The fuzzy modality `probably` is interpreted over probabilistic type spaces by taking expected truth values. The arising probabilistic fuzzy description logic is invariant under probabilistic bisimilarity; more informatively, it is…

We construct examples of a random walk with pairwise-independent steps which is almost-surely bounded, and for any $m$ and $k$ a random walk with $k$-wise independent steps which has no stationary distribution modulo $m$.

We present a compact matrix formulation of the modularity, a commonly used quality measure for the community division in a network. Using this formulation we calculate the density of modularities, a statistical measure of the probability of…

Sums of of 1-dependent integer-valued random variables are approximated by compound Poisson, negative binomial and Binomial distributions and signed compound Poisson measures. Estimates are obtained for total variation and local metrics.…

Recently, Bruinier and Ono classified cusp forms $f(z) := \sum_{n=0}^{\infty} a_f(n)q ^n \in S_{\lambda+1/2}(\Gamma_0(N),\chi)\cap \mathbb{Z}[[q]]$ that does not satisfy a certain distribution property for modulo odd primes $p$. In this…

It is known that large deviations of sums of subexponential random variables are most likely realised by deviations of a single random variable. In this article we give a detailed picture of how subexponential random variables are…

We characterize the exponential distribution in terms of the regression of a record value with non-adjacent record values as covariates. We also study characterizations based on the regression of linear combinations of record values.

We compute analytically the joint probability density of eigenvalues and the level spacing statistics for an ensemble of random matrices with interesting features. It is invariant under the standard symmetry groups (orthogonal and unitary)…

Number theorists have studied extensively the connections between the distribution of zeros of the Riemann $\zeta$-function, and of some generalizations, with the statistics of the eigenvalues of large random matrices. It is interesting to…

In this paper, we provide formulas for partial sums of weighted averages over regular integers modulo $n$ of the $\gcd$-sum function with any arithmetic function. Many interesting applications of the results are also given.

We prove the density of the sets of the form ${{\lambda}_1^m {\mu}_1^n {\xi}_1 +...+{\lambda}_k^m {\mu}_k^n {\xi}_k : m,n \in \mathbb N}$ modulo one, where $\lambda_i$ and $\mu_i$ are multiplicatively independent algebraic numbers…

Categorical data are often observed as counts resulting from a fixed number of trials in which each trial consists of making one selection from a prespecified set of categories. The multinomial distribution serves as a standard model for…

We are interested in ordering the elements of a subset A of the non-zero integers modulo n in such a way that all the partial sums are distinct. We conjecture that this can always be done and we prove various partial results about this…

Mathematical models of motility are often based on random-walk descriptions of discrete individuals that can move according to certain rules. It is usually the case that large masses concentrated in small regions of space have a great…

We prove that if two additive functions (from a certain class) take large values with roughly the same probability then they must be identical. The Kac-Kubilius model suggests that the distribution of values of a given additive function can…

Observed clusters should be modelled by considering the distribution function to be a random variable that quantifies the degree of excitation of the system's normal modes. A system of canonical coordinates for the space of DFs is…
