We compute, for a compact set $K\subset\mathbb R^d$, the value of the upper and of the lower $L^q$-dimension of a typical probability measure with support contained in $K$, for any $q\in\mathbb R$. Different definitions of the "dimension"…
In this paper the general Krall-type Askey-Wilson polynomials are introduced. These polynomials are obtained from the Askey-Wilson polynomials via the addition of two mass points to the weight function of them at the points $\pm1$. Several…
In this paper we consider the space of those probability distributions which maximize the $q$-R\'enyi entropy. These distributions have the same parameter space for every $q$, and in the $q=1$ case these are the normal distributions. Some…
We study a coarsening process of one-dimensional cell complexes. We show that if cell boundaries move with velocities proportional to the difference in size of neighboring cells, then the average cell size grows at a prescribed exponential…
We introduce a generalization of the Stirling numbers via symmetric functions involving two weight functions. The resulting extension unifies previously known Stirling-type sequences with known symmetric function forms, as well as other…
We consider the distribution of spacings between consecutive elements in subsets of Z/qZ where q is highly composite and the subsets are defined via the Chinese remainder theorem. We give a sufficient criterion for the spacing distribution…
We consider general Markov processes with absorption and provide criteria ensuring the exponential convergence in total variation of the distribution of the process conditioned not to be absorbed. The first one is based on two-sided…

We study the regularity of the law of a quadratic form $Q(X,X)$, evaluated in a sequence $X = (X_{i})$ of independent and identically distributed random variables, when $X_{1}$ can be expressed as a sufficiently smooth function of a…
We introduce a certain discrete probability distribution $P_{n,m,k,l;q}$ having non-negative integer parameters $n,m,k,l$ and quantum parameter $q$ which arises from a zonal spherical function of the Grassmannian over the finite field…
The aim of this paper is to study the mixture of the Riesz distribution on symmetric matrices with respect to the multivariate Poisson distribution. We show, in particular, that this distribution is related to the modified Bessel function…
We study a symmetric generalization $\mathfrak{p}^{(N)}_k(\eta, \alpha)$ of the binomial distribution recently introduced by Bergeron et al, where $\eta \in [0,1]$ denotes the win probability, and $\alpha$ is a positive parameter. This…
One of spectacular results in mathematical physics is the expression of Racah matrices for symmetric representations of the quantum group $SU_q(2)$ through the Askey-Wilson polynomials, associated with the $q$-hypergeometric functions…
We introduce a bilateral extension of the continuous $q$-ultraspherical polynomials which we call bilateral $q$-ultraspherical functions. These functions are given as specific bilateral basic hypergeometric ${}_2\psi_2$ series, they are…
By the symmetric properties of Drichlet's type multiple q-l-function, we establish various identities concerning the generalized higher-order q-Euler polynomials. Furthermore, we give some interesting relationship between the power sums and…
We characterize the measures on R which have both their support and spectrum uniformly discrete. A similar result is obtained in R^n for positive measures.
Using the notion of Mahonian statistic on acyclic posets, we introduce a $q$-analogue of the $h$-polynomial of a simple generalized permutohedron. We focus primarily on the case of nestohedra and on explicit computations for many…
Let $M$ be a positive integer and $q\in (1, M+1]$. A $q$-expansion of a real number $x$ is a sequence $(c_i)=c_1c_2\cdots$ with $c_i\in \{0,1,\ldots, M\}$ such that $x=\sum_{i=1}^{\infty}c_iq^{-i}$. In this paper we study the set…
This paper studies new Lancaster characterizations of bivariate multivariate Poisson, negative binomial and normal distributions which have diagonal expansions in multivariate orthogonal polynomials. The characterizations extend classical…
The Poisson distribution of order $k$ is a special case of a compound Poisson distribution. Its mean and variance are known, but results for its median and mode are difficult to obtain, although a few cases have been solved and upper/lower…
