We show that the density of quadratic forms in $n$ variables over ${\mathbb Z}_p$ that are isotropic is a rational function in $p$, where the rational function is independent of $p$, and we determine this rational function explicitly. As a…

We investigate the probability that a random quadratic form in ${\mathbb{Z}}[x_1,...,x_n]$ has a totally isotropic subspace of a given dimension. We show that this global probability is a product of local probabilities. Our main result…

We study the conjugation action of orthogonal matrices on symmetric random matrices. Given a fixed orthogonal matrix over an algebraic number field and a random matrix with entries sufficiently uniform in the ring of integers, we wonder…

A positive definite integral quadratic form is said to be almost (primitively) universal if it (primitively) represents all but at most finitely many positive integers. In general, almost primitive universality is a stronger property than…

We determine the probability that a random polynomial of degree $n$ over $\mathbb{Z}_p$ has exactly $r$ roots in $\mathbb{Q}_p$, and show that it is given by a rational function of $p$ that is invariant under replacing $p$ by $1/p$.

We consider a class of Gaussian random holomorphic functions, whose expected zero set is uniformly distributed over $\C^n $. This class is unique (up to multiplication by a non zero holomorphic function), and is closely related to a…

An integral quadratic form is called strictly $n$-regular if it primitively represents all quadratic forms in $n$ variables that are primitively represented by its genus. For any $n \geq 2$, it will be shown that there are only finitely…

An integral over the interval $(0,\pi)$ is given for the cumulative distribution function of a sum of independent gamma random variables with different scale and shape parameters. The cumulative distribution function of a positive definite…

We study the hole probability of Gaussian random entire functions. More specifically, we work with the flat model (the zero set of this function has a distribution which is invariant with respect to the plane isometries). A hole is the…

This paper is concerned with the density of rational points of bounded height lying on a variety defined by an integral quadratic form Q. In the case of four variables, we give an estimate that does not depend on the coefficients of Q. For…

From a suitable integral representation of the Laplace transform of a positive semi-definite quadratic form of independent real random variables with not necessarily identical densities a univariate integral representation is derived for…

We prove an explicit upper bound on the number of real quadratic fields that admit a universal quadratic form of a given rank, thus establishing a density zero statement. More generally, we obtain such a result for totally positive definite…

Let Q be a non-singular diagonal quadratic form in at least four variables. We provide upper bounds for the number of integer solutions to the equation Q=0, which lie in a box with sides of length 2B, as B tends to infinity. The estimates…

Let $f(t_1,\ldots,t_n)$ be a nondegenerate integral quadratic form. We analyze the asymptotic behavior of the function $D_f(X)$, the number of integers of absolute value up to $X$ represented by $f$. When $f$ is isotropic or $n$ is at least…

Let $\{\eta_{j}\}_{j = 0}^{N}$ be a sequence of independent, identically distributed random complex Gaussian variables, and let $\{f_{j} (z)\}_{j = 0}^{N}$ be a sequence of given analytic functions that are real-valued on the real number…

The distribution of the sum of r-th power of standard normal random variables is a generalization of the chi-squared distribution. In this paper, we represent the probability density function of the random variable by an one-dimensional…

An $n$-ary integral quadratic form is a formal expression $Q(x_1,...,x_n)=\sum_{1\leq i,j\leq n}a_{ij}x_ix_j$ in $n$-variables $x_1,...,x_n$, where $a_{ij}=a_{ji} \in \mathbb{Z}$. We present a poly$(n,k, \log p, \log t)$ randomized…
