Let $X=\{x_i:i\in\mathbb{Z}\}$, $\dots<x_{i-1}<x_i<x_{i+1}<\dots$, be a sampling set which is separated by a constant $\gamma>0$. Under certain conditions on $\phi$, it is proved that if there exists a positive integer $\nu$ such that…

We consider a random variable X satisfying almost-sure conditions involving G:=<DX,-DL^{-1}X> where DX is X's Malliavin derivative and L^{-1} is the inverse Ornstein-Uhlenbeck operator. A lower- (resp. upper-) bound condition on G is proved…

For each positive number $\alpha$ we study the analog $\nu_alpha$ in free probability of the classical Gamma distribution with parameter $\alpha$. We prove that $\nu_\alpha$ is absolutely continuous and establish the main properties of the…

We consider here the recently proposed closed form formula in terms of the Meijer G-functions for the probability density functions $g_\alpha(x)$ of one-sided L\'evy stable distributions with rational index $\alpha=l/k$, with $0<\alpha<1$.…

The aim of this paper is to establish the uniform convergence of the densities of a sequence of random variables, which are functionals of an underlying Gaussian process, to a normal density. Precise estimates for the uniform distance are…

Let F be a class of functions with the uniqueness property: if a function f in F vanishes on a set of positive measure, then f is the zero function. In many instances, we would like to have a quantitative version of this property, e.g. a…

We consider a class of probability measures $\mu_{s,r}^{\alpha}$ which have explicit Cauchy-Stieltjes transforms. This class includes a symmetric beta distribution, a free Poisson law and some beta distributions as special cases. Also, we…

Let $X_{m} = G_{1}\ldots G_{m}$ denote the product of $m$ independent random matrices of size $N \times N$, with each matrix in the product consisting of independent standard Gaussian variables. Denoting by $N_{\mathbb{R}}(m)$ the total…

We show that if a real $x$ is strongly Hausdorff $h$-random, where $h$ is a dimension function corresponding to a convex order, then it is also random for a continuous probability measure $\mu$ such that the $\mu$-measure of the basic open…

Consider the multivariate Stein equation $\Delta f - x\cdot \nabla f = h(x) - E h(Z)$, where $Z$ is a standard $d$-dimensional Gaussian random vector, and let $f\_h$ be the solution given by Barbour's generator approach. We prove that, when…

An independence model for discrete random variables is a Segre-Veronese variety in a probability simplex. Any metric on the set of joint states of the random variables induces a Wasserstein metric on the probability simplex. The unit ball…

In the classical $\beta$-ensembles of random matrix theory, setting $\beta = 2 \alpha/N$ and taking the $N \to \infty$ limit gives a statistical state depending on $\alpha$. Using the loop equations for the classical $\beta$-ensembles, we…

For a sample of absolutely bounded i.i.d. random variables with a continuous density the cumulative distribution function of the sample variance is represented by a univariate integral over a Fourier series. If the density is a polynomial…

In this paper we consider functions of the type $$f(x) = \sum_{n=0}^\infty a_n g(b_nx+\theta_n),$$ where $(a_n)$ are independent random variables uniformly distributed on $(-a^n, a^n)$ for some $0<a<1$, $b_{n+1}/b_n \geq b >1$, $a^2b> 1$…

We give a distribution-dependent concentration inequality for functions of independent variables. The result extends Bernstein's inequality from sums to more general functions, whose variation in any argument does not depend too much on the…

We calculate exactly the quantum mechanical, temporal Wigner quasiprobability density for a single-mode, degenerate parametric amplifier for a system in the Gaussian state, viz., a displaced-squeezed thermal state. The Wigner function…

S. Artstein, K. Ball, F. Barthe, and A. Naor have shown that if (X_j) are i.i.d. random variables, then the entropy of n^{-1/2}(X_1+....+X_n) increases as n increases. The free analogue was recently proven by D. Shlyakhtenko. That is, if…

For the iterations of $x\mapsto |x-\theta|$ random functions with Lipschitz number one, we represent the dynamics as a Markov chain and prove its convergence under mild conditions. We also demonstrate that the Wasserstein metric of any two…

Let $\{X_j\}$ be independent, identically distributed random variables. It is well known that the functional CUSUM statistic and its randomly permuted version both converge weakly to a Brownian bridge if second moments exist. Surprisingly,…
