We prove that $X^r$ follows an FID distribution if: (1) $X$ follows a free Poisson distribution without an atom at 0 and $r\in(-\infty,0]\cup[1,\infty)$; (2) $X$ follows a free Poisson distribution with an atom at 0 and $r\geq1$; (3) $X$…

The determination of the cross correlation between an $m$-sequence and its decimated sequence has been a long-standing research problem. Considering a ternary $m$-sequence of period $3^{3r}-1$, we determine the cross correlation…

Assume that there is a set of monic polynomials $P_n(z)$ satisfying the second-order difference equation $$ A(s) P_n(z(s+1)) + B(s) P_n(z(s)) + C(s) P_n(z(s-1)) = \lambda_n P_n(z(s)), n=0,1,2,..., N$$ where $z(s), A(s), B(s), C(s)$ are some…

We prove that in the limit when its insertion points become pairwise null-separated, the ratio of certain n-point correlation functions in N=4 SYM is equal to a supersymmetric Wilson loop on twistor space, acting in the adjoint…

A pair of probability distributions over $\{0,1\}^n$ is said to be $(k,\delta)$-wise indistinguishable if all of the size $k$ marginals are within statistical distance at most $\delta$. Previous works introduced this concept and study when…

The notion of $r$-crossing and $r$-nesting of a complete matching was introduced and a symmetry property was proved by Chen et al. [Trans. Amer. Math. Soc. 359 (2007) 1555-1575]. We consider random matchings of large size and study their…

According to the Weinstein splitting theorem, any Poisson manifold is locally, near any given point, a product of a symplectic manifold with another Poisson manifold whose Poisson structure vanishes at the point. Similar splitting results…

We show that the sequence of integers which have nearly the typical number of distinct prime factors forms a Poisson process. More precisely, for $\de$ arbitrarily small and positive, the nearest neighbor spacings between integers $n$ with…

The Poisson distribution of order $k$ is a special case of a compound Poisson distribution. Its mean and variance are known, but results for its median and mode are difficult to obtain, although a few cases have been solved and upper/lower…

We present a novel reshuffling exchange model and investigate its long time behavior. In this model, two individuals are picked randomly, and their wealth $X_i$ and $X_j$ are redistributed by flipping a sequence of fair coins leading to a…

In this paper, we study the distribution of the boundary points of expansion. As an application, we say something about the lonely runner problem. We show that given $k$ runners $\mathcal{S}_i$ round a unit circular track with the condition…

Given a sequence \xi_1, \xi_2,... of X-valued, exchangeable random elements, let q(\xi^(n)) and p_m(\xi^(n)) stand for posterior and predictive distribution, respectively, given \xi^(n) = (\xi_1,..., \xi_n). We provide an upper bound for…

The idea behind Poisson approximation to the binomial distribution was used in [J. de la Cal, F. Luquin, J. Approx. Theory, 68(3), 1992, 322-329] and subsequent papers in order to establish the convergence of suitable sequences of positive…

Let $ \{X, X_{k,i}; i \geq 1, k \geq 1 \}$ be a double array of nondegenerate i.i.d. random variables and let $\{p_{n}; n \geq 1 \}$ be a sequence of positive integers such that $n/p_{n}$ is bounded away from $0$ and $\infty$. This paper is…

The paper that is commented by Touchette contains a computational study which opens the door to a desirable generalization of the standard large deviation theory (applicable to a set of $N$ nearly independent random variables) to systems…

A well known theorem due to Koksma states that for Lebesgue almost every $x>1$ the sequence $(x^n)_{n=1}^{\infty}$ is uniformly distributed modulo one. In this paper we give sufficient conditions for an analogue of this theorem to hold for…

Consider the random quadratic form $T_n=\sum_{1 \leq u < v \leq n} a_{uv} X_u X_v$, where $((a_{uv}))_{1 \leq u, v \leq n}$ is a $\{0, 1\}$-valued symmetric matrix with zeros on the diagonal, and $X_1,$ $X_2, \ldots, X_n$ are i.i.d.…

For $0<q\le 2,\ 1\le k < n,$ let $X=(X_1,...,X_n)$ and $Y=(Y_1,...,Y_n)$ be symmetric $q$-stable random vectors so that the joint distributions of $X_1,...,X_k$ and $X_{k+1},...,X_n$ are equal to the joint distributions of $Y_1,...,Y_k$ and…

It has been argued that the bosonic sectors of supersymmetric SU(N) Yang-Mills theory, and of QCD with a single fermion in the antisymmetric (or symmetric) tensor representation, are equivalent in the $N\to\infty$ limit. If true, this…

Using techniques from Poisson approximation, we prove explicit error bounds on the number of permutations that avoid any pattern. Most generally, we bound the total variation distance between the joint distribution of pattern occurrences…
