Abstract
Simple renormalization arguments can often be used to calculate optimal rates of convergence for estimating linear functionals from indirect measurements contaminated with white noise. This allows one to quickly identify optimal rates for certain problems of density estimation, nonparametric regression, signal recovery and tomography. Optimal kernels may also be derived from renormalization; we give examples for deconvolution and tomography.
