For $x\in [0,1)$, let $x=[a_1(x), a_2(x),...]$ be its continued fraction expansion with partial quotients ${a_n(x), n\ge 1}$. Let $\psi : \mathbb{N} \rightarrow \mathbb{N}$ be a function with $\psi(n)/n\to \infty$ as $n\to \infty$. In this…

We study sporadic randomness by means of a non-extensive form of Lyapunov coefficient. We recover from a different perspective the same conclusion as that of an earlier work, namely, that the ordinary Pesin theorem applies (P.Gaspard and…

A spectral representation for regularly varying L\'evy processes with index between one and two is established and the properties of the resulting random noise are discussed in detail giving also new insight in the $L^2$-case where the…

We introduce here a general framework for studying continued fraction expansions for complex numbers and establish some results on the convergence of the corresponding sequence of convergents. For continued fraction expansions with partial…

We investigate the probability of observing a given pattern of $n$ rises and falls in a random stationary data series. The data are modelled as a sequence of $n+1$ independent and identically distributed random numbers. This probabilistic…

We prove two estimates of the rate of convergence in the Lindeberg theorem, involving algebraic truncated third-order moments and the classical Lindeberg fraction, which generalize a series of inequalities due to (Esseen, 1969), (Rozovskii,…

The R\'enyi entropy is a generalization of the Shannon entropy and is widely used in mathematical statistics and applied sciences for quantifying the uncertainty in a probability distribution. We consider estimation of the quadratic R\'enyi…

We propose a compression-based version of the empirical entropy of a finite string over a finite alphabet. Whereas previously one considers the naked entropy of (possibly higher order) Markov processes, we consider the sum of the…

In this paper our first goal is to give precise definition of the L\'evy bridges with random length. Our second task is to establish the Markov property of this process with respect to its completed natural filtration and thus with respect…

Using the theory of free random variables (FRV) and the Coulomb gas analogy, we construct stable random matrix ensembles that are random matrix generalizations of the classical one-dimensional stable L\'{e}vy distributions. We show that the…

We study continuous time Markov processes on graphs. The notion of frequency is introduced, which serves well as a scaling factor between any Markov time of a continuous time Markov process and that of its jump chain. As an application, we…
