Consider a set of order statistics that arise from sorting samples from two different populations, each with their own, possibly different distribution function. The probability that these order statistics fall in disjoint, ordered…
This thesis details a class of partial orders on the space of probability distributions and the space of density operators which capture the idea of information content. Some links to domain theory and computational linguistics are also…
In this article the statistical properties of symmetrical random matrices whose elements are drawn from a q-parameterized non-extensive statistics power-law distribution are investigated. In the limit as q->1 the well known Gaussian…
A fundamental problem in statistics and learning theory is to test properties of distributions. We show that quantum computers can solve such problems with significant speed-ups. In particular, we give fast quantum algorithms for testing…
Along the lines of nonextensive statistical mechanics, based on the entropy $S_q = k(1- \sum_i p_i^q)/(q-1) (S_1=-k \sum_i p_i \ln p_i)$, and Beck-Cohen superstatistics, we heuristically generalize Planck's statistical law for the…
Tsallis statistics (or q-statistics) in nonextensive statistical mechanics is a one-parameter description of correlated states. In this paper we use a translated entropic index: $1 - q \to q$ . The essence of this translation is to improve…
Closed-form expressions for the distributions of the order statistics on the spacings between order statistics for the uniform distribution are obtained. This generalizes a result by Fisher concerning tests of significance in the harmonic…
We present a theory of quantum work statistics in generic chaotic, disordered Fermi liquid systems within a driven random matrix formalism. By extending P. W. Anderson's orthogonality determinant formula to compute quantum work…
The empirical rule that systems of identical particles always obey either Bose or Fermi statistics is customarily imposed on the theory by adding it to the axioms of nonrelativistic quantum mechanics, with the result that other statistical…
The standard central limit theorem plays a fundamental role in Boltzmann-Gibbs statistical mechanics. This important physical theory has been generalized \cite{Tsallis1988} in 1988 by using the entropy $S_q = \frac{1-\sum_i p_i^q}{q-1}$…
The generalized binomial distribution in Tsallis statistics (power-law system) is explicitly formulated from the precise $q$-Stirling's formula. The $\alpha $-divergence (or $q$-divergence) is uniquely derived from the generalized binomial…
We review briefly the concepts underlying complex systems and probability distributions. The later are often taken as the first quantitative characteristics of complex systems, allowing one to detect the possible occurrence of regularities…
The first part of this paper deals with unipotent and reductive groups over finite fields with $q$ elements in which either $q$ goes to infinity or $G=GL_n(q)$ and $n$ goes to infinity. The second part of the paper deals with the symmetric…
The probabilistic investigation on record values and record times of a sequence of random variables defined on the same probability space has received much attention from 1952 to now. A great deal of such theory focused on \textit{iid} or…
We consider the distribution of the (properly normalized) numbers of nodal domains of wave functions in 2-$d$ quantum billiards. We show that these distributions distinguish clearly between systems with integrable (separable) or chaotic…
Let $0\leq q\leq1$ and $\mathbb{N}$ denotes the set of all positive integers. In this paper we will deal with it too the family $\mathcal{U}(x^q)$ of all regularly distributed set $X \subset \mathbb{N}$ whose ratio block sequence is…
In this paper, we revisit the classical Duhamel's principle and provide a self-contained proof of this fundamental tool for linear evolution equations and systems of coupled equations. Moreover, we establish a $q$-analogue of Duhamel's…
The concept of time emerges as an ordering structure in a classical statistical ensemble. Probability distributions $p_\tau(t)$ at a given time $t$ obtain by integrating out the past and future. We discuss all-time probability distributions…
Based on the q-deformed oscillator algebra, we study the behavior of the mean occupation number and its analogies with intermediate statistics and we obtain an expression in terms of an infinite continued fraction, thus clarifying…
The q-binomial coefficients were assumed to be unimodal as early as the 1850's, but it remained unproven until Sylvester's 1878 proof using invariant theory. In 1982, Proctor gave an "elementary" proof using linear algebra. Finally, in…
