Let $(\Omega,\mathcal{B},P)$ be a probability space, $\mathcal{A}\subset\mathcal{B}$ a sub-$\sigma$-field, and $\mu$ a regular conditional distribution for $P$ given $\mathcal{A}$. Necessary and sufficient conditions for $\mu(\omega)(A)$ to…

We use an information-theoretic argument due to O'Connell (2000) to prove that every sufficiently symmetric event concerning a countably infinite family of independent and identically distributed random variables is deterministic (i.e., has…

We give a framework for dealing with 0-1 laws (for first order logic) such that expanding by further random structure tend to give us another case of the framework. From another perspective we deal with 0-1 laws when the number of solutions…

Let $\alpha \in (0,1)_{\mathbb{R}}$ be irrational and $G_n = G_{n,1/n^\alpha}$ be the random graph with edge probability $1/n^\alpha$; we know that it satisfies the 0-1 law for first order logic. We deal with the failure of the 0-1 law for…

The main result is the following Theorem: Let p=p(n) be such that p(n) in [0,1] for all n and either p(n)<< n^{-1} or for some positive integer k, n^{-1/k}<< p(n)<< n^{-1/(k+1)} or for all epsilon >0, n^{- epsilon}<< p(n) and n^{-…

Let $(\Omega,\mathcal{F})$ be a standard Borel space and $\mathcal{P}(\mathcal{F})$ the collection of all probability measures on $\mathcal{F}$. Let $E\subset\Omega\times\Omega$ be a measurable equivalence relation, that is,…

We consider the random graph M^n_{\bar{p}} on the set [n], were the probability of {x,y} being an edge is p_{|x-y|}, and \bar{p}=(p_1,p_2,p_3,...) is a series of probabilities. We consider the set of all \bar{q} derived from \bar{p} by…

Shelah Spencer [ShSp:304] proved the 0-1 law for the random graphs G(n,p_n), p_n=n^{- alpha}, alpha in (0,1) irrational (set of nodes in [n]= {1, ...,n}, the edges are drawn independently, probability of edge is p_n). One may wonder what…

A set of binary random variables indexed by a lattice torus is considered. Under a mixing hypothesis, the probability of any proposition belonging to the first order logic of colored graphs tends to 0 or 1, as the size of the lattice tends…

In this paper, we prove that for every positive $\varepsilon$, there exists an $\alpha\in(1/(k-1),1/(k-1)+\varepsilon)$ such that the binomial random graph $G(n,n^{-\alpha})$ does not obey 0-1 law w.r.t. first order sentences with k…

Let $\alpha\in(0,1)_\mathbb{R}$ be irrational and $G_n = G_{{n, 1/n}^\alpha}$ be the random graph with edge probability $1/n^\alpha$; we know that it satisfies the 0-1 law for first order logic. We deal with the failure of the 0-1 law for…

Let $A=(a_{ij})$ be an $n$-by-$n$ matrix. For any real number $\mu$, we define the polynomial $$P_\mu(A)=\sum_{\sigma\in S_n} a_{1\sigma(1)}\cdots a_{n\sigma(n)}\,\mu^{\ell(\sigma)}\; ,$$ as the $\mu$-permanent of $A$, where $\ell(\sigma)$…

A central limit theorem is established for a sum of random variables belonging to a sequence of random fields. The fields are assumed to have zero mean conditional on the past history and to satisfy certain conditional $\alpha$-mixing…

Let G_n be the random graph on [n]= {1, ...,n} with the possible edge {i,j} having probability being p_{|i-j|}= 1/|i-j|^alpha, alpha in (0,1) irrational. We prove that the zero one law (for first order logic) holds. The paper is continued…

Two infinite 0-1 sequences are called compatible when it is possible to cast out 0's from both in such a way that they become complementary to each other. Answering a question of Peter Winkler, we show that if the two 0-1-sequences are…

In this paper, we investigate the convergence of products of conditional expectation operators. We show that if $(\Omega,\cal{F},P)$ is a probability space that is not purely atomic, then divergent sequences of products of conditional…

We find a logic really stronger than first order for the random graph with edge probability $\frac 12$ but satisfies the 0-1 law. This means that on the one hand it satisfies the 0-1 law, e.g. for the random graph ${\mathcal G}_{n,1/2}$ and…

We propose a sequential topology on the space of sub-$\sigma$-algebras of a separable probability space $(\Omega,\mathcal{F},\mathbb{P})$ by linking conditional expectations on $L^{2}$ along sequences of sub-$\sigma$-algebras. The varying…

For $\alpha>0$ and $\sigma > 0$, we consider the following probability distribution on $\alpha\mathbb N_0$: $\pi_{\alpha,\sigma} = \exp \big(- \frac{\sigma}{{\alpha}^2}\big) \sum_{n=0}^{\infty} \frac{1}{n!}…

Zero-one laws state that probabilistic events of a certain type must occur with probability either $0$ or $1$, and nothing in between. We formulate a syntactic zero-one law, which enjoys good logical properties while being broadly…
