Suppose $\alpha$ is a rotationally symmetric norm on $L^{\infty}\left(\mathbb{T}\right) $ and $\beta$ is a "nice" norm on $L^{\infty}\left(\Omega,\mu \right) $ where $\mu$ is a $\sigma$-finite measure on $\Omega$. We prove a version of…
It is shown that if a probability measure $\nu$ is supported on a closed subset of $(0,\infty)$, that is, its support is bounded away from zero, then the free multiplicative convolution of $\nu$ and the semicircle law is absolutely…
We consider the free additive convolution of two probability measures $\mu$ and $\nu$ on the real line and show that $\mu\boxplus\nu$ is supported on a single interval if $\mu$ and $\nu$ each has single interval support. Moreover, the…
Let $\nu_\lambda^p$ be the distribution of the random series $\sum_{n=1}^\infty i_n \lambda^n$, where $i_n$ is a sequence of i.i.d. random variables taking the values 0,1 with probabilities $p,1-p$. These measures are the well-known…
In the paper we study characterizations of probability measures in free probability. By constancy of regressions for random variable $\V(\I-\U)\V$ given by $\V\U\V$, where $\U$ and $\V$ are free, we characterize free Poisson and free…
In finite mixtures of location-scale distributions, if there is no constraint or penalty on the parameters, then the maximum likelihood estimator does not exist because the likelihood is unbounded. To avoid this problem, we consider a…
In the setting of abstract Markov maps, we prove results concerning the convergence of renormalized Birkhoff sums to normal laws or stable laws. They apply to one-dimensional maps with a neutral fixed point at 0 of the form…
A result of Arcones implies that if a measure-preserving linear operator $S$ on an abstract Wiener space $(X,H,\mu)$ is strongly mixing, then the set of limit points of the random sequence $((2\log n)^{-1/2}S^n(x))_{n\in\mathbb N}$ equals…
The classic central limit theorem and $\alpha$-stable distributions play a key role in probability theory, and also in Boltzmann-Gibbs (BG) statistical mechanics. They both concern the paradigmatic case of probabilistic independence of the…
We present a class of self-similar solutions describing ultrahigh compression of a uniform-density target by spherically converging, stacked shock waves. Extending the classical Guderley model, we derive a scaling law for the final density…
We carry out a comprehensive linear stability analysis of active Brownian particle systems around a constant homogeneous state. These scalar models, being important prototypes for the continuous description of active matter, are…
We investigate ergodic-theoretical quantities and large deviation properties of one-dimensional intermittent maps, that have not only an indifferent fixed point but also a singular structure such that the uniform measure is invariant under…
This work presents a study of perturbations of symmetric Boolean functions. In particular, it establishes a connection between exponential sums of these perturbations and Diophantine equations of the form $$ \sum_{l=0}^n \binom{n}{l}…
Fix a base B and let zeta have the standard exponential distribution; the distribution of digits of zeta base B is known to be very close to Benford's Law. If there exists a C such that the distribution of digits of C times the elements of…
Consider the ensembles of real symmetric Toeplitz matrices and real symmetric Hankel matrices whose entries are i.i.d. random variables chosen from a fixed probability distribution p of mean 0, variance 1, and finite higher moments.…
Consider generalized adapted stochastic integrals with respect to independently scattered random measures with second moments. We use a decoupling technique, known as the "principle of conditioning", to study their stable convergence…
A probability distribution over the Boolean cube is monotone if flipping the value of a coordinate from zero to one can only increase the probability of an element. Given samples of an unknown monotone distribution over the Boolean cube, we…
The aim of this paper is to make a systematical study on the stability of polynomials in combinatorics. Applying the characterizations of Borcea and Br\"and\'en concerning linear operators preserving stability, we present criteria for real…
We improve both upper and lower bounds for the distribution-free testing of monotone conjunctions. Given oracle access to an unknown Boolean function $f:\{0,1\}^n \rightarrow \{0,1\}$ and sampling oracle access to an unknown distribution…
In this paper, we study the partial bi-free $S$-transform of a pair $(a,b)$ of random variables, and the $S$-transform of the $2\times 2$ matrix-valued random variable $\left(\begin{matrix}a&0\\0&b\end{matrix}\right)$ associated with…
