In this paper, we introduce optimal versions of a multi-port based teleportation scheme allowing to send a large amount of quantum information. We fully characterise probabilistic and deterministic case by presenting expressions for the…
Let $d$ be a probability distribution. Under certain mild conditions we show that $$ \lim_{x\to\infty}x\sum_{n=1}^\infty \frac{d^{*n}(x)}{n}=1,\qquad\text{where}\quad d^{*n}:=\underbrace{\,d*d*\cdots*d\,}_{n\text{ times}}. $$ For a…
We consider a joint ordered multifactorisation for a given positive integer $n\geq 2$ into $m$ parts, where $n=n_1~\times~\ldots~\times~n_m$, and each part $n_j$ is split into one or more component factors. Our central result gives an…
Inspired by the results of Baik, Deift and Johansson on the limiting distribution of the lengths of the longest increasing subsequences in random permutations, we find those limiting distributions for pattern-restricted permutations in…
The ultimate limits of continuous-variable single-mode quantum teleportation due to absorption are studied, with special emphasis on (quasi-)monochromatic optical fields propagating through fibers. It is shown that even if an infinitely…
We consider the problem of allocating indivisible goods fairly among n agents who have additive and submodular valuations for the goods. Our fairness guarantees are in terms of the maximin share, that is defined to be the maximum value that…
The binary sum-of-digits function $s$ counts the number of ones in the binary expansion of a nonnegative integer. For any nonnegative integer $t$, T.~W.~Cusick defined the asymptotic density $c_t$ of integers $n\geq 0$ such that…
We consider the problem of extending an acyclic binary relation that is invariant under a given family of transformations into an invariant preference. We show that when a family of transformations is commutative, every acyclic invariant…
We consider a vector of $N$ independent binary variables, each with a different probability of success. The distribution of the vector conditional on its sum is known as the conditional Bernoulli distribution. Assuming that $N$ goes to…
The prime number 357686312646216567629137 is notable because of the unusual property that it remains prime successively on removing the left digit until there are no remaining digits. We explore here the distributions of the number of left…
We prove large deviation results for the position of the rightmost particle, denoted by $M_n$, in a one-dimensional branching random walk in a case when Cram\'er's condition is not satisfied. More precisely we consider step size…
Graded posets frequently arise throughout combinatorics, where it is natural to try to count the number of elements of a fixed rank. These counting problems are often $\#\textbf{P}$-complete, so we consider approximation algorithms for…
We prove that every odd number $N$ greater than 1 can be expressed as the sum of at most five primes, improving the result of Ramar\'e that every even natural number can be expressed as the sum of at most six primes. We follow the circle…
In studying the complexity of iterative processes it is usually assumed that the arithmetic operations of addition, multiplication, and division can be performed in certain constant times. This assumption is invalid if the precision…
Anomalous diffusion or, more generally, anomalous transport, with nonlinear dependence of the mean-squared displacement on the measurement time, is ubiquitous in nature. It has been observed in processes ranging from microscopic movement of…
Exponential stochastic compression is the process when every second cell of an infinite chain may increase its weight merging randomly with left, right, or both neighboring cells. The total mass conservation is assumed. After that, merged…
We describe a general strategy for sampling configurations from a given distribution, NOT based on the standard Metropolis (Markov chain) strategy. It uses the fact that nontrivial problems in statistical physics are high dimensional and…
The integer division of a numerator n by a divisor d gives a quotient q and a remainder r. Optimizing compilers accelerate software by replacing the division of n by d with the division of c * n (or c * n + c) by m for convenient integers c…
We study the approximability of Max Ones when the number of variable occurrences is bounded by a constant. For conservative constraint languages (i.e., when the unary relations are included) we give a complete classification when the number…
Consider a finite sequence of permutations of the elements 1,...,n, with the property that each element changes its position by at most 1 from any permutation to the next. We call such a sequence a tangle, and we define a move of element i…
