The Dirichlet process mixture model and more general mixtures based on discrete random probability measures have been shown to be flexible and accurate models for density estimation and clustering. The goal of this paper is to illustrate…
We extend results on analytic complex measures on the complex unit circle to a non-commutative multivariate setting. Identifying continuous linear functionals on a certain self-adjoint subspace of the Cuntz--Toeplitz $C^*-$algebra, the free…
We show that for any irrational number $\a$ and a sequence of integers $\{m_l\}_{l\in \N}$ such that $\displaystyle{\lim_{l\to \infty} \norm{m_l \a} = 0}$, there exists a continuous measure $\mu$ on the circle such that…
Item response theory (IRT) models typically rely on a normality assumption for subject-specific latent traits, which is often unrealistic in practice. Semiparametric extensions based on Dirichlet process mixtures offer a more flexible…
We are interested in the asymptotic behaviour of the first return time of the orbits of a dynamical system into a small neighbourhood of their starting points. We study this quantity in the context of dynamical systems preserving an…
How much dependence is there in the prime factorization of a random integer distributed uniformly from 1 to n? How much dependence is there in the decomposition into cycles of a random permutation of n points? What is the relation between…
The aim of this paper is to study measure-theoretical rigidity and partial rigidity for classes of Cantor dynamical systems including Toeplitz systems and enumeration systems. We use Bratteli diagrams to control invariant measures that are…
Measurement-induced phase transitions (MIPT), characterizing abrupt changes in entanglement properties in quantum many-body systems subjected to unitary evolution with interspersed projective measurements, have garnered increasing interest.…
The BK inequality (\cite{BK85}) says that,for product measures on $\{0,1\}^n$, the probability that two increasing events $A$ and $B$ `occur disjointly' is at most the product of the two individual probabilities. The conjecture in…
This paper is devoted to studying the multiple recurrent property of topologically mildly mixing systems along generalized polynomials. We show that if a minimal system is topologically mildly mixing, then it is mild mixing of higher orders…
We prove that for each multiplicative subgroup $A$ of finite index in $\mathbb{Q}^+$, the set of integers $a$ with $a, a+1 \in A$ is an IP-set. This generalizes a theorem of Hildebrand concerning completely multiplicative functions taking…
Ranked voting systems, such as instant-runoff voting (IRV) and single transferable vote (STV), are used in many places around the world. They are more complex than plurality and scoring rules, presenting a challenge for auditing their…
The Schl\"omilch integral, a generalization of the Dirichlet integral on the simplex, and related probability distributions are reviewed. A distribution that unifies several generalizations of the Dirichlet distribution is presented, with…
Given a dynamical system $(X,T)$ and a family $\mathsf{I}\subseteq \mathcal{P}(\omega)$ of "small" sets of nonnegative integers, a point $x \in X$ is said to be $\mathsf{I}$-strong universal if for each $y \in X$ there exists a subsequence…
For each prime $p$, a Vladimirov operator with a positive exponent specifies a $p$-adic diffusion equation and a measure on the Skorokhod space of $p$-adic paths. The product, $P$, of these measures with fixed exponent is a probability…
In this paper, we study discrete approximations of semi-Dirichlet forms obtained by adding non-symmetric drift terms, expressed in terms of mutual energy measures, to resistance forms whose associated resistance metric spaces are compact.…
Let $\psi:\mathbb R_+\to\mathbb R_+$ be a non-increasing function. A real number $x$ is said to be $\psi$-Dirichlet improvable if it admits an improvement to Dirichlet's theorem in the following sense: the system $$|qx-p|< \, \psi(t) \ \…
We consider a general class of spin systems with potentially unbounded real-valued spins, defined via a single-site potential with super-Gaussian tails on general graphs, allowing for both short- and long-range interactions. This class…
We develop dependent hierarchical normalized random measures and apply them to dynamic topic modeling. The dependency arises via superposition, subsampling and point transition on the underlying Poisson processes of these measures. The…
We study contraction conditions for an iterated function system of continuous maps on a metric space which are chosen randomly, identically and independently. We investigate metric changes, preserving the topological structure of the space,…
