Solutions of the discrete Painlev\'e II hierarchy are shown to be in relation with a family of Toeplitz determinants describing certain quantities in multicritical random partitions models, for which the limiting behavior has been recently…
The linear $\delta$ expansion (LDE) is applied to the Hamiltonian $H=(p^2 +m^2 x^2)/2 + igx^3$, which arises in the study of Lee-Yang zeros in statistical mechanics. Despite being non-Hermitian, this Hamiltonian appears to possess a real,…

We study the global analytic properties of the solutions of a particular family of Painleve' VI equations with the parameters $\beta=\gamma=0$, $\delta={1\over2}$ and $\alpha$ arbitrary. We introduce a class of solutions having critical…
Hermite and Laguerre $\beta$-ensembles are important and well studied models in random matrix theory with special cases $\beta=1,2,4$ corresponding to eigenvalues of classical random matrix ensembles. It is well known that the largest…
We find the local rate of convergence of the least squares estimator (LSE) of a one dimensional convex regression function when (a) a certain number of derivatives vanish at the point of interest, and (b) the true regression function is…
The comparison principle for scalar second order parabolic PDEs on functions $u(t,x)$ admits a topological interpretation: pairs of solutions, $u^1(t,\cdot)$ and $u^2(t,\cdot)$, evolve so as to not increase the intersection number of their…
We survey the connections between the six-vertex (square ice) model of 2d statistical mechanics and random matrix theory. We highlight the same universal probability distributions appearing on both sides, and also indicate related open…
There is an abundance of equations of Painlev\'e type besides the classical Painlev\'e equations. Classifications have been computed by the Japanese school. Here we consider Painlev\'e type equations induced by isomonodromic families of…
Let $X$ be the branching particle diffusion corresponding to the operator $Lu+\beta (u^{2}-u)$ on $D\subseteq \mathbb{R}^{d}$ (where $\beta \geq 0$ and $\beta\not\equiv 0$). Let $\lambda_{c}$ denote the generalized principal eigenvalue for…
We prove that the convex least squares estimator (LSE) attains a $n^{-1/2}$ pointwise rate of convergence in any region where the truth is linear. In addition, the asymptotic distribution can be characterized by a modified invelope process.…
The distributions of the spacing s between nearest-neighbor levels of unfolded spectra of random matrices from the beta-Hermite ensemble (beta-HE) is investigated by Monte Carlo simulations. The random matrices from the beta-HE are…
We consider the Clarkson-McLeod solutions of the fourth Painlev\'e equation. This family of solutions behave like $\kappa D_{\alpha-\frac{1}{2}}^2(\sqrt{2}x)$ as $x\rightarrow +\infty$, where $\kappa $ is an arbitrary real constant and…

We present two results related to an edge-isoperimetric question for Cayley graphs on the integer lattice asked by Ben Barber and Joshua Erde [Isoperimetry of Integer Lattices, Discrete Analysis 7 (2018)]. For any (undirected) graph $G$,…
Given a graph $G = (V,E)$, an $(\alpha, \beta)$-ruling set is a subset $S \subseteq V$ such that the distance between any two vertices in $S$ is at least $\alpha$, and the distance between any vertex in $V$ and the closest vertex in $S$ is…
Let $G=G(n,p_n)$ be a homogeneous Erd\"os-R\'enyi graph, and $A$ its adjacency matrix with eigenvalues $\lambda_1(A) \geq \lambda_2(A) \geq ... \geq \lambda_n(A).$ Local laws have been used to show that $lambda_2(A)$ can exhibit…
In this paper we investigate compatible overdetermined systems of PDEs on the plane with one common characteristic. Lie's theorem states that its integration is equivalent to a system of ODEs, and we relate this to the geometry of rank 2…
This article establishes a universal robust limit theorem under a sublinear expectation framework. Under moment and consistency conditions, we show that, for $\alpha \in(1,2)$, the i.i.d. sequence \[ \left \{ \left(…
