Let S be a subset of the unit disk, and let F(s) denote the class of completely multiplicative functions f such that f(p) is in S for all primes p. The authors' main concern is which numbers arise as mean-values of functions in F(s). More…

The Mallows measure is a probability measure on $S_n$ where the probability of a permutation $\pi$ is proportional to $q^{l(\pi)}$ with $q > 0$ being a parameter and $l(\pi)$ the number of inversions in $\pi$. We show the convergence of the…

Let $\Sigma \subset \mathbb{C}$ be a compact subset of the complex plane, and $\mu$ be a probability distribution on $\Sigma$. We give necessary and sufficient conditions for $\mu$ to be the weak* limit of a sequence of uniform probability…

Consider the random matrix $\Sigma = D^{1/2} X \widetilde D^{1/2}$ where $D$ and $\widetilde D$ are deterministic Hermitian nonnegative matrices with respective dimensions $N \times N$ and $n \times n$, and where $X$ is a random matrix with…

We study how the inversion statistic is influenced by fixed points in a permutation. %The expected number of inversions in a uniformly random permutation in $S_n$ is $\frac{n(n-1)}4$. For each $n\in\mathbb{N}$, and each $k\in\{0,1,\cdots,…

A length-$n$ random sequence $X_1,\ldots,X_n$ in a space $S$ is finitely exchangeable if its distribution is invariant under all $n!$ permutations of coordinates. Given $N > n$, we study the extendibility problem: when is it the case that…

We introduce a rather natural family of non-uniform distributions on $PF_n$, $n\in\mathbb{N}$, the set of parking functions of length $n$. One of the motivations for this comes from a similar situation in the context of integer partitions.…

We consider uniform random permutations in proper substitution-closed classes and study their limiting behavior in the sense of permutons. The limit depends on the generating series of the simple permutations in the class. Under a mild…

The Mallows measure on the symmetric group $S_n$ is the probability measure such that each permutation has probability proportional to $q$ raised to the power of the number of inversions, where $q$ is a positive parameter and the number of…

Let $\Gamma $ be an infinite discrete group and $\mathsf{A}\subset \Gamma $ a nonempty finite subset. The set of permutations $\sigma $ of $\Gamma $ such that $s^{-1}\sigma (s)\in \mathsf{A}$ for every $s\in \Gamma $ can be identified with…

A sequence $\pi_1,\pi_2,\dots$ of permutations is said to be "quasirandom" if the induced density of every permutation $\sigma$ in $\pi_n$ converges to $1/|\sigma|!$ as $n\to\infty$. We prove that $\pi_1,\pi_2,\dots$ is quasirandom if and…

Random integers, sampled uniformly from $[1,x]$, share similarities with random permutations, sampled uniformly from $S_n$. These similarities include the Erd\H{o}s--Kac theorem on the distribution of the number of prime factors of a random…

For $\alpha>0$ and $\sigma > 0$, we consider the following probability distribution on $\alpha\mathbb N_0$: $\pi_{\alpha,\sigma} = \exp \big(- \frac{\sigma}{{\alpha}^2}\big) \sum_{n=0}^{\infty} \frac{1}{n!}…

An infinite permutation is a linear ordering of the set of natural numbers. An infinite permutation can be defined by a sequence of real numbers where only the order of elements is taken into account. In the paper we investigate a new class…

We prove that permutations with few inversions exhibit a local-global dichotomy in the following sense. Suppose ${\boldsymbol\sigma}$ is a permutation chosen uniformly at random from the set of all permutations of $[n]$ with exactly…

We consider Gibbs distributions on permutations of a locally finite infinite set $X\subset\mathbb{R}$, where a permutation $\sigma$ of $X$ is assigned (formal) energy $\sum_{x\in X}V(\sigma(x)-x)$. This is motivated by Feynman's path…

Let $\mathcal{I}$ be an analytic P-ideal [respectively, a summable ideal] on the positive integers and let $(x_n)$ be a sequence taking values in a metric space $X$. First, it is shown that the set of ideal limit points of $(x_n)$ is an…

This paper develops an analogy between the cycle structure of, on the one hand, random permutations with cycle lengths restricted to lie in an infinite set $S$ with asymptotic density $\sigma$ and, on the other hand, permutations selected…

A uniformly continuously integrable sequence of real-valued measurable functions, defined on some probability space, is relatively compact in the $\sigma(L^1,L^\infty)$ topology. In this paper, we link such a result to weak convergence…

For each $n$, let $A_n=(\sigma_{ij})$ be an $n\times n$ deterministic matrix and let $X_n=(X_{ij})$ be an $n\times n$ random matrix with i.i.d. centered entries of unit variance. We study the asymptotic behavior of the empirical spectral…
