This dissertation investigates the relative complexity between a continuum and its proper subcontinua, in particular, providing examples of atriodic n-od-like continua. Let X be a continuum and n be an integer greater than or equal to…
Fix an irrational number $\alpha$. Let $X_1,X_2,\cdots$ be independent, identically distributed, integer-valued random variables with characteristic function $\varphi$, and let $S_n=\sum_{i=1}^n X_i$ be the partial sums. Consider the random…
Univariate or multivariate ordinal responses are often assumed to arise from a latent continuous parametric distribution, with covariate effects which enter linearly. We introduce a Bayesian nonparametric modeling approach for univariate…
We obtain an analog of the Montgomery-Hooley asymptotic formula for the variance of the number of primes in arithmetic progressions. In the present paper the moduli are restricted to the sequences of integer parts $[F(n)]$, where $F(t) =…
Motivated by the widely used geometric median-of-means estimator in machine learning, this paper studies statistical inference for ultrahigh dimensionality location parameter based on the sample spatial median under a general multivariate…
Using nonlinear hydrocodes we have calculated single mode saturation amplitudes for beta Cephei models. Predicted saturation amplitudes are systematically higher than amplitudes observed in beta Cephei variables, even in monoperiodic ones.…
In the paper, we devote to defining an available measure to quantify the nonbilocal correlation in the entanglement-swapping experiment. Then we obtain analytical formulas to calculate the quantifier when the inputs are pure states. For the…
We present a theoretical model of matter-wave diffraction through a material nanostructure. This model is based on the numerical solution of the time-dependent Schr{\"o}dinger equation, which goes beyond the standard semi-classical…
We outline a novel numerical method, called Ultrafast Ultrafast (UF$^2$), for calculating the $n^\text{th}$-order wavepackets required for calculating n-wave mixing signals. The method is simple to implement, and we demonstrate that it is…
We construct a compound Poisson process conditioned on its random summation that represents the sizes of the connected components in the sparse Erd\H{o}s-R\'enyi random graph $G(n,c/n)$. This new representation depicts a connection between…
Let $X_t$ be the (reflecting) diffusion process generated by $L:=\Delta+\nabla V$ on a complete connected Riemannian manifold $M$ possibly with a boundary $\partial M$, where $V\in C^1(M)$ such that $\mu(d x):= e^{V(x)}d x$ is a probability…
We develop a novel and powerful method of exactly calculating various transport characteristics of waves in one-dimensional random media with (or without) coherent absorption or amplification. Using the method, we compute the probability…
An analogue to Raoult's law is determined for the case of a 3He-4He mixture adsorbed in the interstitial channels of a bundle of carbon nanotubes. Unlike the case of He mixtures in other environments, the ratio of the partial pressures of…
We compute that the growth of the origin occupation-time variance up to time t in dimension d=2 with respect to asymmetric simple exclusion in equilibrium with density 1/2 is in a certain sense at least t(log(log t)) for general rates, and…
Using and extending fractional order statistic theory, we characterize the $O(n^{-1})$ coverage probability error of the previously proposed confidence intervals for population quantiles using $L$-statistics as endpoints in Hutson (1999).…
For a half-integral weight modular form $f = \sum_{n=1}^{\infty} a_f(n)n^{\frac{k-1}{2}} q^n$ of weight $k = l +\frac{1}{2}$ on $\Gamma_0(4)$ such that $a_f(n)$ ($n$ $\in$ $\mathbb{N}$) are real, we prove for a fixed suitable natural number…
Modeling the properties of chemical mixtures is a difficult but important part of any modeling process intended to be applicable to the often messy and impure phenomena of everyday life, including food and environmental safety, healthcare,…
Covariance estimation becomes challenging in the regime where the number p of variables outstrips the number n of samples available to construct the estimate. One way to circumvent this problem is to assume that the covariance matrix is…
The overhand shuffle is one of the ``real'' card shuffling methods in the sense that some people actually use it to mix a deck of cards. A mathematical model was constructed and analyzed by Pemantle [J. Theoret. Probab. 2 (1989) 37--49] who…
Spatial Fourier transforms of quasipatterns observed in Faraday wave experiments suggest that the patterns are well represented by the sum of 8, 10 or 12 Fourier modes with wavevectors equally spaced around a circle. This representation has…
