We propose a unified framework for random locations exhibiting some probabilistic symmetries such as stationarity, self-similarity, etc. A theorem of Noether's type is proved, which gives rise to a conservation law describing the change of…
Large-scale empirical data, the sample size and the dimension are high, often exhibit various characteristics. For example, the noise term follows unknown distributions or the model is very sparse that the number of critical variables is…
We study here the random diffusion model. This is a continuum model for a conserved scalar density field $\phi$ driven by diffusive dynamics. The interesting feature of the dynamics is that the {\it bare} diffusion coefficient $D$ is…
Mass-stationarity means that the origin is at a typical location in the mass of a random measure. It is an intrinsic characterisation of Palm versions with respect to stationary random measures. Stationarity is the special case when the…
When the distribution of a random (N) sum of independent copies of a r.v X is of the same type as that of X we say that X is N-sum stable. In this paper we consider a generalization of stability of geometric sums by studying distributions…
Motivated by the problem of robustness to deformations of the input for deep convolutional neural networks, we identify signal classes which are inherently stable to irregular deformations induced by distortion fields $\tau\in…
This expository paper treats the model theory of probability spaces using the framework of continuous $[0,1]$-valued first order logic. The metric structures discussed, which we call probability algebras, are obtained from probability…
Lasso and other regularization procedures are attractive methods for variable selection, subject to a proper choice of shrinkage parameter. Given a set of potential subsets produced by a regularization algorithm, a consistent model…
The extremal characteristics of random structures, including trees, graphs, and networks, are discussed. A statistical physics approach is employed in which extremal properties are obtained through suitably defined rate equations. A variety…
In principle, all the natural systems such as biological, ecological and economical systems are structure-variable systems (in which some environment parameters are not fixed). In this Letter we show that data sequences from many…
We study approximate $\aleph_0$-categoricity of theories of beautiful pairs of randomizations, in the sense of continuous logic. This leads us to disprove a conjecture of Ben Yaacov, Berenstein and Henson, by exhibiting…
In this paper we start a global study of the parameter space (dissipation, perturbation, frequency) of the dissipative spin-orbit problem in Celestial Mechanics with the aim of delimiting regions where the dynamics, or at least some of its…
In the second paper of this series we extend our Bayesian reanalysis of the evidence for a cosmic variation of the fine structure constant to the semi-parametric modelling regime. By adopting a mixture of Dirichlet processes prior for the…
We consider the question of defining interleaving metrics on generalized persistence modules over arbitrary preordered sets. Our constructions are functorial, which implies a form of stability for these metrics. We describe a large class of…
The aim of this paper is to present an elementary computable theory of probability, random variables and stochastic processes. The probability theory is baed on existing approaches using valuations and lower integrals. Various approaches to…
We consider the stationary (time-independent) Navier-Stokes equations in the whole threedimensional space, under the action of a source term and with the fractional Laplacian operator (--$\Delta$) $\alpha$/2 in the diffusion term. In the…
We give a short analytic proof of local large deviations for i.i.d. random variables in the domain of a multivariate $\alpha$-stable law, $\alpha\in(0,1)\cup(1,2]$. Our method simultaneously covers lattice and nonlattice distributions (and…
We present a method to find the best temporal partition at any time-scale and rank the relevance of partitions found at different time-scales. This method is based on random walkers coevolving with the network and as such constitutes a…
We study the question for which commutative ring spectra $A$ the tensor of a simplicial set $X$ with $A$, $X \otimes A$, is a stable invariant in the sense that it depends only on the homotopy type of $\Sigma X$. We prove several structural…
The randomization of a complete first order theory $T$ is the complete continuous theory $T^R$ with two sorts, a sort for random elements of models of $T$, and a sort for events in an underlying probability space. We study various notions…
