We consider the distribution of the value of the optimal k-assignment in an m x n-matrix, where the entries are independent exponential random variables with arbitrary rates. We give closed formulas for both the Laplace transform of this…
We give a conjecture for the expected value of the optimal k-assignment in an m x n-matrix, where the entries are all exp(1)-distributed random variables or zeros. We prove this conjecture in the case there is a zero-cost $k-1$-assignment.…
Multi-cycle assignment problems address scenarios where a series of general assignment problems has to be solved sequentially. Subsequent cycles can differ from previous ones due to changing availability or creation of tasks and agents,…
An assignment problem is the optimization problem of finding, in an m by n matrix of nonnegative real numbers, k entries, no two in the same row or column, such that their sum is minimal. Such an optimization problem is called a random…
Many computational problems are unchanged under some symmetry operation. In classical machine learning, this can be reflected with the layer structure of the neural network. In quantum machine learning, the ansatz can be tuned to correspond…
We prove a number of results, new and old, about the cycle type of a random permutation on S_n. Underlying our analysis is the idea that the number of cycles of size k is roughly Poisson distributed with parameter 1/k. In particular, we…

Random-matrix theory is applied to transition-rate matrices in the Pauli master equation. We study the distribution and correlations of eigenvalues, which govern the dynamics of complex stochastic systems. Both the cases of identical and of…
We consider the problem of minimizing cost among one-to-one assignments of $n$ jobs onto $n$ machines. The random assignment problem refers to the case when the cost associated with performing jobs on machines are random variables. Aldous…
We examine the number of cycles of length k in a permutation, as a function on the symmetric group. We write it explicitly as a combination of characters of irreducible representations. This allows to study formation of long cycles in the…
Cyclic monotone independence is an algebraic notion of noncommutative independence, introduced in the study of multi-matrix random matrix models with small rank. Its algebraic form turns out to be surprisingly close to monotone…
In the paper, the new approach to the scheduling problem are described. The approach deals with the problem of planning the cyclic production and proposes to consider such scheduling problem as the cyclic job-shop problem of the order k,…
We discuss the optimal matching solution for both the assignment problem and the matching problem in one dimension for a large class of convex cost functions. We consider the problem in a compact set with the topology both of the interval…
We introduce a new class of large structured random matrices characterized by four fundamental properties which we discuss. We prove that this class is stable under matrix-valued and pointwise non-linear operations. We then formulate an…
In this paper we study different restrictions imposed over the set of permutations of size $n$, $S_n$, and for specific classes of restrictions study the cycle structure of corresponding permutations. More specifically, we prove that for…
Choosing control inputs randomly can result in a reduced expected cost in optimal control problems with stochastic constraints, such as stochastic model predictive control (SMPC). We consider a controller with initial randomization, meaning…
We investigate the typical cycle lengths, the total number of cycles, and the number of finite cycles in random permutations whose probability involves cycle weights. Typical cycle lengths and total number of cycles depend strongly on the…
The allocation problem for multivariate stratified random sampling as a problem of stochastic matrix integer mathematical programming is considered. With these aims the asymptotic normality of sample covariance matrices for each strata is…
Consider a cyclically ordered collection of $r$ equinumerous agent sets with strict preferences of every agent over the agents from the next agent set. A weakly stable cyclic matching is a partition of the set of agents into disjoint union…
This work unifies the analysis of various randomized methods for solving linear and nonlinear inverse problems by framing the problem in a stochastic optimization setting. By doing so, we show that many randomized methods are variants of a…
