Let $\mu$ be a probability measure of compact support on the set $\mathbb{P}_n$ of all positive definite matrices, let $t\in(0,1]$, and let $P_t(\mu)$ be the unique positive solution of $X=\int_{\mathbb{P}_n}X\sharp_t Z d\mu(Z)$. In this…

An action of a compact quantum group on a compact metric space $(X,d)$ is (D)-isometric if the distance function is preserved by a diagonal action on $X\times X$. We show that an isometric action in this sense has the following additional…

We investigate extensions of S. Solecki's theorem on closing off finite partial isometries of metric spaces \cite{solecki1} and obtain the following exact equivalence: any action of a discrete group $\Gamma$ by isometries of a metric space…

Let $(X, \cal B, \nu)$ be a probability space and let $\Gamma$ be a countable group of $\nu$-preserving invertible maps of $X$ into itself. To a probability measure $\mu$ on $\Gamma$ corresponds a random walk on $X$ with Markov operator $P$…

Let $G$ be a real Lie group, $\Lambda\subseteq G$ a lattice, and $X=G/\Lambda$. We fix a probability measure $\mu$ on $G$ and consider the left random walk induced on $X$. It is assumed that $\mu$ is aperiodic, has a finite first moment,…

A recent result of Frantzikinakis establishes sufficient conditions for joint ergodicity in the setting of $\mathbb{Z}$-actions. We generalize this result for actions of second-countable locally compact abelian groups. We obtain two…

~This paper presents a general result that allows for establishing a link between the Kolmogorov-Marcinkiewicz-Zygmund strong law of large numbers and Feller's strong law of large numbers in a Banach space setting. Let $\{X, X_{n}; n \geq…

We show that steady-state probabilities of a nonequilibrium Markovian system can be reconstructed from a weighted ensemble average of finite-time loop-erased paths. Each path $\Gamma$ is weighted by $e^{-S(\Gamma)}$, where $S(\Gamma)$ can…

Random variables $X^i$, $i=1,2$ are 'probabilistically equivalent' if they have the same law. Moreover, in any class of equivalent random variables it is easy to select canonical representatives. The corresponding questions are more…

Let $\Gamma$ be a countable group and denote by $\Cal S$ the equivalence relation induced by the Bernoulli action $\Gamma\curvearrowright [0,1]^{\Gamma}$, where $[0,1]^{\Gamma}$ is endowed with the product Lebesgue measure. We prove that…

A sequence of real numbers $\{x_{n}\}_{n\in \mathbb{N}}$ is said to be $\alpha \beta$-statistically convergent of order $\gamma$ (where $0<\gamma\leq 1$) to a real number $x$ \cite{a} if for every $\delta>0,$ $$\underset{n\rightarrow…

Along recent decades, an intensive worldwide research activity is focusing both black holes and cosmos (e.g. the dark-energy phenomenon) on the basis of entropic approaches. The Boltzmann-Gibbs-based Bekenstein-Hawking entropy…

If G is a Polish group, then there is a Polish G-space X which is universal among Polish G-spaces with respect to continuous G-embeddings.

Let $G$ be a locally compact second countable groupoid with a fixed Haar system $\lambda=\{\lambda^{u}\}_{u\in G^{0}}$ and $(\Phi,\Psi)$ be a complementary pair of $N$-functions satisfying $\Delta_{2}$-condition. In this article, we…

Let $(X,{\mathcal A},\mu)$ be a probability space and let $S\colon X\to X$ be a measurable transformation. Motivated by the paper of K. Nikodem [Czechoslovak Math. J. 41(116) (4) (1991) 565--569], we concentrate on a functional equation…

We give a classification of unitary representations of certain Polish, not necessarily locally compact, groups: the groups of all measurable functions with values in the circle and the groups of all continuous functions on compact, second…

Under a mild definability assumption, we characterize the family of Borel actions $\Gamma \curvearrowright X$ of tsi Polish groups on Polish spaces that can be decomposed into countably-many actions admitting complete Borel sets that are…

In the presence of suitable power spaces, compactness of $\mathbf{X}$ can be characterized as the singleton $\{X\}$ being open in the space $\mathcal{O}(\mathbf{X})$ of open subsets of $\mathbf{X}$. Equivalently, this means that universal…

Let $\gamma$ be the standard Gaussian measure on $\mathbb{R}^n$ and let $\mathcal{P}_{\gamma}$ be the space of probability measures that are absolutely continuous with respect to $\gamma$. We study lower bounds for the functional…

To any positive contraction $Q$ on $\ell^2(W)$, there is associated a determinantal probability measure ${\mathbf P}^Q$ on $2^W$, where $W$ is a denumerable set. Let $\Gamma$ be a countable sofic finitely generated group and $G = (\Gamma,…
