A formalism is presented for analytically obtaining the probability density function, (P_{n}(s)), for the random distance (s) between two random points in an (n)-dimensional spherical object of radius (R). Our formalism allows (P_{n}(s)) to…

Granular segregation is ubiquitous in industrial, geological or daily-life context, but there is still no unifying theoretical approach. In this review, we examine two examples of granular segregation -- shallow rapid flows and rotating…

We address the problem of one dimensional segment detection and estimation, in a regression setup. At each point of a fixed or random design, one observes whether that point belongs to the unknown segment or not, up to some additional…

The wide availability of biological data at the genome-scale and across multiple variables has resulted in statistical questions regarding the enrichment or depletion of the number of discrete objects (e.g. genes) identified in individual…

A generalization of the random geometric graph (RGG) model is proposed by considering a set of points uniformly and independently distributed on a rectangle of unit area instead of on a unit square [0,1]^2. The topological properties of the…

We study the stochastic motion of active particles that undergo spontaneous transitions between two distinct modes of motion. Each mode is characterized by a velocity distribution and an arbitrary (anti-)persistence. We present an…

Given i.i.d samples from some unknown continuous density on hyper-rectangle $[0, 1]^d$, we attempt to learn a piecewise constant function that approximates this underlying density non-parametrically. Our density estimate is defined on a…

We consider the situation when a globally defined four-dimensional field system is separated on two entangled sub-systems by a dynamical (random) two-dimensional surface. The reduced density matrix averaged over ensemble of random surfaces…
