Consider a class of decomposable combinatorial structures, using different types of atoms $\Atoms = \{\At_1,\ldots ,\At_{|{\Atoms}|}\}$. We address the random generation of such structures with respect to a size $n$ and a targeted…
We say that a linear space is harmonious if it is resolvable and admits an automorphism group acting sharply transitively on the points and transitively on the parallel classes. Generalizing old results by the first author et al. we present…
The present paper focuses on the problem of sampling from a given target distribution $\pi$ defined on some general state space. To this end, we introduce a novel class of non-reversible Markov chains, each chain being defined on an…
We consider random permutations derived by sampling from stick-breaking partitions of the unit interval. The cycle structure of such a permutation can be associated with the path of a decreasing Markov chain on $n$ integers. Under certain…
We consider a class of piecewise-deterministic Markov processes where the state evolves according to a linear dynamical system. This continuous time evolution is interspersed by discrete events that occur at random times and change (reset)…
When two Markov operators commute, it suggests that we can couple two copies of one of the corresponding processes. We explicitly construct a number of couplings of this type for a commuting family of Markov processes on the set of…
Consider a weighted branching process generated by the lengths of intervals obtained by stick-breaking of unit length (a.k.a. the residual allocation model) and associate with each weight a `box'. Given the weights `balls' are thrown…
The dynamics in games involving multiple players, who adaptively learn from their past experience, is not yet well understood. We analyzed a class of stochastic games with Markov strategies in which players choose their actions…
A $k$-regular partition into distinct parts is a partition into distinct parts with no part divisible by $k$. In this paper, we provide a general method to establish the unimodality of $k$-regular partition into distinct parts where the…
We consider the mass-dependent aggregation process (k+1)X -> X, given a fixed number of unit mass particles in the initial state. One cluster is chosen proportional to its mass and is merged into one either with k-neighbors in one…
Divisible dynamical maps play an important role in characterizing Markovianity on the level of quantum evolution. Divisible maps provide important generalization of Markovian semigroups. Usually one analyzes either completely positive or…
It is well known from results of Sina\u{\i} and Bowen that a hyperbolic toral automorphism admits a Markov partition. Our aim is to generalize this concept to the nonstationary case, i.e., we associate Markov partitions to nonstationary…
We consider the equal sum partition problem, motivated by distance magic graph labeling: Given $n,k \in \N$ such that $k\, | \sum_{i=1}^ni$ and a partition $p_1+\cdots+p_k=n$, when is it possible to find a partition of the set…
We consider the problem of learning an unknown partition of an $n$ element universe using rank queries. Such queries take as input a subset of the universe and return the number of parts of the partition it intersects. We give a simple…
Graph partitioning problems emerge in a wide variety of complex systems, ranging from biology to finance, but can be rigorously analyzed and solved only for a few graph ensembles. Here, an ensemble of equitable graphs, i.e. random graphs…
Decomposable graphs are known for their tedious and complicated Markov update steps. Instead of modelling them directly, this work introduces a class of tree-dependent bipartite graphs that span the projective space of decomposable graphs.…
We study pseudorandomness properties of permutations on $\{0,1\}^n$ computed by random circuits made from reversible $3$-bit gates (permutations on $\{0,1\}^3$). Our main result is that a random circuit of depth $n \cdot \tilde{O}(k^2)$,…
The distribution of age-ordered frequencies arising from an exchangeable Gibbs partition is studied in relation with the distribution of the positions at which new mutations appear in a sample.
In this work we characterize shift spaces over infinite countable alphabets that can be endowed with an inverse semigroup operation. We give sufficient conditions under which zero-dimensional inverse semigroups can be recoded as shift…
Recently, Andrews introduced separable integer partition classes and studied some well-known theorems. In this article, we will consider the types of partitions with restrictions on consecutive parts. We will show that such partitions are…
