In this article, we investigate the statistical distribution and asymptotic behavior of the family of monic integer polynomials of degree $n$ having at least one root in a fixed number field $K$. Although the framework of thin sets implies…

This paper considers estimation of a univariate density from an individual numerical sequence. It is assumed that (i) the limiting relative frequencies of the numerical sequence are governed by an unknown density, and (ii) there is a known…

Let $\varepsilon>0$. We construct an explicit, full-measure set of $\alpha \in[0,1]$ such that if $\gamma \in \mathbb{R}$ then, for almost all $\beta \in[0,1]$, if $\delta \in \mathbb{R}$ then there are infinitely many integers $n\geq 1$…

We provide a general theorem bounding the error in the approximation of a random measure of interest--for example, the empirical population measure of types in a Wright-Fisher model--and a Dirichlet process, which is a measure having…

This note examines the infinite divisibility of density-based transformations of normal random variables. We characterize a class of density-based transformations of normal variables which produces non-infinitely divisible distributions. We…

Let $\{{\bf \mathcal{Z}}_n:n\geq 1\}$ be a sequence of i.i.d. random probability measures. Independently, for each $n\geq 1$, let $(X_{n1},\ldots, X_{nn})$ be a random vector of positive random variables that add up to one. This paper…

An important line of research is the investigation of the laws of random variables known as Dirichlet means as discussed in Cifarelli and Regazzini(1990). However there is not much information on inter-relationships between different…

The two parameter Poisson-Dirichlet distribution $PD(\alpha,\theta)$ is the distribution of an infinite dimensional random discrete probability. It is a generalization of Kingman's Poisson-Dirichlet distribution. The two parameter Dirichlet…

We describe singular diffusion in bounded subsets $\Omega$ of $\mathbb{R}^n$ by form methods and characterize the associated operator. We also prove positivity and contractivity of the corresponding semigroup. This results in a description…

Billingsley's theorem (1972) asserts that the Poisson--Dirichlet process is the limit, as $n \to \infty$, of the process giving the relative log sizes of the largest prime factor, the second largest, and so on, of a random integer chosen…

Let the sequence $\{t_n\}_{n=1}^{\infty}$ of reals satisfy the condition $ \frac{t_{n+1}}{t_n} \ge 1+ \frac{\gamma}{n^\beta},0\le \beta <1, \gamma >0. $ Then the set $ \{\alpha \in [0,1]: \exists \varkappa > 0 \forall n \in \mathbb{N} ||t_n…

In this note we establish a uniform bound for the distribution of a sum $S_n=X_1+\cdots+X_n$ of independent non-homogeneous Bernoulli trials. Specifically, we prove that $\sigma_n \mathbb{P}(S_n\!=\!j)\leq\eta$ where $\sigma_n$ denotes the…
