Let $m\in\mathbb{N}$ and $\textbf{X}=(X,\mathcal{X},\mu,(T_{\alpha})_{\alpha\in\mathbb{R}^{m}})$ be a measure preserving system with an $\mathbb{R}^{m}$-action. We say that a Borel measure $\nu$ on $\mathbb{R}^{m}$ is weakly equidistributed…

We consider random vectors $X$ that satisfy the equation in law $X=AX+B$, where $A$ is a given random diagonal matrix and $B$ a given random vector, both independent of $X$. It is well known by the works of Kesten and Goldie that the…

Estimates of densities of convolution semigroups of probability measures are given under specific assumptions on the corresponding L\'evy measure and the L\'evy--Khinchin exponent. The assumptions are satisfied, e.g., by tempered stable…

Many important statistical models fall outside classical moment-based methods due to the non-existence of moments or moment generating functions. We propose a generalised probabilistic framework in which densities are replaced by pairs…

In the probability theory limit distributions (or probability measures) are often characterized by some convolution equations (factorization properties) rather than by Fourier transforms (the characteristic functionals). In fact, usually…

This paper gives necessary and sufficient conditions for the convergence of the solution of a weakly damped second order linear differential equation that is subjected to outside forcing, for which solutions of the unforced equation are…

We develop a unified and easy to use framework to study robust fully discrete numerical methods for nonlinear degenerate diffusion equations $$ \partial_t u-\mathfrak{L}^{\sigma,\mu}[\varphi(u)]=f \quad\quad\text{in}\quad\quad…

The proofs of K. Oka's Coherence Theorems are based on Weierstrass' Preparation (division) Theorem. Here we formulate and prove a Weak Coherence Theorem without using Weierstrass' Preparation Theorem, but only with power series expansions:…

We establish a consistency result by comparing two independent notions of generalised solutions to a large class of linear hyperbolic first order PDE systems with constant coefficients, showing that they eventually coincide. The first is…

The authors of a recent paper [Phys. Rev. Lett. 113, 120404 (2014)] suggest that "weak values are not inherently quantum but rather a purely statistical feature of pre- and postselection with disturbance". We argue that this claim is…

Continuity is one of the most central notions in mathematics, physics, and computer science. An interesting associated topic is decompositions of continuity, where continuity is shown to be equivalent to the combination of two or more weak…

We consider the Cauchy problem for the weakly dissipative wave equation $$ \bx v+\frac\mu{1+t}v_t=0, \qquad x\in\R^n,\quad t\ge 0, $$ parameterized by $\mu>0$, and prove a representation theorem for its solution using the theory of special…

This is an expository paper on Lyapunov stability of equilibria of autonomous Hamiltonian systems. Our aim is to clarify the concept of weak instability, namely instability without non-constant motions which have the equilibrium as limit…

Subordinating a multivariate L\'evy process, the subordinate, with a univariate subordinator gives rise to a pathwise construction of a new L\'evy process, provided the subordinator and the subordinate are independent processes. The…

In this paper, we develop a universal, conceptually simple and systematic method to prove well-posedness to Cauchy problems for weak solutions of parabolic equations with non-smooth, time-dependent, elliptic part having a variational…

The notion of a weakly Mal'tsev category, as it was introduced in 2008 by the third author, is a generalization of the classical notion of a Mal'tsev category. It is well-known that a variety of universal algebras is a Mal'tsev category if…

We prove several Tauberian theorems for regularizing transforms of vector-valued distributions. The regularizing transform of $f$ is given by the integral transform $M^{f}_{\varphi}(x,y)=(f\ast\varphi_{y})(x),$…

Let $B(n,p)$ denote a binomial random variable with parameters $n$ and $p$. Chv\'{a}tal's theorem says that for any fixed $n\geq 2$, as $m$ ranges over $\{0,\ldots,n\}$, the probability $q_m:=P(B(n,m/n)\leq m)$ is the smallest when $m$ is…

A random variable X is strictly stable if a sum of independent copies of X has the same distribution as X up to scaling, and is stable (in the broad sense) if the sum has the same distribution as X up to both scaling and shifting. Steutel…

This monograph aims at presenting the core weak convergence theory for sequences of random vectors with values in $\mathbb{R}^k$. In some places, a more general formulation in metric spaces is provided. It lays out the necessary foundation…
