We evaluate the triple correlation of eigenvalues of the Laplacian on generic flat tori in an averaged sense. As two consequence we show that (a) the limit inferior (resp. limit superior) of the triple correlation is almost surely at most…

It is well-known that assumptions of monotonicity in size-bias couplings may be used to prove simple, yet powerful, Poisson approximation results. Here we show how these assumptions may be relaxed, establishing explicit Poisson…

Given $n$ polynomials $p_1, \dots, p_n$ of degree at most $n$ with $\|p_i\|_\infty \le 1$ for $i \in [n]$, we show there exist signs $x_1, \dots, x_n \in \{-1,1\}$ so that \[\Big\|\sum_{i=1}^n x_i p_i\Big\|_\infty < 30\sqrt{n}, \] where…

Convergence of order $O(1/\sqrt{n})$ is obtained for the distance in total variation between the Poisson distribution and the distribution of the number of fixed size cycles in generalized random graphs with random vertex weights. The…

It follows from work of Chung and Graham that for a certain family of polynomials $T_{n}(x)$, derived from the descent statistic on permutations, the coefficient sequence of $T_{n-1}(x)$ coincides with that of the polynomial…

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…

Consider the family of power divergence statistics based on $n$ trials, each leading to one of $r$ possible outcomes. This includes the log-likelihood ratio and Pearson's statistic as important special cases. It is known that in certain…

S. Artstein, K. Ball, F. Barthe, and A. Naor have shown that if (X_j) are i.i.d. random variables, then the entropy of n^{-1/2}(X_1+....+X_n) increases as n increases. The free analogue was recently proven by D. Shlyakhtenko. That is, if…

This paper establishes quantitative correlation inequalities between monotone events and structured threshold objects in both the discrete cube and Gaussian space. We prove that for any increasing balanced family, there exists a linear…

For a real-valued sequence $(x_n)_{n=1}^\infty$, denote by $S_N(\ell)$ the number of its first $N$ fractional parts lying in a random interval of size $\ell:=L/N$, where $L=o(N)$ as $N\to\infty$. We study the variance of $S_N(\ell)$ (the…

Spurious correlations are common in time-series analysis because simple, low-complexity patterns can produce high Pearson correlations even between unrelated series. We argue that Kolmogorov complexity, interpreted as resistance to…

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.…

Distribution testing can be described as follows: $q$ samples are being drawn from some unknown distribution $P$ over a known domain $[n]$. After the sampling process, a decision must be made about whether $P$ holds some property, or is far…

Motivated by the study of the maximal operator for the Schr\"{o}dinger equation on the one-dimensional torus $ \mathbb{T}^1 $, it is conjectured that for any complex sequence $ \{b_n\}_{n=1}^N $, $$ \left\| \sup_{t\in [0,N^2]}…

A sequence x=x_1 x_2...x_n $ is said to be an ascent sequence of length $n$ if it satisfies x_1=0 and $0\leq x_i\leq asc(x_1x_2...x_{i-1})+1$ for all $2\leq i\leq n$, where $asc(x_1x_2... x_{i-1})$ is the number of ascents in the sequence…

Three measures of pseudorandomness of finite binary sequences were introduced by Mauduit and S\'ark\"ozy in 1997 and have been studied extensively since then: the normality measure, the well-distribution measure, and the correlation measure…

We study correlation bounds under pairwise independent distributions for functions with no large Fourier coefficients. Functions in which all Fourier coefficients are bounded by $\delta$ are called $\delta$-{\em uniform}. The search for…

It is an open question whether the fractional parts of nonlinear polynomials at integers have the same fine-scale statistics as a Poisson point process. Most results towards an affirmative answer have so far been restricted to almost sure…

Two parties observe independent copies of a $d$-dimensional vector and a scalar. They seek to test if their data is correlated or not, namely they seek to test if the norm $\|\rho\|_2$ of the correlation vector $\rho$ between their…

We prove that the volumes determined by the lengths of the non-zero vectors $\pm\vecx$ in a random lattice L of covolume 1 define a stochastic process that, as the dimension n tends to infinity, converges weakly to a Poisson process on the…
