If X is a CW complex, one can assign to each point of X an ordered abelian group of finite rank whose subset of positive elements depends continuously on the points of X. A locally trivial bundle which arises in this way we denote by E(X).…

One of the most widely used properties of the multivariate Gaussian distribution, besides its tail behavior, is the fact that conditional means are linear and that conditional variances are constant. We here show that this property is also…

A.M. Kagan introduced a class of distributions $\mathcal{D}_{m, k}$ in $\mathbb{R}^m$ and proved that if the joint distribution of $m$ linear forms of $n$ independent random variables belongs to the class $\mathcal{D}_{m, m-1}$, then the…

In conventional gauge theory, a charged point particle is described by a representation of the gauge group. If we propagate the particle along some path, the parallel transport of the gauge connection acts on this representation. The…

Conditional independence models in the Gaussian case are algebraic varieties in the cone of positive definite covariance matrices. We study these varieties in the case of Bayesian networks, with a view towards generalizing the recursive…

A class of 2x2 random-matrix models is introduced for which the Brody distribution is the exact eigenvalue spacing distribution. The matrix elements consist of constrained finite sums of an exponential random variable raised to various…

The densities of small linear structures (such as arithmetic progressions) in subsets of Abelian groups can be expressed as certain analytic averages involving linear forms. Higher-order Fourier analysis examines such averages by…

I discuss a family of statistical-mechanics models in which (some classes of) elements of a finite group $G$ occupy the (directed) edges of a lattice; the product around any plaquette is constrained to be the group identity $e$. Such a…

We show that for arbitrary linearly ordered set $X$ any bounded family of (not necessarily, continuous) real valued functions on $X$ with bounded total variation does not contain independent sequences. We obtain generalized Helly's…

We analyse the fusion, braiding and scattering properties of discrete non-abelian anyons. These occur in (2+1)-dimensional theories where a gauge group G is spontaneously broken down to some discrete subgroup H. We identify the…
