We show that on a totally disconnected compact metric space every separating homeomorphisms is expansive except at periodic points. We conclude that minimal separating homeomorphisms are expansive and that every separating homeomorphism has…

We prove existence of (at most denumerable many) absolutely continuous invariant probability measures for random one-dimensional dynamical systems with asymptotic expansion. If the rate of expansion (Lyapunov exponents) is bounded away from…

In this paper, we investigate the extremal values of (the logarithm of) the characteristic polynomial of a random unitary matrix whose spectrum is distributed according the Circular Beta Ensemble (C$\beta$E). More precisely, if $X_n$ is…

We consider the extremal properties of the highly flexible univariate extended skew-normal distribution. We derive the well-known Mills' inequalities and Mills' ratio for the extended skew-normal distribution and establish the asymptotic…

We study two types of probability measures on the set of integer partitions of $n$ with at most $m$ parts. The first one chooses the random partition with a chance related to its largest part only. We then obtain the limiting distributions…

We initiate the study of distribution testing for probability distributions over the edges of a graph, motivated by the closely related question of ``edge-distribution-free'' graph property testing. The main results of this paper are…

The problem of calculating the probability density and distribution function of a strictly stable law is considered at $x\to0$. The expansions of these values into power series were obtained to solve this problem. It was shown that in the…

For parameters $n,\delta,B,$ and $C$, let $X=(X_{k\ell})$ be the random uniform contingency table whose first $\lfloor n^{\delta} \rfloor $ rows and columns have margin $\lfloor BCn \rfloor$ and the last $n$ rows and columns have margin…

We show that the maximizing point and the supremum of the standardized uniform empirical process converge in distribution. Here, the limit variable (Z, Y ) has independent components. Moreover, Z attains the values zero and one with equal…

Recent work has suggested that in highly correlated systems, such as sandpiles, turbulent fluids, ignited trees in forest fires and magnetization in a ferromagnet close to a critical point, the probability distribution of a global quantity…

Uniform convergence rates are provided for asymptotic representations of sample extremes. These bounds which are universal in the sense that they do not depend on the extreme value index are meant to be extended to arbitrary samples…

We consider the high order moments estimator of the frontier of a random pair introduced by Girard, S., Guillou, A., Stupfler, G. (2012). {\it Frontier estimation with kernel regression on high order moments}. In the present paper, we show…

We consider canonical determinantal random point processes with N particles on a compact Riemann surface X defined with respect to the constant curvature metric. In the higher genus (hyperbolic) cases these point processes may be defined in…

This note displays an interesting phenomenon for percentiles of independent but non-identical random variables. Let $X_1,\cdots,X_n$ be independent random variables obeying non-identical continuous distributions and $X^{(1)}\geq \cdots\geq…

We study asymptotic distribution of zeros of random holomorphic sections of high powers of positive line bundles defined over projective homogenous manifolds. We work with a wide class of distributions that includes real and complex…

The aim of this paper is to establish several deep theoretical properties of principal component analysis for multiple-component spike covariance models. Our new results reveal a surprising asymptotic conical structure in critical sample…

We consider supercritical bond percolation in $\mathbb{Z}^d$ for $d \geq 3$. The origin lies in a finite open cluster with positive probability, and, when it does, the diameter of this cluster has an exponentially decaying tail. For each…

A pair of probability distributions over $\{0,1\}^n$ is said to be $(k,\delta)$-wise indistinguishable if all of the size $k$ marginals are within statistical distance at most $\delta$. Previous works introduced this concept and study when…

In this paper, we investigate the distribution of the maximum of partial sums of certain cubic exponential sums, commonly known as "Birch sums". Our main theorem gives upper and lower bounds (of nearly the same order of magnitude) for the…

For a homeomorphism $f$ of a compact metric space $X$ and a positive integer $n\geq 2$, we introduce the notion of $(\omega, \alpha, n)$-sensitivity of $f$, which describes such a kind of chaos: there is some $c>0$ such that for any $x\in…
