Let $\mathcal{P}$ be the set of the primes. We consider a class of random multiplicative functions $f$ supported on the squarefree integers, such that $\{f(p)\}_{p\in\mathcal{P}}$ form a sequence of $\pm1$ valued independent random…

We consider sequences of random variables whose probability generating functions are polynomials all of whose roots lie on the unit circle. The distribution of such random variables has only been sporadically studied in the literature. We…

We present a limit theorem describing the behavior of a probabilistic model for square-free numbers. The limiting distribution has a density that comes from the Dickman-De Bruijn function and is constant on the interval $[0,1]$. We also…

Let $X$ be a random variable with distribution function $F,$ and $X_{1},X_{2},...,X_{n}$ are independent copies of $X.$ Consider the order statistics $X_{i:n},$ $i=1,2,...,n$ and denote $F_{i:n}(x)=P\{X_{i:n}\leq x\}.$ Using majorization…

For $p \in (0,1)$, sample a binary sequence from the infinite product measure of Bernoulli$(p)$ distributions. It is known that for $p=1/2$, almost every binary sequence is Poisson generic in the sense of Peres and Weiss, a property that…

The usual random walk on a group (homogeneous both in time and in space) is determined by a probability measure on the group. In a random walk with random transition probabilities this single measure is replaced with a stationary sequence…

We prove limit theorems for the number of fixed points occurring in a random pattern-avoiding permutation distributed according to a one-parameter family of biased distributions. The bias parameter exponentially tilts the distribution…

We derive the characteristic function of stochastic functionals of a random walk whose position is reset to the origin at random times drawn from a general probability distribution. We analyze the long-time behavior and obtain the temporal…

We consider the random directed graph $\vec{G}(n,p)$ with vertex set $\{1,2,\ldots,n\}$ in which each of the $n(n-1)$ possible directed edges is present independently with probability $p$. We are interested in the strongly connected…

We introduce a simply stated conjecture regarding the maximum mutual information a Boolean function can reveal about noisy inputs. Specifically, let $X^n$ be i.i.d. Bernoulli(1/2), and let $Y^n$ be the result of passing $X^n$ through a…

Certain frustrated systems, including spin ice and dimer models, exhibit a Coulomb phase at low temperatures, with power-law correlations and fractionalized monopole excitations. Transitions out of this phase, at which the effective gauge…

We consider the limit behavior of a one-dimensional random walk with unit jumps whose transition probabilities are modified every time the walk hits zero. The invariance principle is proved in the scheme of series where the size of…

We study the long-time behavior of decoupled continuous-time random walks characterized by superheavy-tailed distributions of waiting times and symmetric heavy-tailed distributions of jump lengths. Our main quantity of interest is the…

We investigate the rate of convergence toward the Boolean extreme value distribution, which is the universal limiting law for the normalized spectral maximum of Boolean independent and identically distributed positive operators, under the…

In this paper we consider a variant of the well-known Achlioptas process for graphs adapted to monotone Boolean functions. Fix a number of choices $r\in \mathbb N$ and a sequence of increasing functions $(f_n)_{n\ge 1}$ such that, for every…

We study the elephant random walk in arbitrary dimension $d\geq 1$. Our main focus is the limiting random variable appearing in the superdiffusive regime. Building on a link between the elephant random walk and P\'olya-type urn models, we…

We use p-values to identify the threshold level at which a regression function takes off from its baseline value, a problem motivated by applications in toxicological and pharmacological dose-response studies and environmental statistics.…

Linear functions of many independent random variables lead to classical noises (white, Poisson, and their combinations) in the scaling limit. Some singular stochastic flows and some models of oriented percolation involve very nonlinear…

A Boolean function $f:\{0,1\}^d \mapsto \{0,1\}$ is unate if, along each coordinate, the function is either nondecreasing or nonincreasing. In this note, we prove that any nonadaptive, one-sided error unateness tester must make…

We consider a variant of a classical coverage process, the boolean model in $\mathbb{R}^d$. Previous efforts have focused on convergence of the unoccupied region containing the origin to a well studied limit $C$. We study the intersection…
