Let $\Sigma \subset \mathbb{C}$ be a compact subset of the complex plane, and $\mu$ be a probability distribution on $\Sigma$. We give necessary and sufficient conditions for $\mu$ to be the weak* limit of a sequence of uniform probability…
Kolmogorov-Smirnov (KS) tests rely on the convergence to zero of the KS-distance $d(F_n,G)$ in the one sample case, and of $d(F_n,G_m)$ in the two sample case. In each case the assumption (the null hypothesis) is that $F=G$, and so…
Let $A$ be a compact set in $\Rp$ of Hausdorff dimension $d$. For $s\in(0,d)$, the Riesz $s$-equilibrium measure $\mu^{s,A}$ is the unique Borel probability measure with support in $A$ that minimizes $$…
Let $ p_n(x) $ be a random polynomial of degree $n$ and $\{Z^{(n)}_j\}_{j=1}^n$ and $\{X^{n, k}_j\}_{j=1}^{n-k}, k<n$, be the zeros of $p_n$ and $p_n^{(k)}$, the $k$th derivative of $p_n$, respectively. We show that if the linear statistics…
We derive explicit expressions for the volume elements of both the minimal and maximal monotone metrics over the (n^{2} - 1)-dimensional convex set of n x n density matrices for the cases n = 3 and 4. We make further progress for the…
We study global distribution of zeros for a wide range of ensembles of random polynomials. Two main directions are related to almost sure limits of the zero counting measures, and to quantitative results on the expected number of zeros in…
Given $\rho\in(0, 1/3]$, let $\mu$ be the Cantor measure satisfying $\mu=\frac{1}{2}\mu f_0^{-1}+\frac{1}{2}\mu f_1^{-1}$, where $f_i(x)=\rho x+i(1-\rho)$ for $i=0, 1$. The support of $\mu$ is a Cantor set $C$ generated by the iterated…
Given a second order parabolic operator $$ Lu(t,x) :=\frac{\partial u(t,x)}{\partial t} + a^{ij}(t,x)\partial_{x_i}\partial_{x_j}u(t,x) + b^i(t,x)\partial_{x_i}u(t,x), $$ we consider the weak parabolic equation $L^{*}\mu=0$ for Borel…
A composite positive integer $n$ is said to be a {\it weak Carmichael number} if $$ \sum_{\gcd(k,n)=1\atop 1\le k\le n-1}k^{n-1}\equiv \varphi(n) \pmod{n}. \leqno(1) $$ It is proved that a composite positive integer $n$ is a weak Carmichael…
The goal of this paper is to study weakly Einstein critical metrics of the volume functional on a compact manifold $M$ with smooth boundary $\partial M$. Here, we will give the complete classification for an $n$-dimensional, $n=3$ or $4,$…
Let $0<m<n$ be integers, and let $K_w$ denote the completion of a number field $K$ at a non-trivial place $w$. For each non-zero $\textbf{u}\in K_w^n$, let $\omega_{m-1}(\textbf{u})$ denote the exponent of best approximation to $\textbf{u}$…
This paper studies convergence of empirical measures smoothed by a Gaussian kernel. Specifically, consider approximating $P\ast\mathcal{N}_\sigma$, for $\mathcal{N}_\sigma\triangleq\mathcal{N}(0,\sigma^2 \mathrm{I}_d)$, by…
We prove that if $\mu_n$ are probability measures on $Z$ such that $\hat \mu_n$ converges to 0 uniformly on every compact subset of $(0,1)$, then there exists a subsequence $\{n_k\}$ such that the weighted ergodic averages corresponding to…
For a map of the unit interval with an indifferent fixed point, we prove an upper bound for the variance of all observables of $n$ variables $K:[0,1]^n\to\R$ which are componentwise Lipschitz. The proof is based on coupling and decay of…
We use Turan type inequalities to give new non-asymptotic bounds on the extreme zeros of orthogonal polynomials in terms of the coefficients of their three term recurrence. Most of our results deal with symmetric polynomials satisfying the…
Let $(X_1,\ldots,X_n)$ be an i.i.d. sequence of random variables in $\mathbb{R}^d$, $d\geq 1$. We show that, for any function $\varphi :\mathbb{R}^d\rightarrow\mathbb{R}$, under regularity conditions, \[n^…
We study the asymptotic behavior, as $n\to\infty$, of ratios of Toeplitz determinants $D_n(e^h d\mu)/D_n(d\mu)$ defined by a measure $\mu$ on the unit circle and a sufficiently smooth function $h$. The approach we follow is based on the…
We establish a discrepancy theorem for signed measures, with a given positive part, which are supported on an arbitrary convex curve. As a main application, we obtain a result concerning the distribution of zeros of polynomials orthogonal…
