We show that the class of strongly connected graphical models with treewidth at most k can be properly efficiently PAC-learnt with respect to the Kullback-Leibler Divergence. Previous approaches to this problem, such as those of Chow ([1]),…

We determine the true asymptotic behaviour for the expected number of connected components for a model of random lemniscates proposed recently by Lerario and Lundberg. These are defined as the subsets of the Riemann sphere, where the…

Addressing a problem posed by W. Li and A. Wei (2009), we investigate the average number of (complex) zeros of a random harmonic polynomial $p(z) + \overline{q(z)}$ sampled from the Kac ensemble, i.e., where the coefficients are independent…

For a regular, compact, polynomially convex circled set K in C^2, we construct a sequence of pairs {P_n,Q_n} of homogeneous polynomials in two variables with deg P_n = deg Q_n = n such that the sets K_n: = {(z,w) \in C^2 : |P_n(z,w)| \leq…

For a given convex body K in $R^d$, a random polytope $K^{(n)}$ is defined (essentially) as the intersection of $n$ independent closed halfspaces containing $K$ and having an isotropic and (in a specified sense) uniform distribution. We…

The estimates of the uniform norm of the Chebyshev polynomial associated with a compact set $K$ consisting of a finite number of continua in the complex plane are established. These estimates are exact (up to a constant factor) in the case…

The object of study is a soft random geometric graph with vertices given by a Poisson point process on a line and edges between vertices present with probability that has a polynomial decay in the distance between them. Various aspects of…

A matrix polynomial is a polynomial in a complex variable $\lambda$ with coefficients in $n \times n$ complex matrices. The spectral curve of a matrix polynomial $P(\lambda)$ is the curve $\{ (\lambda, \mu) \in \mathbb{C}^2 \mid…

We give two different, statistically consistent definitions of the length l of a prime knot tied into a polymer ring. In the good solvent regime the polymer is modelled by a self avoiding polygon of N steps on cubic lattice and l is the…

For the size of the largest component in a supercritical random geometric graph, this paper estimates its expectation which tends to a polynomial on a rate of exponential decay, and sharpens its asymptotic result with a central limit…

Given a set C in R^d, let p(C) be the probability that a random d-dimensional unimodular lattice, chosen according to Haar measure on SL(d,Z)\SL(d,R), is disjoint from C\{0}. For special convex sets C we prove bounds on p(C) which are sharp…

We consider families of polynomial lemniscates in the complex plane and determine if they bound a Jordan domain. This allows us to find examples of regions for which we can calculate the projection of $\bar{z}$ to the Bergman space of the…

We present experimental results on knotting in off-lattice self-avoiding polygons in the bead-chain model. Using Clisby's tree data structure and the scale-free pivot algorithm, for each $k$ between $10$ and $27$ we generated $2^{43-k}$…

We show that the mechanical properties of a worm-like-chain (WLC) polymer, of contour length $L$ and persistence length $\l$ such that $t=L/\l\sim{\cal O}(1)$, depend both on the ensemble and the constraint on end-orientations. In the…

The canonical polynomial is an important output of the multivariable topological Poincar\'e series associated with a normal surface singularity. It can be considered as a multivariable polynomial generalization of the Seiberg--Witten…

Graham and Lov\'{a}sz conjectured in 1978 that the sequence of normalized coefficients of the distance characteristic polynomial of a tree of order $n$ is unimodal with the maximum value occurring at $\lfloor\frac{n}{2}\rfloor$. In this…

We prove the existence of complex polynomials $p(z)$ of degree $n$ and $q(z)$ of degree $m<n$ such that the harmonic polynomial $ p(z) + \overline{q(z)}$ has at least $\lceil n \sqrt{m} \rceil$ many zeros. This provides an array of new…

Here, we find the characteristics polynomial of normalized Laplacian of a tree. The coefficients of this polynomial are expressed by the higher order general Randi\'c indices for matching, whose values depend on the structure of the tree.…

In testing the independence of two Gaussian populations, one computes the distribution of the sample canonical correlation coefficients, given that the actual correlation is zero. The "Laplace transform" of this distribution is not only an…

Gauss and Abel proved that the points dividing the unit circle and the lemniscate of Bernoulli in parts of equal length have algebraic coordinates. In this note we generalise these results to the Erd\H{o}s lemniscate with three leaves. We…
