Consider the family of power divergence statistics based on $n$ trials, each leading to one of $r$ possible outcomes. This includes the log-likelihood ratio and Pearson's statistic as important special cases. It is known that in certain…
In 2001, J.-M. Le Bars disproved the zero-one law (that says that every sentence from a certain logic is either true asymptotically almost surely (a.a.s.), or false a.a.s.) for existential monadic second order sentences (EMSO) about…
The main theme of this paper is the enumeration of the occurrence of a pattern in words and permutations. We mainly focus on asymptotic properties of the sequence $f_r^v(k,n),$ the number of $n$-array $k$-ary words that contain a given…
This article introduces three invariance principles under which P is different from NP. In the second part a theorem of convergence is proven. This theorem states that for any language L there exists an infinite sequence of languages from…
We prove for Gibbs-Markov maps that the number of visits to a sequence of shrinking sets with bounded cylindrical lengths converges in distribution to a Poisson law. Applying to continued fractions, this result extends Doeblin's Poisson…
Let $X_1,\,X_2,\,\ldots,\,X_N$, $N\in\mathbb{N}$ be independent but not necessarily identically distributed discrete and integer-valued random variables. Assume that $X_1\geqslant m_1$, $X_2\geqslant m_2$, $\ldots$, $X_N\geqslant m_N$…
The asymptotic study of tuples of random non-increasing integers is crucial for probabilistic models coming from asymptotic representation theory and statistical physics. We study the global behavior of such tuples, introducing a new family…
We show that if a permutation $\pi$ contains two intervals of length 2, where one interval is an ascent and the other a descent, then the M\"{o}bius function $\mu[\pi]$ of the interval $[1,\pi]$ is zero. As a consequence, we show that the…
In this article we study a small random perturbation of a linear recurrence equation. If all the roots of its corresponding characteristic equation have modulus strictly less than one, the random linear recurrence goes exponentially fast to…
Given a countable set X (usually taken to be the natural numbers or the integers), an infinite permutation \pi of X is a linear ordering of X. This paper investigates the combinatorial complexity of the infinite permutation on the natural…
We study the error of the number of points of the lattice $\mathbb{Z}^{d}$ that fall into a dilated and translated hypercube centred around $0$ and whose axis are parallel to the axis of coordinates. We show that if $t$, the factor of…
Let $\mathbb{K}$ be a field of characteristic $0$. For each choice of distinct $a_1, \ldots, a_n\in \mathbb{K}$ and distinct $b_1, \ldots, b_n\in \mathbb{K}$, consider the sum $S=\sum_{i=1}^n a_i b_{\pi(i)}$ as $\pi$ ranges over the…
Let $\pi$ be a permutation of $[n]=\{1,\dots,n\}$ and denote by $\ell(\pi)$ the length of a longest increasing subsequence of $\pi$. Let $\ell_{n,k}$ be the number of permutations $\pi$ of $[n]$ with $\ell(\pi)=k$. Chen conjectured that the…
We study the formula complexity of the word problem $\mathsf{Word}_{S_n,k} : \{0,1\}^{kn^2} \to \{0,1\}$: given $n$-by-$n$ permutation matrices $M_1,\dots,M_k$, compute the $(1,1)$-entry of the matrix product $M_1\cdots M_k$. An important…
We derive a necessary and sufficient condition for the sum of M independent continuous random variables modulo 1 to converge to the uniform distribution in L^1([0,1]), and discuss generalizations to discrete random variables. A consequence…
In this paper we develop tools for studying limit theorems by means of convexity. We establish bounds for the discrepancy in total variation between probability measures $\mu$ and $\nu$ such that $\nu$ is log-concave with respect to $\mu$.…
Let us consider i.i.d. random variables $\{a_k,b_k\}_{k \geq 1}$ defined on a common probability space $(\Omega, \mathcal F, \mathbb P)$, following a symmetric Rademacher distribution and the associated random trigonometric polynomials…
A binary matrix satisfies the consecutive ones property (COP) if its columns can be permuted such that the ones in each row of the resulting matrix are consecutive. Equivalently, a family of sets F = {Q_1,..,Q_m}, where Q_i is subset of R…
We consider self-loops and multiple edges in the configuration model as the size of the graph tends to infinity. The interest in these random variables is due to the fact that the configuration model, conditioned on being simple, is a…
The maximum drop size of a permutation $\pi$ of $[n]=\{1,2,\ldots, n\}$ is defined to be the maximum value of $i-\pi(i)$. Chung, Claesson, Dukes and Graham obtained polynomials $P_k(x)$ that can be used to determine the number of…
