In this paper we study the eigenvalues of the laplacian matrices of the cyclic graphs with one edge of weight $\alpha$ and the others of weight $1$. We denote by $n$ the order of the graph and suppose that $n$ tends to infinity. We notice…

We consider $n\times n$ random matrices $M_{n}=\sum_{\alpha =1}^{m}{\tau _{\alpha }}\mathbf{y}_{\alpha }\otimes \mathbf{y}_{\alpha }$, where $\tau _{\alpha }\in \mathbb{R}$, $\{\mathbf{y}_{\alpha }\}_{\alpha =1}^{m}$ are i.i.d. isotropic…

Benford's law is frequently used to evaluate the likihood that data is misrepresentative. Typically statistical tests measure the likihood. Another method of employing Benford's law is to compare the frequency of leading digits to the…

We introduce a non-Hermitian $\beta$-ensemble and determine its spectral density in the limit of large $\beta$ and large matrix size $n$. The ensemble is given by a general tridiagonal complex random matrix of normal and chi-distributed…

Let $\a$ be a complex random variable with mean zero and bounded variance $\sigma^{2}$. Let $N_{n}$ be a random matrix of order $n$ with entries being i.i.d. copies of $\a$. Let $\lambda_{1}, ..., \lambda_{n}$ be the eigenvalues of…

We prove a central limit theorem (CLT) for the number of joint orbits of random tuples of commuting permutations. In the uniform sampling case this generalizes the classic CLT of Goncharov for the number of cycles of a single random…

The yearly aggregated tax income data of all, more than 8000, Italian municipalities are analyzed for a period of five years, from 2007 to 2011, to search for conformity or not with Benford's law, a counter-intuitive phenomenon observed in…

We characterize the convergence in distribution to a standard normal law for a sequence of multiple stochastic integrals of a fixed order with variance converging to 1. Some applications are given, in particular to study the limiting…

The Central Limit Theorem (CLT) establishes that sufficiently large sequences of independent and identically distributed random variables converge in probability to a normal distribution. This makes the CLT a fundamental building block of…
