We study the rank of the random $n\times m$ 0/1 matrix ${\bf A}_{n,m;k}$ where each column is chosen independently from the set $\Omega_{n,k}$ of 0/1 vectors with exactly $k$ 1's. Here 0/1 are the elements of the field $GF_2$. We obtain an…
Let $k \ge 2$ and $\alpha_1, \beta_1, ..., \alpha_k, \beta_k$ be reals such that the $\alpha_i$'s are irrational and greater than 1. Suppose further that some ratio $\alpha_i/\alpha_j$ is irrational. We study the representations of an…
We investigate the eigenvalue statistics of random Bernoulli matrices, where the matrix elements are chosen independently from a binary set with equal probability. This is achieved by initiating a discrete random walk process over the space…
We show that in the point process limit of the bulk eigenvalues of $\beta$-ensembles of random matrices, the probability of having no eigenvalue in a fixed interval of size $\lambda$ is given by \[\bigl(\…
A "mysterious" relation between the number variance and the variance of the $L$-th ordered eigenvalue, first suggested by French et al. [Ann. Phys. 113, 277 (1978)], is revisited and proven to be asymptotically exact for the $\beta=2$ Dyson…
In this paper, we study the effect of sparsity on the appearance of outliers in the semi-circular law. Let $(W_n)_{n=1}^\infty$ be a sequence of random symmetric matrices such that each $W_n$ is $n\times n$ with i.i.d entries above and on…
For $p \in (0,1)$, sample a binary sequence from the infinite product measure of Bernoulli$(p)$ distributions. It is known that for $p=1/2$, almost every binary sequence is Poisson generic in the sense of Peres and Weiss, a property that…
Let $0 < p < 2$. Let $\{X, X_{n}; n \geq 1\}$ be a sequence of independent and identically distributed $\mathbf{B}$-valued random variables and set $S_{n} = \sum_{i=1}^{n}X_{i},~n \geq 1$. In this paper, a supplement to the classical laws…
The notion of `stable rank' of a matrix is central to the analysis of randomized matrix algorithms, covariance estimation, deep neural networks, and recommender systems. We compare the properties of the stable rank and intrinsic dimension…
By using one of the definitions of the Bernoulli numbers, we prove that they solve particular odd and even lower triangular Toeplitz (l.t.T.) systems of equations. In a paper Ramanujan writes down a sparse lower triangular system solved by…
An n\times n matrix M is called a fooling-set matrix of size n, if its diagonal entries are nonzero, whereas for every k\ne \ell we have M_{k,\ell} M_{\ell,k} = 0. Dietzfelbinger, Hromkovi\v{c}, and Schnitger (1996) showed that n \le (\rk…
For an $n$-bit positive integer $a$ written in binary as $$ a = \sum_{j=0}^{n-1} \varepsilon_{j}(a) \,2^j $$ where, $\varepsilon_j(a) \in \{0,1\}$, $j\in\{0, \ldots, n-1\}$, $\varepsilon_{n-1}(a)=1$, let us define $$ \overleftarrow{a} =…
The Bernoulli Factory is an algorithm that takes as input a series of i.i.d. Bernoulli random variables with an unknown but fixed success probability $p$, and outputs a corresponding series of Bernoulli random variables with success…
Many real-world data sets are sparse or almost sparse. One method to measure this for a matrix $A\in \mathbb{R}^{n\times n}$ is the \emph{numerical sparsity}, denoted $\mathsf{ns}(A)$, defined as the minimum $k\geq 1$ such that…
In this paper, an information theoretic analysis on non-adaptive group testing schemes based on sparse pooling graphs is presented. The binary status of the objects to be tested are modeled by i.i.d. Bernoulli random variables with…
For positive integers $\alpha$ and $\beta$, we define an $(\alpha,\beta)$-walk to be any sequence of positive integers satisfying $w_{k+2}=\alpha w_{k+1}+\beta w_k$. We say that an $(\alpha,\beta)$-walk is $n$-slow if $w_s=n$ with $s$ as…
For n>=1 let X_n be a vector of n independent Bernoulli random variables. We assume that X_n consists of M "blocks" such that the Bernoulli random variables in block i have success probability p_i. Here M does not depend on n and the size…
A sparse generic matrix is a matrix whose entries are distinct variables and zeros. Such matrices were studied by Giusti and Merle who computed some invariants of their ideals of maximal minors. In this paper we extend these results by…
Say $X_1,X_2,\ldots$ are independent identically distributed Bernoulli random variables with mean $p$. This paper builds a new estimate $\hat p$ of $p$ that has the property that the relative error, $\hat p /p - 1$, of the estimate does not…
