Let $X$ be a random variable with distribution function $F,$ and $X_{1},X_{2},...,X_{n}$ are independent copies of $X.$ Consider the order statistics $X_{i:n},$ $i=1,2,...,n$ and denote $F_{i:n}(x)=P\{X_{i:n}\leq x\}.$ Using majorization…
For integers $k \geq 3$ and $r\geq 2$, we show that for every $\alpha> 0$, there exists $\varepsilon > 0$ such that the union of $k$-uniform hypergraph on $n$ vertices with minimum codegree at least $\alpha n$ and a binomial random…
A h-uniform hypergraph H=(V,E) is called (l,k)-orientable if there exists an assignment of each hyperedge e to exactly l of its vertices such that no vertex is assigned more than k hyperedges. Let H_{n,m,h} be a hypergraph, drawn uniformly…
Let $(\xi_1, \eta_1)$, $(\xi_2, \eta_2),\ldots$ be independent identically distributed $\mathbb{N}^2$-valued random vectors with arbitrarily dependent components. The sequence $(\Theta_k)_{k\in\mathbb{N}}$ defined by…
We consider products of uniform random variables from the Stiefel manifold of orthonormal $k$-frames in $\mathbb{R}^n$, $k \le n$, and random vectors from the $n$-dimensional $\ell_p^n$-ball $\mathbb{B}_p^n$ with certain $p$-radial…
Let $X_1, X_2, \dots$ be independent, identically distributed random variables taking values from a compact metrizable group $G$. We prove that the random walk $S_k=X_1 X_2 \cdots X_k$, $k=1,2,\dots$ equidistributes in any given Borel…
We establish the following universality property in high dimensions: Let $X$ be a random vector with density in $\mathbb{R}^n$. The density function can be arbitrary. We show that there exists a fixed unit vector $\theta \in \mathbb{R}^n$…
Let $\bigl\{X_k\bigr\}_{k \in \mathbb{Z}} \in \mathbb{L}^2(\mathcal{T})$ be a stationary process with associated lag operators ${\boldsymbol{\cal C}}_h$. Uniform asymptotic expansions of the corresponding empirical eigenvalues and…
Suppose a sequence of random variables {X_n} has negative drift when above a certain threshold and has increments bounded in L^p. When p>2 this implies that EX_n is bounded above by a constant independent of n and the particular sequence…
We study the lacunary analogue of the $\delta$-discretised spherical maximal operators introduced by Hickman and Jan\v{c}ar, for $\delta \in (0, 1/2)$, and establish the boundedness on $L^p$ for all $1 < p < \infty$, along with the endpoint…
We prove that, for any jointly stable random variables $X_1, \dots, X_k$ with zero mean, any $m<k,$ and any even continuous positive definite functions $f$ and $g$ on $\Bbb R^m$ and $\Bbb R^{k-m},$ the random variables $f(X_1,\dots,X_m)$…
In this article, we show that a linear combination $X$ of $n$ independent, unbiased Bernoulli random variables $\{X_k\}$ can match the first $2n$ moments of a random variable $Y$ which is uniform on an interval. More generally, for each $p…
Let $\pi_n$ be a uniformly chosen random permutation on $[n]$. The authors of [2] showed that the expected number of distinct consecutive patterns of all lengths $k\in\{1,2,\ldots,n\}$ in $\pi_n$ was $\frac{n^2}{2}(1-o(1))$ as $n\to\infty$,…
Random walks in random scenery are processes defined by $Z_n:=\sum_{k=1}^n\xi_{X_1+...+X_k}$, where $(X_k,k\ge 1)$ and $(\xi_y,y\in\mathbb Z)$ are two independent sequences of i.i.d. random variables. We assume here that their distributions…
Let $L_n(k)$ denote the least common multiple of $k$ independent random integers uniformly chosen in $\{1,2,\ldots ,n\}$. In this note, using a purely probabilistic approach, we derive a criterion for the convergence in distribution as…
Let $\{X(v), v \in \Bbb Z^d \times \Bbb Z_+\}$ be an i.i.d. family of random variables such that $P\{X(v)= e^b\}=1-P\{X(v)= 1\} = p$ for some $b>0$. We consider paths $\pi \subset \Bbb Z^d \times \Bbb Z_+$ starting at the origin and with…
Given an operator system $\mathcal{S}$, we define the parameters $r_k(\mathcal{S})$ (resp. $d_k(\mathcal{S})$) defined as the maximal value of the completely bounded norm of a unital $k$-positive map from an arbitrary operator system into…
Quasi-one-dimensional stochastic Dirac operators with an odd number of channels, time reversal symmetry but otherwise efficiently coupled randomness are shown to have one conducting channel and absolutely continuous spectrum of multiplicity…

Generalizing the bounded kernel results of Borgs, Chayes, Lov\'asz, S\'os and Vesztergombi (2008), we prove two Sampling Lemmas for unbounded kernels with respect to the cut norm. On the one hand, we show that given a (symmetric) kernel…
