Series expansions of isotropic Gaussian random fields on $mathbb{S}^2$ with independent Gaussian coefficients and localized basis functions are constructed. Such representations provide an alternative to the standard Karhunen-Lo`eve expansions of isotropic random fields in terms of spherical harmonics. Their multilevel localized structure of basis functions is especially useful in adaptive algorithms. The basis functions are obtained by applying the square root of the covariance operator to spherical needlets. Localization of the resulting covariance-dependent multilevel basis is shown under decay conditions on the angular power spectrum of the random field. In addition, numerical illustrations are given and an application to random elliptic PDEs on the sphere is analyzed.

Centered Gaussian random fields (GRFs) indexed by compacta such as smooth, bounded Euclidean domains or smooth, compact and orientable manifolds are determined by their covariance operators. We consider centered GRFs given as variational solutions to coloring operator equations driven by spatial white noise, with an elliptic self-adjoint pseudodifferential coloring operator from the Hormander class. This includes the Matern class of GRFs as a special case. Using biorthogonal multiresolution analyses on the manifold, we prove that the precision and covariance operators, respectively, may be identified with bi-infinite matrices and finite sections may be diagonally preconditioned rendering the condition number independent of the dimension $p$ of this section. We prove that a tapering strategy by thresholding applied on finite sections of the bi-infinite precision and covariance matrices results in optimally numerically sparse approximations. That is, asymptotically only linearly many nonzero matrix entries are sufficient to approximate the original section of the bi-infinite covariance or precision matrix using this tapering strategy to arbitrary precision. The locations of these nonzero matrix entries are known a priori. The tapered covariance or precision matrices may also be optimally diagonally preconditioned. Analysis of the relative size of the entries of the tapered covariance matrices motivates novel, multilevel Monte Carlo (MLMC) oracles for covariance estimation, in sample complexity that scales log-linearly with respect to the number $p$ of parameters. In addition, we propose and analyze a novel compressive algorithm for simulating and kriging of GRFs. The complexity (work and memory vs. accuracy) of these three algorithms scales near-optimally in terms of the number of parameters $p$ of the sample-wise approximation of the GRF in Sobolev scales.
This paper is concerned with the existence of multiple points of Gaussian random fields. Under the framework of Dalang et al. (2017), we prove that, for a wide class of Gaussian random fields, multiple points do not exist in critical dimensions. The result is applicable to fractional Brownian sheets and the solutions of systems of stochastic heat and wave equations.
Random fields on the sphere play a fundamental role in the natural sciences. This paper presents a simulation algorithm parenthetical to the spectral turning bands method used in Euclidean spaces, for simulating scalar- or vector-valued Gaussian rand om fields on the $d$-dimensional unit sphere. The simulated random field is obtained by a sum of Gegenbauer waves, each of which is variable along a randomly oriented arc and constant along the parallels orthogonal to the arc. Convergence criteria based on the Berry-Esseen inequality are proposed to choose suitable parameters for the implementation of the algorithm, which is illustrated through numerical experiments. A by-product of this work is a closed-form expression of the Schoenberg coefficients associated with the Chentsov and exponential covariance models on spheres of dimensions greater than or equal to 2.
This paper develops a fractional stochastic partial differential equation (SPDE) to model the evolution of a random tangent vector field on the unit sphere. The SPDE is governed by a fractional diffusion operator to model the L{e}vy-type behaviour of the spatial solution, a fractional derivative in time to depict the intermittency of its temporal solution, and is driven by vector-valued fractional Brownian motion on the unit sphere to characterize its temporal long-range dependence. The solution to the SPDE is presented in the form of the Karhunen-Lo`{e}ve expansion in terms of vector spherical harmonics. Its covariance matrix function is established as a tensor field on the unit sphere that is an expansion of Legendre tensor kernels. The variance of the increments and approximations to the solutions are studied and convergence rates of the approximation errors are given. It is demonstrated how these convergence rates depend on the decay of the power spectrum and variances of the fractional Brownian motion.
We establish spectral expansions of homogeneous and isotropic random fields taking values in the $3$-dimensional Euclidean space $E^3$ and in the space $mathsf{S}^2(E^3)$ of symmetric rank $2$ tensors over $E^3$. The former is a model of turbulent fl uid velocity, while the latter is a model for the random stress tensor or the random conductivity tensor. We found a link between the theory of random fields and the theory of finite-dimensional convex compacta.
