Random matrix ensembles are introduced that respect the local tensor structure of Hamiltonians describing a chain of $n$ distinguishable spin-half particles with nearest-neighbour interactions. We prove a central limit theorem for the…
Let $V$ be an $n$-set, and let $X$ be a random variable taking values in the powerset of $V$. Suppose we are given a sequence of random coupons $X_1, X_2, \ldots $, where the $X_i$ are independent random variables with distribution given by…
We use computational experiments to find the rectangles of minimum perimeter into which a given number n of non-overlapping congruent circles can be packed. No assumption is made on the shape of the rectangles. In many of the packings…
We build confidence balls for the common density $s$ of a real valued sample $X_1,...,X_n$. We use resampling methods to estimate the projection of $s$ onto finite dimensional linear spaces and a model selection procedure to choose an…
We develop a theory of limits of finite posets in close analogy to the recent theory of graph limits. In particular, we study representations of the limits by functions of two variables on a probability space, and connections to…
Let $P$ be a set of $n$ random points in $R^d$, generated from a probability measure on a $m$-dimensional manifold $M \subset R^d$. In this paper we study the homology of $U(P,r)$ -- the union of $d$-dimensional balls of radius $r$ around…
We consider the distribution of cycles in two models of random permutations, that are related to one another. In the first model, cycles receive a weight that depends on their length. The second model deals with permutations of points in…
This paper studies the limits of a spatial random field generated by uniformly scattered random sets, as the density $\lambda$ of the sets grows to infinity and the mean volume $\rho$ of the sets tends to zero. Assuming that the volume…
For fixed $m>1$, we consider $m$ independent $n \times n$ non-Hermitian random matrices $X_1, ..., X_m$ with i.i.d. centered entries with a finite $(2+\eta)$-th moment, $ \eta>0.$ As $n$ tends to infinity, we show that the empirical…
The main goal of this article is to understand how the length spectrum of a random surface depends on its genus. Here a random surface means a surface obtained by randomly gluing together an even number of triangles carrying a fixed metric.…
We prove that the probability that a sum of independent random variables in $\mathbb{R}^d$ with bounded densities lies in a ball is maximized by taking uniform distributions on balls. This in turn generalizes a result by Rogozin on the…
We prove that given a fixed radius $r$, the set of isometry-invariant probability measures supported on ``periodic'' radius $r$-circle packings of the hyperbolic plane is dense in the space of all isometry-invariant probability measures on…
In this work the $\ell_q$-norms of points chosen uniformly at random in a centered regular simplex in high dimensions are studied. Berry-Esseen bounds in the regime $1\leq q < \infty$ are derived and complemented by a non-central limit…
Given a real symmetric positive semi-definite matrix E, and an approximation S that is a sum of n independent matrix-valued random variables, we present bounds on the relative error in S due to randomization. The bounds do not depend on the…
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 study the metric entropy of the metric space $B_n$ of all n-dimensional Banach spaces (the so-called Banach-Mazur compactum) equipped with the Banach-Mazur (multiplicative) "distance" $d$. We are interested either in estimates…
The goal of random sequential adsorption (RSA), a time-dependent packing method, is to create a regular or asymmetric covering of an empty space that can fit in the allocated space without overlapping. The density of coverage tends to reach…
Deterministic fabrication of random metamaterials requires filling of a space with randomly oriented and randomly positioned chords with an on-average homogenous density and orientation, which is a nontrivial task. We describe a method to…
Let $\sum_{n=1}^\infty x_n$ be a conditionally convergent series in a Banach space and let $\tau$ be a permutation of natural numbers. We study the set $\operatorname{LIM}(\sum_{n=1}^\infty x_{\tau(n)})$ of all limit points of a sequence…
For a bivariate random vector (X,Y), symmetry conditions are presented that yield stochastic orderings among |X|, |Y|, |max(X,Y)|, and | min(X, Y)|. Partial extensions of these results for multivariate random vectors (X1,...,Xn) are also…
