In this paper we investigate the distribution of the set of values of a linear map at integer points on a quadratic surface. In particular, it is shown that subject to certain algebraic conditions, this set is equidistributed. This can be…
We are concerned with the general problem of proving the existence of joint distributions of two discrete random variables $M$ and $N$ subject to infinitely many constraints of the form $\mathbb{P}\left(M=i,N=j\right)=0$. In particular, the…
We establish a general transference principle for the irrationality measure of points with $\mathbb{Q}$-linearly independent coordinates in $\mathbb{R}^{n+1}$, for any given integer $n\geq 1$. On this basis, we recover an important…
Quantization for a probability distribution refers to the idea of estimating a given probability by a discrete probability supported by a finite number of points. In this paper, firstly a general approach to this process is outlined using…
Let $\{X_{k,i};i\geq 1,k\geq 1\}$ be an array of i.i.d. random variables and let $\{p_n;n\geq 1\}$ be a sequence of positive integers such that $n/p_n$ is bounded away from 0 and $\infty$. For $W_n=\max_{1\leq i<j\leq…
In this article, we consider $\beta$-ensembles, i.e. collections of particles with random positions on the real line having joint distribution $$\frac{1}{Z_N(\beta)}|\Delta(\lambda)|^\beta e^{- \frac{N\beta}{4}\sum_{i=1}^N\lambda_i^2}d…
For a random sample of points in $\mathbb{R}$, we consider the number of pairs whose members are nearest neighbors (NN) to each other and the number of pairs sharing a common NN. The first type of pairs are called reflexive NNs whereas…
Given an equidistributed set in the whole Euclidean space, we have established in [1] that there exists a constant positive $C$ such that the observability inequality of diffusion equations holds for all $T\in]0,1[$, with an observability…

Around 2008, Schramm conjectured that the critical probabilities for Bernoulli bond percolation satisfy the following continuity property: If $(G_n)_{n\geq 1}$ is a sequence of transitive graphs converging locally to a transitive graph $G$…

We consider a sequence of random variables $(R_n)$ defined by the recurrence $R_n=Q_n+M_nR_{n-1}$, $n\ge1$, where $R_0$ is arbitrary and $(Q_n,M_n)$, $n\ge1$, are i.i.d. copies of a two-dimensional random vector $(Q,M)$, and $(Q_n,M_n)$ is…
We provide numerical indications of the $q$-generalised central limit theorem that has been conjectured (Tsallis 2004) in nonextensive statistical mechanics. We focus on $N$ binary random variables correlated in a {\it scale-invariant} way.…
Let $\{A_n\}_{n=1}^{\infty}$ be a sequence of events on a probability space $(\Omega,\mathcal{F},\mathbf{P})$. We show that if $\lim_{m\to\infty}\sum_{n=1}^{m}w_n\mathbf{P}(A_n)=\infty$ where each $w_n\in\mathbb{R}$, then…
We show that if $\vec X = (X_1, \dots, X_N)$ is a uniform random vector on the unit Euclidean sphere, the empirical CDF of the components of $\sqrt N \vec X = (\sqrt N X_1, \dots, \sqrt N X_N)$ concentrates exponentially rapidly in $N$…
Consider a complex random $n\times n$ matrix ${\bf X}_n=(x_{ij})_{n\times n}$, whose entries $x_{ij}$ are independent random variables with zero means and unit variances. It is well-known that Tao and Vu (Ann Probab 38: 2023-2065, 2010)…
