In this note, we are interested in obtaining uniform upper bounds for the number of powerful numbers in short intervals $(x, x + y]$. We obtain unconditional upper bounds $O(\frac{y}{\log y})$ and $O(y^{11/12})$ for all powerful numbers and…

The multi-terminal rate-distortion problem has been studied extensively. Notably, among these, Tung and Housewright have provided the best known inner and outer bounds for the rate region under certain distortion constraints. In this paper,…

Let {S_n, n=0,1,2,...} be a random walk generated by a sequence of i.i.d. random variables X_1, X_2,... and let tau be the first descending ladder epoch. Assuming that the distribution of X_1 belongs to the domain of attraction of an…

Let $f(n)$ be a random completely multiplicative function such that $f(p) = \pm 1$ with probabilities $1/2$ independently at each prime. We study the conditional probability, given that $f(p) = 1$ for all $p < y$, that all partial sums of…

We consider renewal-type processes whose positive inter-renewal times may be dependent, non-identically distributed, and may have mixed distributions. We introduce a generalised intensity measure extending the classical hazard-rate…

Let $X=\{X_{t},t\in R_{+}\}$ be a symmetric L\'{e}vy process with local time $\{L^{x}_{t} ; (x,t)\in R^{1}\times R^{1}_{+}\}$. When the L\'{e}vy exponent $\psi(\la)$ is regularly varying at zero with index $1<\beta\leq 2$, and satisfies…

We give a complete expansion, at any accuracy order, for the iterated convolution of a complex valued integrable sequence in one space dimension. The remainders are estimated sharply with generalized Gaussian bounds. The result applies in…

Random matrices from the elliptic Ginibre orthogonal ensemble (GinOE) are a certain linear combination of a real symmetric, and real anti-symmetric, real Gaussian random matrices and controlled by a parameter $\tau$. Our interest is in the…

Limit theorems for non-additive probabilities or non-linear expectations are challenging issues which have raised progressive interest recently. The purpose of this paper is to study the strong law of large numbers and the law of the…

One says that the local large deviation principle (LLDP) is satisfied for a family of random vectors $\{\zeta_T\}_{T\ge 0}$ in $\mathbb R^d,$ $d\ge 1,$ if there exists a function $D:\mathbb R^d\to [0,\infty],$ $D\not \equiv \infty,$ such…

We study the problem of bounding the posterior distribution of discrete probabilistic programs with unbounded support, loops, and conditioning. Loops pose the main difficulty in this setting: even if exact Bayesian inference is possible,…

Let $G$ be a group with a non-elementary action on a proper CAT(0) space $X$, and let $\mu$ be a measure on $G$ such that the random walk $(Z_n)_n$ generated by $\mu$ has finite second moment on $X$. Let $o$ be a basepoint in $X$, and…

This paper introduces a new concept of stochastic dependence among many random variables which we call conditional neighborhood dependence (CND). Suppose that there are a set of random variables and a set of sigma algebras where both sets…

We consider $N\times N$ non-Hermitian random matrices of the form $X+A$, where $A$ is a general deterministic matrix and $\sqrt{N}X$ consists of independent entries with zero mean, unit variance, and bounded densities. For this ensemble, we…

We study the derivative nonlinear wave equation \( - \partial_{tt} u + \Delta u = |\nabla u|^2 \) on \( \mathbb{R}^{1+3} \). The deterministic theory is determined by the Lorentz-critical regularity \( s_L = 2 \), and both local…

Let $X$ be the constrained random walk on ${\mathbb Z}_+^2$ having increments $(1,0)$, $(-1,1)$, $(0,-1)$ with jump probabilities $\lambda(M_k)$, $\mu_1(M_k)$, and $\mu_2(M_k)$ where $M$ is an irreducible aperiodic finite state Markov…

A central limit theorem is proved for some strictly stationary sequences of random variables that satisfy certain mixing conditions and are subjected to the "shrinking operators" $U_r(x):=[\max\{|x|-r,0\}]\cdot x/|x|,\ r \ge 0$. For…

Let $\{X_n\}$ be a stationary and ergodic time series taking values from a finite or countably infinite set ${\cal X}$. Assume that the distribution of the process is otherwise unknown. We propose a sequence of stopping times $\lambda_n$…
