Smoothing by mollifiers. Part II: nonlinear optimization
This article complements the paper [7], where we showed that a compact feasible set of a standard semi-infinite optimization problem can be approximated arbitrarily well by a leve...

A Unified Approach for Finite-Dimensional, Rare-Event Monte Carlo Simulation
We consider the problem of estimating the small probability that a function of a finite number of random variables exceeds a large threshold. Each input random variable may be lig...

X-Armed Bandits
We consider a generalization of stochastic bandit problems where the set of arms, X, is allowed to be a generic topological space. We constraint the mean-payoff function with a di...
