Abstract

In this article we give an overview of Evarist Giné?s contributions to the modern probability theory and mathematical statistics in an infinite-dimensional setting. The sections correspond to the areas in which he had the most relevant participation: probability in Banach spaces, empirical processes, the bootstrap, U-statistics and U-processes, and mathematical statistics. Emphasis is put on the profound impact his work has had on the present probability theory, mathematical statistics and more recently machine learning. It also contains a short biography and a list of his publications. It has been written on the occasion of his death.
