Prime counting functions are believed to exhibit, in various contexts, discrepancies beyond what famous equidistribution results predict; this phenomenon is known as Chebyshev's bias. Rubinstein and Sarnak have developed a framework which…
We characterize the groups isomorphic to full automorphism groups of ordered abelian groups. The result will follow from classical theorems on ordered groups adding an argument from proofs used to realize rings as endomorphism rings of…
An equivalent condition for the product of elements of an independent random sample on a compact algebraic group converging in distribution to some random variable as the sample size increases is obtained. Namely, a limit distribution…
Let $K/\mathbb{Q}$ be a finitely generated field of characteristic zero and $X/K$ a smooth projective variety. Fix $q\in\mathbb{N}$. For every prime number $\ell$ let $\rho_\ell$ be the representation of $\mathrm{Gal}(K)$ on the \'etale…
We study the characteristic polynomial of Haar distributed random unitary matrices. We show that after a suitable normalization, as one increases the size of the matrix, powers of the absolute value of the characteristic polynomial as well…
We estimate the number of graphical regular representations (GRRs) of a given group with large enough order. As a consequence, we show that almost all finite Cayley graphs have full automorphism groups 'as small as possible'. This confirms…
The Dufresne laws (laws of product of independent random variables with gamma and beta distributions) occur as stationary distribution of certain Markov chains $ X_n $ on $ R$ defined by: \begin{equation} X_n = A_n ( X_{n-1} + B_n )…
This is the second installment of an exposition of an ACL2 formalization of finite group theory. The first, which was presented at the 2022 ACL2 workshop, covered groups and subgroups, cosets, normal subgroups, and quotient groups,…
We show that if a strictly positive joint probability distribution for a set of binary random variables factors according to a tree, then vertex separation represents all and only the independence relations enclosed in the distribution. The…
Let $k$ be a field of characteristic zero, and let $f: k[x,y] \to k[x,y]$, $f: (x,y) \mapsto (p,q)$, be a $k$-algebra endomorphism having an invertible Jacobian. Write $p=a_ny^n+\cdots+a_1y+a_0$, where $n=deg_y(p) \in \mathbb{N}$, $a_i \in…
We classify the nonsplit extensions of elementary abelian $p$-groups by $PSL_2(q)$, with odd $p$ dividing $q-1$, for an irreducible induced action, calculate the relevant low-dimensional cohomology groups, and describe the automorphism…
In this work we present a general derivation of the non-Fickian behavior for the self-diffusion of identically interacting particle systems with excluded mutual passage. We show that the conditional probability distribution of finding a…
Let $T_1,...,T_n$ denote free random variables. For two linear forms $L_1=\sum_{j=1}^n a_jT_j$ and $L_2=\sum_{j=1}^n b_jT_j$ with real coefficients $a_j$ and $b_j$ we shall describe all distributions of $T_1,...,T_n$ such that $L_1$ and…

This paper investigates the structure of the automorphism scheme of a smooth canonically polarized surface $X$ defined over an algebraically closed field of characteristic 2. In particular it is investigated when Aut(X) is not smooth. This…
We assign to a finite $CW$-complex and an element in its first cohomology group a twisted version of the $L^2$-Euler characteristic and study its main properties. In the case of an irreducible orientable $3$-manifold with empty or toroidal…
Conditional independence models in the Gaussian case are algebraic varieties in the cone of positive definite covariance matrices. We study these varieties in the case of Bayesian networks, with a view towards generalizing the recursive…
We study upper bounds on the order of automorphisms of non-singular curves $X$ satisfying at least one of the following hypothesis: 1) $X$ is an $m$-sheeted covering of exactly one non-singular curve of genus $\gamma$, where $m$ is prime;…
Let (A,\alpha) be a C*-dynamical system. We introduce the notion of pressure P_\alpha(H) of the automorphism \alpha at a self-adjoint operator H\in A. Then we consider the class of AF-systems satisfying the following condition: there exists…
