We prove that the relation $E_0(\rho, W^{-}) + E_0(\rho, W^{+}) \geq 2 E_0(\rho, W)$ holds for any binary input discrete memoryless channel $W$, and $\rho \geq 0$.
We present a random-matrix realization of a two-dimensional percolation model with the occupation probability $p$. We find that the behavior of the model is governed by the two first extreme eigenvalues. While the second extreme eigenvalue…
We discuss complete theory of point-like particles in fully polarized BECs describing difference in behaviour of electrically- and magnetically polarized BECs. Next we present generalization of this theory on finite size particles to…
The distribution of the polarization of the Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB) in the sky is determined by the hypothesis of random Gaussian distribution of the primordial density perturbations. This hypotheses is well motivated by the…

The behavior of extreme observations is well-understood for time series or spatial data, but little is known if the data generating process is a structural causal model (SCM). We study the behavior of extremes in this model class, both for…
This paper presents the Planck 2015 likelihoods, statistical descriptions of the 2-point correlations of CMB data, using the hybrid approach employed previously: pixel-based at $\ell<30$ and a Gaussian approximation to the distribution of…

The evolutions of polarization singularities, including bound states in the continuum (BICs) and circularly polarized states (C points), are usually realized by tuning the geometric parameters of photonic crystal slabs. Here, we use the…
The coming flood of CMB polarization experiments, spurred by the recent detection of CMB polarization by DASI and WMAP, will be confronted by many new analysis tasks specific to polarization. For the analysis of CMB polarization data sets,…
For an interpolation pair $(E_0,E_1)$ of Banach spaces with $E_1 \hookrightarrow E_0$ we use vectors $b_1,b_2,\ldots \in E_1$ that satisfy an extremal property with respect to the $J$- and $K$-functional to construct sub-spaces that are…
Polarization behaviour shows a transition in the pulsar population, where energetic sources with higher spin-down energy loss, $\dot{E} > 10^{34}$ erg~s$^{-1}$, often have fractional linear polarisation ($L/I$) close to 100\%, while below…
