We extend the concept of the law of a finite graph to graphings, which are, in general, infinite graphs whose vertices are equipped with the structure of a probability space. By doing this, we obtain a vast array of new unimodular measures.…
Random packings of objects of a particular shape are ubiquitous in science and engineering. However, such jammed matter states have eluded any systematic theoretical treatment due to the strong positional and orientational correlations…
The issue of asymmetric uncertainties resulting from fits, nonlinear propagation and systematic effects is reviewed. It is shown that, in all cases, whenever a published result is given with asymmetric uncertainties, the value of the…
We report about some results, interesting examples, problems and conjectures revolving around the parabolic Kostant partition functions, the parabolic Kostka polynomials and ``saturation'' properties of several generalizations of the…
This is an introduction to measure theory, integration and function spaces, with all the needed preliminaries included, and with some applications included as well. We first discuss some basic motivations, coming from discrete probability,…
In this review we provide an organized summary of the theoretical and computational results which are available for polymers subject to spatial or topological constraints. Because of the interdisciplinary character of the topic, we provide…
The probability distributions for charged particle numbers and their densities are derived in statistical ensembles with conservation laws. It is shown that if this limit is properly taken then the canonical and grand canonical ensembles…
We review results about the density of typical lattices in $R^n.$ They state that such density is of the order of $2^{-n}.$ We then obtain similar results for random packings in $R^n$: after taking suitably a fraction $\nu$ of a typical…
Organising the relevant literature and by letting statistical convergence play the main role in the theory of compactness, a variant of compactness called statistical compactness has been achieved. As in case of sequential compactness, one…
A survey article that presents some recent algebraic and model-theoretic results on the automorphism groups of relatively free groups of infinite rank. The topics include topological aspects, generating sets, descripition of automorpisms…
Mixture models are one of the most widely used statistical tools when dealing with data from heterogeneous populations. This paper considers the long-standing debate over finite mixture and infinite mixtures and brings the two modelling…
We characterize ultrafilter convergence and ultrafilter compactness in linearly ordered and generalized ordered topological spaces. In such spaces, and for every ultrafilter $D$, the notions of $D$-compactness and of $D$-pseudocompactness…
The law of large numbers for the empirical density for the pairs of uniformly distributed integers with a given greatest common divisor is a classic result in number theory. In this paper, we study the large deviations of the empirical…
We prove some results on the border of Ramsey theory (finite partition calculus) and model theory. Also a beginning of classification theory of finite models in undertaken.
Finite mixture models have been a very important tool for exploring complex data structures in many scientific areas, for example, economics, epidemiology, finance. In the past decade, semiparametric techniques have been popularly…
This paper encompasses the mathematical derivations of the analytic and generalized formula and recurrence relations to find out the radii of n umber of circles inscribed or packed in the plane region bounded by circular arcs (including…
We construct convergent and divergent lattices in negative curvature and give a precise asymptotic description of the behavior of their counting function.
The core arguments used in various proofs of the extremal principle and its extensions as well as in primal and dual characterizations of approximate stationarity and transversality of collections of sets are exposed, analyzed and refined,…
It is known that limit theorems for triangular arrays with identically distributed rows yields convergence of densities rather than just convergence in distribution. We show that this superconvergence result holds -- at least at points at…
We study density of rational languages under shift invariant probability measures on spaces of two-sided infinite words, which generalizes the classical notion of density studied in formal languages and automata theory. The density for a…
