In this paper, we study the expected value of the pair correlation statistics of randomized point configurations on the sphere, with the emphasis on point configurations generated by determinantal point processes. We study the cases of the…
A many-server queueing system is considered in which customers arrive according to a renewal process and have service and patience times that are drawn from two independent sequences of independent, identically distributed random variables.…
We consider the problem of closeness testing for two discrete distributions in the practically relevant setting of \emph{unequal} sized samples drawn from each of them. Specifically, given a target error parameter $\varepsilon > 0$, $m_1$…
Given a set of discrete probability distributions, the minimum entropy coupling is the minimum entropy joint distribution that has the input distributions as its marginals. This has immediate relevance to tasks such as entropic causal…
Given b>0, integers n, m=bn and a probability measure Q on {0, 1,..., m}, consider the random intersection graph on the vertex set [n]={1, ..., n}, where i and j are declared adjacent whenever S(i) and S(j) intersect. Here S(1), ..., S(n)…
This paper presents results on the typical number of simultaneous point-to-point transmissions above a minimum rate that can be sustained in a network with $n$ transmitter-receiver node pairs when all transmitting nodes can potentially…
We develop a unified approach to the problem of clustering in the three different fields of applications, as indicated in the title the paper. The approach is based on Khintchine's probabilistic method that grew out of the Darwin-Fawler…
We introduce a sieve for counting twin primes up to a given range. Our method depends on a parameter ${\lambda}_x$ and the estimation of the number of twin primes obtained as a result, is called a fundamental structure of the distribution…
In this paper continuity theorems are established for the number of losses during a busy period of the $M/M/1/n$ queue. We consider an $M/GI/1/n$ queueing system where the service time probability distribution, slightly different in a…
In the 1960s Moser asked how dense a subset of $\mathbb{R}^d$ can be if no pairs of points in the subset are exactly distance 1 apart. There has been a long line of work showing upper bounds on this density. One curious feature of dense…
We study the signal percolation through heart-like biological system. Starting from an initial distribution of waiting and inactive cells with probabilities $p$ and $(1-p)$ respectively, the signal propagation is observed in terms of active…
Consider the geometric graph on $n$ independent uniform random points in a connected compact region $A$ of ${\bf R}^d, d \geq 2$, with $C^2$ boundary, or in the unit square, with distance parameter $r_n$. Let $K_n$ be the number of…
We show that an analogy between crowding in fluid and jammed phases of hard spheres captures the density dependence of the kissing number for a family of numerically generated jammed states. We extend this analogy to jams of mixtures of…
Reconstructing the structural connectivity between interacting units from observed activity is a challenge across many different disciplines. The fundamental first step is to establish whether or to what extent the interactions between the…
We show that a coupling of non-colliding simple random walkers on the complete graph on $n$ vertices can include at most $n - \log n$ walkers. This improves the only previously known upper bound of $n-2$ due to Angel, Holroyd, Martin,…
In this note we study the {\em asymptotic popularity}, that is, the limit probability to find a given consecutive pattern at a random position in a random permutation in the eighteen classes of permutations avoiding at least two length 3…
This paper studies the asymptotic behaviors of the pairwise angles among n randomly and uniformly distributed unit vectors in R^p as the number of points n -> infinity, while the dimension p is either fixed or growing with n. For both…
A general theory for the condensation of strongly bound quartets in infinite nuclear matter is presented. Critical temperatures for symmetric and asymmetric nuclear matter are evaluated. A fully nonlinear theory for the quartet order…
We study a single server FIFO queue that offers general service. Each of n customers enter the queue at random time epochs that are inde- pendent and identically distributed. We call this the random scattering traffic model, and the…
A common assumption when modeling queuing systems is that arrivals behave like a Poisson process with constant parameter. In practice, however, call arrivals are often observed to be significantly overdispersed. This motivates that in this…
