Let $X_1,X_2,...$ be independent identically distributed random variables with values in $\C$. Denote by $\mu$ the probability distribution of $X_1$. Consider a random polynomial $P_n(z)=(z-X_1)...(z-X_n)$. We prove a conjecture of Pemantle…

It is shown that, given a representation of a quiver over a finite field, one can check in polynomial time whether it is absolutely indecomposable.

Consider a totally irregular measure $\mu$ in $\mathbb{R}^{n+1}$, that is, the upper density $\limsup_{r\to0}\frac{\mu(B(x,r))}{(2r)^n}$ is positive $\mu$-a.e.\ in $\mathbb{R}^{n+1}$, and the lower density…

Let $(M,g)$ be a compact, connected Riemannian manifold of dimension $n\ge 2$, and let $\{e_j\}_{j=0}^\infty$ be an orthonormal basis of Laplace eigenfunctions $-\Delta_g e_j=\lambda_j^2 e_j$. Given a finite Borel measure $\mu$ on $M$,…

Final representation of all those measures $\mu$ for which algebraic polynomials are dense in $L_p(R, d\mu)$ is found. The weighted analogue of the Weierstrass polynomial approximation theorem and a new version of the M. Krein's theorem…

We introduce a class of central symmetric infinitely divisible probability measures on compact Lie groups by lifting the characteristic exponent from the real line via the Casimir operator. The class includes Gauss, Laplace and stable-type…

We show how localization and smoothing techniques can be used to establish universality in the bulk of the spectrum for a fixed positive measure mu on [-1,1]. Assume that mu is a regular measure, and is absolutely continuous in an open…

The equivalence of the characteristic function approach and the probabilistic approach to monotone and boolean convolutions is proven for non-compactly supported probability measures. A probabilistically motivated definition of the…

We consider probability measures on the real line or unit circle with Jacobi or Verblunsky coefficients satisfying an $\ell^p$ condition and a generalized bounded variation condition. This latter condition requires that a sequence can be…

Let $M$ be a compact 1-manifold. Given a continuous function $g:M\to \mathbb R_+$ we consider the following ordinary differential equation: $\|\dot{f}(t)\|=g(t)$, where $f:M\to \mathbb R^2$. We construct a probability measure on the space…

Let $\{f_i\}_{i=1}^N$ be a set of equi-contractive similitudes on $\mathbb{R}^1$ satisfying the finite-type condition. We study the asymptotic quantization error for self-similar measures $\mu$ associated with $\{f_i\}_{i=1}^N$ and a…

We propose a "decomposition method" to prove non-asymptotic bound for the convergence of empirical measures in various dual norms. The main point is to show that if one measures convergence in duality with sufficiently regular observables,…

It is well known that the space of invariant probability measures for transitive sub-shifts of finite type is a Poulsen simplex. In this article we prove that in the non-compact setting, for a large family of transitive countable Markov…

The purpose of this paper is to find a new way to prove the $n!$ conjecture for particular partitions. The idea is to construct a monomial and explicit basis for the space $M_{\mu}$. We succeed completely for hook-shaped partitions, i.e.,…

It is shown that the free multiplicative convolution of two nondegenerate probability measures on the unit circle has no continuous singular part relative to arclength measure. Analogous results have long been known for free additive…

A probability distribution $\mu$ on $\mathbb{R}^d$ is quasi-infinitely divisible if its characteristic function has the representation $\widehat{\mu} = \widehat{\mu_1}/\widehat{\mu_2}$ with infinitely divisible distributions $\mu_1$ and…

Both completely positive and completely copositive maps stay decomposable under tensor powers, i.e under tensoring the linear map with itself. But are there other examples of maps with this property? We show that this is not the case: Any…
