Let g(x)=x/2 + 17/30 (mod 1), let \xi_i, i= 1,2,... be a sequence of independent, identically distributed random variables with uniform distribution on the interval [0,1/15], define g_i(x)=g(x)+ \xi_i (mod 1) and, for n=1,2,..., define…

We generalize standard credal set models for imprecise probabilities to include higher order credal sets -- confidences about confidences. In doing so, we specify how an agent's higher order confidences (credal sets) update upon observing…

Let $n_1,\cdots,n_r$ be any finite sequence of integers and let $S$ be the set of all natural numbers $n$ for which there exists a divisor $d(x)=1+\sum_{i=1}^{deg(d)}c_ix^i$ of $x^n-1$ such that $c_i=n_i$ for $1\leq i \leq r$. In this paper…

Hughston has recently proposed a stochastic extension of the Schr\"odinger equation, expressed as a stochastic differential equation on projective Hilbert space. We derive new projective Hilbert space identities, which we use to give a…

In this paper, we prove the existence of a measure-preserving bijection from unit square to unit segment. This bijection is also called the probability isomorphism between two probability spaces. Then we give a new proof of the existence of…

A common and effective method for calculating the steady-state distribution of a process under stochastic resetting is the renewal approach that requires only the knowledge of the reset-free propagator of the underlying process and the…

Permutons, which are probability measures on the unit square $[0, 1]^2$ with uniform marginals, are the natural scaling limits for sequences of (random) permutations. We introduce a $d$-dimensional generalization of these measures for all…

This paper is concerned with the study of the consistency of a variational method for probability measure quantization, deterministically realized by means of a minimizing principle, balancing power repulsion and attraction potentials. The…

Random metastability occurs when an externally forced or noisy system possesses more than one state of apparent equilibrium. This work investigates a class of random dynamical systems, arising from perturbing a one-dimensional piecewise…

We study the convergence of random function iterations for finding an invariant measure of the corresponding Markov operator. We call the problem of finding such an invariant measure the stochastic fixed point problem. This generalizes…

We examine the extent to which random samplings from the values of a random set, determine the distribution of the random set itself. We also comment on how, given the statistics of the sampling, to detect the distribution. Several methods…

We study the discrete-time evolution of a transformation on a set of probability measures that is up-dated combining independently the marginals on the atoms of partitions. This model was recently introduced in Baake, Baake and Salamat…

We construct a measure in the hamiltonian function level sets that is invariant under the hamiltonian flow for short times and flow preserving for arbitrarily long times. This allows a probabilistic approach to the study of hamiltonian…

This paper describes the probabilistic behaviour of a random Sturmian word. It performs the probabilistic analysis of the recurrence function which can be viewed as a waiting time to discover all the factors of length $n$ of the Sturmian…

A permutation $\sigma$ describing the relative orders of the first $n$ iterates of a point $x$ under a self-map $f$ of the interval $I=[0,1]$ is called an \emph{order pattern}. For fixed $f$ and $n$, measuring the points $x\in I$ (according…

Stern's diatomic series, denoted by $(a(n))_{n \geq 0}$, is defined by the recurrence relations $a(2n) = a(n)$ and $a(2n + 1) = a(n) + a(n + 1)$ for $n \geq 1$, and initial values $a(0) = 0$ and $a(1) = 1$. A record-setter for a sequence…

A new unequal probability sampling method is proposed. This method is sequential. The decision to select or not each unit is made based on the order in which the units appear. A variant of this method allows selecting a sample from a…

Let $\pi_n$ be a uniformly chosen random permutation on $[n]$. The authors of [2] showed that the expected number of distinct consecutive patterns of all lengths $k\in\{1,2,\ldots,n\}$ in $\pi_n$ was $\frac{n^2}{2}(1-o(1))$ as $n\to\infty$,…

Bernoulli sieve is a recursive construction of a random composition (ordered partition) of integer $n$. This composition can be induced by sampling from a random discrete distribution which has frequencies equal to the sizes of component…
