Solving linear systems of equations is a fundamental problem in mathematics. When the linear system is so large that it cannot be loaded into memory at once, iterative methods such as the randomized Kaczmarz method excel. Here, we extend…
In this paper, we study the limiting distribution of the eigenvalues for random tridiagonal matrix models. The limiting distribution is well described by its moments. Here, an analytical approach allows us, as in the case of Wigner…

Under certain conditions, a symmetric unimodal continuous random variable $\xi$ can be represented as a scale mixture of the standard Normal distribution $Z$, i.e., $\xi = \sqrt{W} Z$, where the mixing distribution $W$ is independent of…
Compound distributions allow construction of a rich set of distributions. Typically they involve an intractable integral. Here we use a quadrature approximation to that integral to define the quadrature compound family. Special care is…
We provide a complete description of the angular distribution of gluons in a medium-induced QCD cascade. We identify two components in the distribution, a soft component dominated by soft multiple scatterings, and a hard component dominated…
Graph matrices are a type of matrix which has played a crucial role in analyzing the sum of squares hierarchy on average case problems. However, except for rough norm bounds, little is known about graph matrices. In this paper, we take a…
In parameter estimation problems one computes a posterior distribution over uncertain parameters defined jointly by a prior distribution, a model, and noisy data. Markov Chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) is often used for the numerical solution of…
The recently derived distributions for the scattering-matrix elements in quantum chaotic systems are not accessible in the majority of experiments, whereas the cross sections are. We analytically compute distributions for the off-diagonal…
