Let $X_1,X_2,...$ be a sequence of independent and identically distributed random variables, and put $S_n=X_1+...+X_n$. Under some conditions on the positive sequence $\tau_n$ and the positive increasing sequence $a_n$, we give necessary…
In this paper, we investigate the combinatorial structure and asymptotic distribution of the solution set of the equation $\sigma(n+1) = k\sigma(n)$ for a given integer $k>1$. From a combinatorial perspective, the solutions to this equation…
We demonstrate how the asymptotics for large $|z|$ of the generalised Bessel function \[{}_0\Psi_1(z)=\sum_{n=0}^\infty\frac{z^n}{\Gamma(an+b) n!},\] where $a>-1$ and $b$ is any number (real or complex), may be obtained by exploiting the…

In this Note we present the main results from the recent work arxiv:1107.3251, which answers several conjectures raised fifty years ago by Kac. There Kac introduced a many-particle stochastic process (now denoted as Kac's master equation)…

Let $\{X_1, X_2, ... \}$ be a sequence of dependent heavy-tailed random variables with distributions $F_1, F_2,...$ on $(-\infty,\infty)$, and let $\tau$ be a nonnegative integer-valued random variable independent of the sequence $\{X_k, k…
We investigate the local distribution of roots of random functions of the form $F_n(z)= \sum_{i=1}^n \xi_i \phi_i(z) $, where $\xi_i$ are independent random variables and $\phi_i (z) $ are arbitrary analytic functions. Starting with the…
We study the small-scale asymptotic behaviour of the cosmic density-fluctuation power spectrum in the Zel'dovich approximation. For doing so, we extend Laplace's method in arbitrary dimensions and use it to prove that this power spectrum…
Our goal is to find an asymptotic behavior as $n\to\infty$ of the orthogonal polynomials $P_{n}(z)$ defined by Jacobi recurrence coefficients $a_{n}$ (off-diagonal terms) and $ b_{n}$ (diagonal terms). We consider the case $a_{n}\to\infty$,…
We study asymptotically optimal statistical inference concerning the unknown state of $N$ identical quantum systems, using two complementary approaches: a "poor man's approach" based on the van Trees inequality, and a rather more…
