral With Some Applications (1988--1989).
    Sometimes three different conditions are assumed in order to define a bimeasure integral.
    It is shown here that two of them imply the third one. (Postscript, PDF)

    L2-Expansion via Iterated Gradients: Ornstein-Uhlenbeck Semigroup and Entropy (1993-1994).
    An expansion involving the Ornstein-Uhlenbeck semigroup is presented.
    This gives new classes of inequalities. (Postscript, PDF)

    A Note on Jackknife Based Estimates of Sampling Distibutions (1995--1996).
    In this paper the jackknife is viewed as a statistical gradient. This allows for a transfer of the
    "functional analytic" framework of obtaining concentration inequalities to a statistical one. (Postscript, PDF)

    Transportation Distance and the Central Limit Theorem (with S. Ekisheva) (Postscript, PDF)
