We show that $h_\infty(X+Y)\leq h_\infty(Z+W)$, where $X, Y$ are independent log-concave random variables, and $Z, W$ are exponential random variables having the same respective $\infty$-R\'enyi entropies. Analogs for integer-valued…

Let $G$ be a locally compact group. A random closed subgroup with conjugation-invariant law is called an {\em invariant random subgroup} or IRS for short. We show that each nonabelian free group has a large "zoo" of IRS's. This contrasts…

In this paper we investigate invertibility of graphs with a unique perfect matching, i.e. graphs having a unique 1-factor. We recall the new notion of the so-called negatively invertible graphs investigated by the authors in the recent…

Statistical independence is a notion ubiquitous in various fields such as in statistics, probability, number theory and physics. We establish the stability of independence for any pair of random variables by their corresponding Brockwell…

Inverse statistics in economics is considered. We argue that the natural candidate for such statistics is the investment horizons distribution. This distribution of waiting times needed to achieve a predefined level of return is obtained…

Let $(X, \mathbf{Z})$ be a continuous random vector in $\mathbb{R} \times \mathbb{R}^d$, $d \ge 1$. In this paper, we define the notion of a nonparametric residual of $X$ on $\mathbf{Z}$ that is always independent of the predictor…

The notion of the weighted core inverse in a ring with involution was introduced, recently [Mosic et al. Comm. Algebra, 2018; 46(6); 2332-2345]. In this paper, we explore new representation and characterization of the weighted core inverse…

In this work we analyze the concept of swap-invariance, which is a weaker variant of exchangeability. A random vector $\xi$ in $\mathbb{R}^n$ is called swap-invariant if $\,{\mathbf E}\,\big| \!\sum_j u_j \xi_j \big|\,$ is invariant under…

This paper proves a reciprocity formula for modular inverses for non-zero integers and demonstrates some applications of the reciprocity formula in calculating or verifying some modular inverses of specific forms, including the modular…

In this note we prove that a finite family $\{X_1,\dots,X_d\}$ of real r.v.'s that is exchangeable and such that $(X_1,\dots,X_d)$ is invariant with respect to a subgroup of $SO(d)$ acting irreducibly, is actually invariant with respect to…

We consider a decision maker who is unaware of objects to be sampled and thus cannot form beliefs about the occurrence of particular objects. Ex ante she can form beliefs about the occurrence of novelty and the frequencies of yet to be…

A regular ordered semigroup $S$ is called right inverse if every principal left ideal of $S$ is generated by an $\mathcal{R}$-unique ordered idempotent. Here we explore the theory of right inverse ordered semigroups. We show that a regular…

In this note we prove a selection of commutativity theorems for various classes of semigroups. For instance, if in a separative or completely regular semigroup $S$ we have $x^p y^p = y^p x^p$ and $x^q y^q = y^q x^q$ for all $x,y\in S$ where…

Reciprocal transformations mix the role of the dependent and independent variables of (nonlinear partial) differential equations to achieve simpler versions or even linearized versions of them. These transformations help in the…

In this paper we study the inverse of so-called unfair permutations, and explore various properties of them. Our investigation begins with comparing this class of permutations with uniformly random permutations, and showing that they behave…

Time reversal invariance can be summarized as follows: no difference can be measured if a sequence of events is run forward or backward in time. Because price time series are dominated by a randomness that hides possible structures and…

If $R$ and $M$ are Hilbert modules (in the sense of R. G. Douglas and V. I. Paulsen), we study the relationship between invertible module maps $X:R\to{M}$ and $X_{z}:R/R_{z}\to{M/M_{z}}$. In particular, for quasi-free Hilbert modules $R$…

A skew Laurent polynomial ring R[x^{\pm 1};\alpha] is reversible if it has a reversing automorphism, that is, an automorphism of period two that transposes x and x^{-1} and restricts to an automorphism of R. We study invariants for…

In this note, convergence of random variables will be revisited. We will give the answers to 5 questions among the 6 open questions introduced in (Convergence rates in the law of large numbers and new kinds of convergence of random…

Consider a coin tossing experiment which consists of tossing one of two coins at a time, according to a renewal process. The first coin is fair and the second has probability $1/2 + \theta$, $\theta \in [-1/2,1/2]$, $\theta$ unknown but…
