The Thue--Morse sequence $\{t(n)\}_{n\geqslant 1}$ is the indicator function of the parity of the number of ones in the binary expansion of positive integers $n$, where $t(n)=1$ (resp. $=0$) if the binary expansion of $n$ has an odd (resp.…
Classical random matrix ensembles with orthogonal symmetry have the property that the joint distribution of every second eigenvalue is equal to that of a classical random matrix ensemble with symplectic symmetry. These results are shown to…
We establish a generic symmetrization property for dependent random variables $\{x_{t}\}_{t=1}^{n}$ on $\mathbb{R}^{p}$, where $p$ $>>$ $n$ is allowed. We link $\mathbb{E}\psi (\max_{1\leq i\leq p}|1/n\sum_{t=1}^{n}(x_{i,t}$ $-$…
Let $R$ be a commutative ring and $n\geq1$ and $p\geq0$ two integers. Let $h_{k,\ i}$ be an element of $R$ for all $k\in\mathbb Z$ and $i\in [n]$. For any $\alpha\in\mathbb Z^n$, we define \[ t_{\alpha}:=\det\begin{pmatrix} h_{\alpha_1+1,\…
For a (non-unit) Pisot number $\beta$, several collections of tiles are associated with $\beta$-numeration. This includes an aperiodic and a periodic one made of Rauzy fractals, a periodic one induced by the natural extension of the…
We study the validity of congruence inclusions of the form $ \alpha ( \beta \circ \alpha \gamma \circ \beta \circ \dotsc \circ \alpha \gamma \circ \beta ) \subseteq \alpha \beta \circ \alpha \gamma \circ \alpha \beta \circ \dots$ in…
Let $\alpha, \beta \geq 0$ and $\alpha + \beta < 1$. In this short note, we show that $\liminf_{n \to \infty} p_n^\beta(p_{n+1}^\alpha - p_n^\alpha) = 0$, where $p_n$ is the $n$th prime. This notes an improvement over results of S\'{a}ndor…
A matching on a set $X$ is a collection of pairwise disjoint subsets of $X$ of size two. Using computers, we analyze the integral homology of the matching complex $M_n$, which is the simplicial complex of matchings on the set $\{1, >...,…
In this paper, we investigate the Hausdorff measure of shrinking target sets in $\beta$-dynamical systems. These sets are dynamically defined in analogy to the classical theory of weighted and multiplicative approximation. While the…
Let $E$ be the self-similar set generated by the {\it iterated function system} {\[ f_0(x)=\frac{x}{\beta},\quad f_1(x)=\frac{x+1}{\beta}, \quad f_{\beta+1}=\frac{x+\beta+1}{\beta} \]}with $\beta\ge 3$. {Then} $E$ is a self-similar set with…
A transformation group approach to the prior for the parameters of the beta distribution is suggested which accounts for finite sets of data by imposing a limit to the range of parameter values under consideration. The relationship between…
We give an expression for the Garsia entropy of Bernoulli convolutions in terms of products of matrices. This gives an explicit rate of convergence of the Garsia entropy and shows that one can calculate the Hausdorff dimension of the…
We consider a number of generalizations of the $\beta$-extended MacMahon Master Theorem for a matrix. The generalizations are based on replacing permutations on multisets formed from matrix indices by partial permutations or derangements…
We consider the density $X_t(x)$ of the critical $(\alpha,\beta)$-superprocess in $R^d$ with $\alpha\in (0,2)$ and $\beta<\frac \alpha d$. A recent result from PDE implies a dichotomy for the density: for fixed $x$, $X_t(x)>0$ a.s. on…
Fundamental questions in Diophantine approximation are related to the Hausdorff dimension of sets of the form $\{x\in \mathbb{R}: \delta_x = \delta\}$, where $\delta \geq 1$ and $\delta_x$ is the Diophantine approximation rate of an…
We characterize all pairs $(\beta,n),(\beta^\prime,m)$ such that the alternate $(\beta,n)$ and $(\beta^\prime,m)$-transformations $K_{(\beta,n)}$ and $K_{(\beta^\prime,m)}$ have the same absolutely continuous invariant measure, where…
Fix a positive integer $N$ and a real number $0< \beta < 1/(N+1)$. Let $\Gamma$ be the homogeneous symmetric Cantor set generated by the IFS $$ \Big\{ \phi_i(x)=\beta x + i \frac{1-\beta}{N}: i=0,1,\cdots, N \Big\}. $$ For…
Bayesian statistics has two common measures of central tendency of a posterior distribution: posterior means and Maximum A Posteriori (MAP) estimates. In this paper, we discuss a connection between MAP estimates and posterior means. We…
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 $\delta>0,$ $$\underset{n\rightarrow…
Let $\beta>1$. For $x \in [0,\infty)$, we have so-called the $\beta$-expansion of $x$ in base $\beta$ as follows: $$x= \sum_{j \leq k} x_{j}\beta^{j} = x_{k}\beta^{k}+ \cdots + x_{1}\beta+x_{0}+x_{-1}\beta^{-1} + x_{-2}\beta^{-2} + \cdots$$…
