A detailed analysis of the remainder obtained by truncating the Euler series up to the $n$th-order term is presented. In particular, by using an approach recently proposed by Weniger, asymptotic expansions of the remainder, both in inverse…

Let $U$ be a matrix chosen randomly, with respect to Haar measure, from the unitary group $U(d).$ We express the moments of the trace of any submatrix of $U$ as a sum over partitions whose terms count certain standard and semistandard Young…
Linear statistics of eigenvalues in many familiar classes of random matrices are known to obey gaussian central limit theorems. The proofs of such results are usually rather difficult, involving hard computations specific to the model in…

For any integer $m<n$, where $m$ can depend on $n$, we study the rate of convergence of $\frac{1}{\sqrt{m}}\mathrm{Tr} \mathbf{U}^m$ to its limiting Gaussian as $n\to\infty$ for orthogonal, unitary and symplectic Haar distributed random…
We suggest approximating the distribution of the sum of independent and identically distributed random variables with a Pareto-like tail by combining extreme value approximations for the largest summands with a normal approximation for the…
One of the major themes of random matrix theory is that many asymptotic properties of traditionally studied distributions of random matrices are universal. We probe the edges of universality by studying the spectral properties of random…
Providing theoretical guarantees for parameter estimation in exponential random graph models is a largely open problem. While maximum likelihood estimation has theoretical guarantees in principle, verifying the assumptions for these…
The numerical computation of the exponentiation of a real matrix has been intensively studied. The main objective of a good numerical method is to deal with round-off errors and computational cost. The situation is more complicated when…

Approximating the solution of the nonlinear filtering problem with Gaussian mixtures has been a very popular method since the 1970s. However, the vast majority of such approximations are introduced in an ad-hoc manner without theoretical…

In this paper we present an algorithm to fit data via exponentials when the error is measured using the max-norm. We prove the necesssary results to show that the algorithm will converge to the best approximation no matter the dataset.
