Let X be the wonderful compactification of a connected adjoint semisimple group G defined over a number field K. We prove Manin's conjecture on the asymptotic (as T\to \infty) of the number of K-rational points of X of height less than T,…

We identify a surprising inequality satisfied by elementary symmetric polynomials under the action of the fixed point measure of a random permutation. Concretely, for any collection of $n$ non-negative real numbers $a_1, \dots, a_n \in…

We study the 'critical moments' of subcritical Gaussian multiplicative chaos (GMCs) in dimensions $d \leq 2$. In particular, we establish a fully explicit formula for the leading order asymptotics, which is closely related to large…

We prove an analogue of the portmanteau theorem on weak convergence of probability measures allowing measures which are unbounded on an underlying metric space but finite on the complement of any Borel neighbourhood of a fixed element.

Monier and Rabin proved that an odd composite can pass the Strong Probable Prime Test for at most $\frac 14$ of the possible bases. In this paper, a probable prime test is developed using quadratic polynomials and the Frobenius…

We show that the zeros of random sequences of Gaussian systems of polynomials of increasing degree almost surely converge to the expected limit distribution under very general hypotheses. In particular, the normalized distribution of zeros…

In this paper we study the asymptotic behavior of the maximum magnitude of a complex random polynomial with i.i.d. uniformly distributed random roots on the unit circle. More specifically, let $\{n_k\}_{k=1}^{\infty}$ be an infinite…

We associate to an $N$-sample of a given rotationally invariant probability measure $\mu_0$ with compact support in the complex plane, a polynomial $P_N$ with roots given by the sample. Then, for $t \in (0,1)$, we consider the empirical…

Let $X$ be the constrained random walk on $\mathbb{Z}_+^d$ $d >2$, having increments $e_1$, $-e_i+e_{i+1}$ $i=1,2,3,...,d-1$ and $-e_d$ with probabilities $\lambda$, $\mu_1$, $\mu_2$,...,$\mu_d$, where $\{e_1,e_2,..,e_d\}$ are the standard…

Let $X_N$ be an $N\ts N$ random symmetric matrix with independent equidistributed entries. If the law $P$ of the entries has a finite second moment, it was shown by Wigner \cite{wigner} that the empirical distribution of the eigenvalues of…

Let $T \colon M \to M$ be a nonuniformly expanding dynamical system, such as logistic or intermittent map. Let $v \colon M \to \mathbb{R}^d$ be an observable and $v_n = \sum_{k=0}^{n-1} v \circ T^k$ denote the Birkhoff sums. Given a…

Plausibility measures are structures for reasoning in the face of uncertainty that generalize probabilities, unifying them with weaker structures like possibility measures and comparative probability relations. So far, the theory of…

We prove in a direct fashion that a multidimensional probability measure is determinate if the higher dimensional analogue of Carleman's condition is satisfied. In that case, the polynomials, as well as certain proper subspaces of the…

In this paper, we construct a class of random measures $\mu^{\mathbf{n}}$ by infinite convolutions. Given infinitely many admissible pairs $\{(N_{k}, B_{k})\}_{k=1}^{\infty}$ and a positive integral sequence…

Consider critical Bernoulli percolation on $\mathbb{Z}^d$ for $d$ large; let $y_0, \dots, y_{k-1}$ be $k$ distinct points in $\mathbb{R}^d$. We prove that the probability that $\{\lfloor n y_i\rfloor\}_{i=0}^{k-1}$ all lie in the same open…

In this paper, we obtain new results on the critical points of a polynomial, these results are useful to the Sendov conjecture.

We show that the continuum hypothesis implies that every measure preserving near-action of a group on a standard Borel probability space $(X,\mu)$ has a pointwise implementation by Borel measure preserving automorphisms.

We consider the minimal distance between orbits of measure preserving dynamical systems. In the spirit of dynamical shrinking target problems we identify distance rates for which almost sure asymptotic closeness properties can be ensured.…

This paper proves that, under a monotonicity condition, the invariant probability measure of a McKean--Vlasov process can be approximated by weighted empirical measures of some processes including itself. These processes are described by…

Let $\mu_N$ be the empirical measure associated to a $N$-sample of a given probability distribution $\mu$ on $\mathbb{R}^d$. We are interested in the rate of convergence of $\mu_N$ to $\mu$, when measured in the Wasserstein distance of…
