Rabi Bhattacharya
Rabindra Nath Bhattacharya (born January 11, 1937) is a mathematician/statistician at the University of Arizona. He works in the fields of probability theory and theoretical statistics where he has made fundamental contributions to long-standing problems in both areas. Most notable are (1) his solution to the multidimensional rate of convergence problem for the central limit theorem in his Ph.D. thesis published in the Bulletin of the American Mathematical Society and further elaborated in a research monograph written jointly with R. Ranga Rao and (2) the solution of the validity of the formal Edgeworth expansion in collaboration with J.K. Ghosh in 1978. He has also contributed significantly to the theory and application of Markov processes, including numerous co-authored papers on problems in groundwater hydrology with Vijay K. Gupta, and in economics with Mukul Majumdar. Most recently his research has focused on nonparametric statistical inference on manifolds and its applicatio ...

Mathematics
Mathematics is an area of knowledge that includes the topics of numbers, formulas and related structures, shapes and the spaces in which they are contained, and quantities and their changes. These topics are represented in modern mathematics with the major subdisciplines of number theory, algebra, geometry, and analysis, respectively. There is no general consensus among mathematicians about a common definition for their academic discipline. Most mathematical activity involves the discovery of properties of abstract objects and the use of pure reason to prove them. These objects consist of either abstractions from nature orin modern mathematicsentities that are stipulated to have certain properties, called axioms. A ''proof'' consists of a succession of applications of deductive rules to already established results. These results include previously proved theorems, axioms, andin case of abstraction from naturesome basic properties that are considered true starting points of ...

Annals Of Probability
The ''Annals of Probability'' is a leading peer-reviewed probability journal published by the Institute of Mathematical Statistics, which is the main international society for researchers in the areas probability and statistics. The journal was started in 1973 as a continuation in part of the ''Annals of Mathematical Statistics'', which was split into the ''Annals of Statistics'' and this journal. In July 2021, the journal was ranked 7th in the field Probability & Statistics with Applications according to Google Scholar. It had an impact factor of 1.470 (as of 2010), according to the ''Journal Citation Reports''. The impact factor for 2018 is 2.085.
