In this paper, we give a short Bayesian proof of Talagrand's celebrated majorizing-measure theorem (MMT). While the upper-bound direction of MMT follows relatively directly from standard arguments, the lower-bound direction is widely…

We study Bernoulli percolation on $\mathbb Z^d$ in dimensions ${d>6}$. We prove that a classical consequence of the van den Berg-Kesten inequality, often referred to as the Simon-Lieb inequality in the context of the Ising model, admits a…

Given a finite abelian group $G$ and a Sylow $p$-subgroup $N_p$, we prove that the $KU_G/p$-local sphere spectrum is equivalent to the homotopy fixed points of a $p$-complete $KO_{N_p}$-module spectrum. Then we compute the…

The renewal contact process is a non-Markovian variant of the classical contact process in which recoveries are governed by independent renewal processes with interarrival distribution $\mu$. We establish new sufficient conditions ensuring…

Let $\mathcal{H}(b)$ be the de Branges-Rovnyak space associated to a non-extreme point $b$ of the unit ball of $H^\infty$, and let $\phi=b/a$, where $a$ is the Pythagorean mate of $b$. It is known that, if $f$ is a function holomorphic on a…

We derive closed form expressions for the lower expectations that correspond to total variation distance and chi-squared divergence balls around a probability mass function over a finite set.

We investigate integration by parts (IBP) formulae for stochastic Volterra equations and we establish the smoothing effect of the expectation. Due to the inherent path-dependent dynamics of this class of processes, standard…

Importance sampling (IS) consists in biasing samples from a distribution $f$ towards another distribution $g$. Concretely, given samples $X_i$ from $f$, the IS measure is $$\hat{g}_n = \frac{1}{Z_n}\sum_{i=1}^n \frac{g(X_i)}{f(X_i)}…

Using the Baxter-Kelland-Wu coupling and the convergence of the height function of the six-vertex model to the Gaussian Free Field, we extract critical exponents for the planar critical random-cluster model at $q=4$, and the planar…

We use the machinery of a conditional probability space (R\'enyi, 1955) to obtain an Agreement Theorem (Aumann, 1976) under general conditions. A conditional probability space (CPS) is a family of probability measures defined relative to a…

We consider $N\times N$ matrices $X$ with independent, identically distributed entries, and prove that the sequence of measures $\frac{ | \det (X-z)|^\gamma}{\mathbb{E}[ | \det (X-z)|^\gamma]}$ converge to the Gaussian Multiplicative Chaos…

The term Gibbons conjecture is widely used in connection with symmetry results for the Allen-Cahn equation. However, its origin is less transparent than its frequent citation suggests. In this note, we revisit its emergence, tracing it to a…

Let $\mathfrak{g}$ be a symmetrizable Kac-Moody Lie algebra and let $\rho$ denote the sum of the fundamental weights. The irreducible highest weight representations $V(m\rho)$ occupy a distinguished position in representation theory due to…

The Wolff dynamics is a non-local Markov chain widely used for simulating the Ising model due to its effectiveness in reducing critical slowing down compared to the Glauber dynamics. Despite extensive algorithmic and numerical studies, a…

Let $(R,\frak m)$ be a generalized Cohen-Macaulay local ring of prime characteristic $p$. In this paper we give a sharp bound for the Frobenius test exponent of parameter ideals. Namely, we prove that $$\mathrm{Fte}(R) \le \lceil…

This paper investigates fractional Riesz-Bessel equations with random initial conditions that exhibit either classical or cyclic long-range dependence. It studies zoom-in asymptotics for the corresponding solutions and establishes…

We give a simple example of a polynomial contraction automorphism of $\mathbb C^d$, $ d\ge 3 $, with unbounded degree growth. Combined with Poincar\'e-Dulac theorem it provides an algebraic automorphism of $\mathbb C^d$, $ d\ge 3 $, which…

Let $R$ be a local or positively graded ring with a regular presentation $R \cong Q/I$ where $I$ is a monomial ideal generated by $n$ elements on a regular sequence. In Briggs-Grifo-Pollitz (2025), the authors classify the cohomological…

Consider a sequence of random polynomials $P_n(z) = \prod_{k=1}^{n}(z - X_k)$, where $\{X_k\}_k$ are i.i.d. random variables distributed uniformly on the unit disc $\mathbb{D}$. Let $\Lambda_n = \{z \in \mathbb{C}: |P_n(z)| < 1\}$ be the…

In our previous papers we repeatedly emphasized the special role in Quaternionic Analysis of the conformal group SU(2,2) and other real forms of its complexification SL(4,C). In particular, the natural product map of the left and right…
