In this paper we investigate a sequence of square integrable random processes with space varying memory. We establish sufficient conditions for the central limit theorem in the space $L^2(\mu)$ for the partial sums of the sequence of random…

In the paper we provide measure estimates for the set of numbers whose sequence of products of continued fraction partial quotients $M_n = a_1 \ldots a_n$ has exponential growth with rate close to the one predicted by Khintchine's theorem,…

Intermittency, measured as log(F(r)/3), where F(r) is the flatness of velocity increments at scale r, is found to rapidly increase as viscous effects intensify, and eventually saturate at very small scales. This feature defines a finite…

We introduce a fractional variant of the Cahn-Hilliard equation settled in a bounded domain $\Omega$ of $R^N$ and complemented with homogeneous Dirichlet boundary conditions of solid type (i.e., imposed in the entire complement of…

The extremes of a stationary time series typically occur in clusters. A primary measure for this phenomenon is the extremal index, representing the reciprocal of the expected cluster size. Both a disjoint and a sliding blocks estimator for…

Consider a finite sample from an unknown distribution over a countable alphabet. Unobserved events are alphabet symbols which do not appear in the sample. Estimating the probabilities of unobserved events is a basic problem in statistics…

We discuss an approach to compute the first and second moments of the number of eigenvalues $I_N$ that lie in an arbitrary interval of the real line for $N \times N$ Gaussian random matrices. The method combines the standard…

Let $p_n$ denote the $n$th smallest prime number, and let $\boldsymbol{L}$ denote the set of limit points of the sequence $\{(p_{n+1} - p_n)/\log p_n\}_{n = 1}^{\infty}$ of normalized differences between consecutive primes. We show that for…

A classical problem in number theory is showing that the mean value of an arithmetic function is asymptotic to its mean value over a short interval or over an arithmetic progression, with the interval as short as possible or the modulus as…

We study estimation, pointwise and simultaneous inference, and confidence intervals for many average partial effects of lasso Logit. Focusing on high-dimensional, cluster-sampling environments, we propose a new average partial effect…

We numerically estimate the leading asymptotic behavior of the length $L_{n}$ of the longest increasing subsequence of random walks with step increments following Student's $t$-distribution with parameter in the range $1/2 \leq \nu \leq 5$.…

The longest stretch $L(n)$ of consecutive heads in $n$ i.i.d. coin tosses is seen from the prism of large deviations. We first establish precise asymptotics for the moment generating function of $L(n)$ and then show that there are precisely…

Let $X_1,X_2,\ldots$ be a centred sequence of weakly stationary random variables with spectral measure $F$ and partial sums $S_n=X_1+\cdots+X_n$. We show that $\operatorname {var}(S_n)$ is regularly varying of index $\gamma$ at infinity, if…

In this work we present concentration inequalities for the sum $S_n$ of independent integer-valued not necessary indentically distributed random variables, where each variable has tail function that can be bounded by some power function…

In this paper we present the theory of lacunary trigonometric sums and lacunary sums of dilated functions, from the origins of the subject up to recent developments. We describe the connections with mathematical topics such as…

We study problems on covering $[0,1)$ by shrinking intervals centered at the points $\{q_n x\}$, where $(q_n)_{n\in \mathbb{N}}$ is a given real-valued sequence and $x \in [0,1)$ is random. For real-valued lacunary sequences…

Let $X$ be a random walk on the torus of side length $N$ in dimension $d\geq 3$ with uniform starting point, and $t_{\text{cov}}$ be the expected value of its cover time, which is the first time that $X$ has visited every vertex of the…

We deal with a real valued integral operator L of Laplace transformation type acting between Lebesgue spaces on the semi-axis. Sufficient conditions for belonging L to Schatten type classes are obtained. Some upper asymptotic estimates for…

Let $R_{k,\ell}(N)$ be the representation function for the sum of the $k$-th power of a prime and the $\ell$-th power of a positive integer. Languasco and Zaccagnini (2017) proved an asymptotic formula for the average of $R_{1,2}(N)$ over…

By a classical principle of probability theory, sufficiently thin subsequences of general sequences of random variables behave like i.i.d.\ sequences. This observation not only explains the remarkable properties of lacunary trigonometric…
