The statistical physics approach to the number partioning problem, a classical NP-hard problem, is both simple and rewarding. Very basic notions and methods from statistical mechanics are enough to obtain analytical results for the phase…
We develop two complementary generative mechanisms that explain when and why Benford's first-digit law arises. First, a probabilistic Turing machine (PTM) ensemble induces a geometric law for codelength. Maximizing its entropy under a…
For any partition of $\{1, 2, ..., n\}$ we define its {\it increments} $X_i, 1 \le i \le n$ by $X_i = 1$ if $i$ is the smallest element in the partition block that contains it, $X_i = 0$ otherwise. We prove that for partially exchangeable…
Let $r=r(n)$ be a sequence of integers such that $r\leq n$ and let $X_1,\ldots,X_{r+1}$ be independent random points distributed according to the Gaussian, the Beta or the spherical distribution on $\mathbb{R}^n$. Limit theorems for the…
We prove a quantitative local limit theorem for the number of descents in a random permutation. Our proof uses a conditioning argument and is based on bounding the characteristic function $\phi(t)$ of the number of descents. We also…
In this article, we consider two models of directed polymers in random environment: a discrete model and a continuous model. We consider these models in dimension greater or equal to 3 and we suppose that the normalized partition function…
A new proposal for a Lorentz-invariant spontaneous localization theory is presented. It is based on the choice of a suitable set of macroscopic quantities to be stochastically induced to have definite values. Such macroscopic quantities…
Exponentiation makes the difference between the bit-size of this line and the number (<< 2^{300}) of particles in the known Universe. The expulsion of exponential time algorithms from Computer Theory in the 60's broke its umbilical cord…
While topology given by a linear order has been extensively studied, this cannot be said about the case when the order is given only locally. The aim of this paper is to fill this gap. We consider relation between local orderability and…
This paper concerns random bipartite planar maps which are defined by assigning weights to their faces. The paper presents a threefold contribution to the theory. Firstly, we prove the existence of the local limit for all choices of weights…
We consider a generalisation of the classical Lehmer problem about the parity distribution of an integer and its modular inverse. We use some known estimates of exponential sums to study a more general question of simultaneous distribution…
We classify the subsets of a group by their sizes, formalize the basic methods of partitions and apply them to partition a group to subsets of prescribed sizes.
Relaxation theorems for multiple integrals on W^{1,p}(\Omega;\RR^m), where p\in]1,\infty[, are proved under general conditions on the integrand L:\MM\to[0,\infty] which is Borel measurable and not necessarily finite. We involve a…
Locally recoverable (LRC) codes have recently been a focus point of research in coding theory due to their theoretical appeal and applications in distributed storage systems. In an LRC code, any erased symbol of a codeword can be recovered…
The polynomial multiplication problem has attracted considerable attention since the early days of computer algebra, and several algorithms have been designed to achieve the best possible time complexity. More recently, efforts have been…
An important conjecture in additive combinatorics, number theory, and algebraic geometry posits that the partition rank and analytic rank of tensors are equal up to a constant, over any finite field. We prove the conjecture up to a…
Let $a > 1$. Then $a^n < n!$ for some positive integer $n$. There are several numerical sequences associated with the study of the smallest such integer which are studied in \cite{RadFact} and \cite{RadGamma}. Here we continue the…
In the quantum theory, using the notion of partial supersymmetry, in which some, but not all, operators have superpartners we derive the Euler theorem in partition theory. The paraferminic partition function gives another identity in…
Standard approaches to probabilistic reasoning require that one possesses an explicit model of the distribution in question. But, the empirical learning of models of probability distributions from partial observations is a problem for which…
For $n$ and $k$ integers we introduce the notion of some partition of $n$ being able to generate another partition of $n$. We solve the problem of finding the minimum size partition for which the set of partitions this partition can…
