This paper extends earlier work on the distribution in the complex plane of the roots of random polynomials. In this paper, the random polynomials are generalized to random finite sums of given "basis" functions. The basis functions are…
In this paper a new approach is derived in the context of shape theory. The implemented methodology is motivated in an open problem proposed in \citet{GM93} about the construction of certain shape density involving Euler hypergeometric…
We give an extension of a criterion of van der Corput on uniform distribution of sequences. Namely, we prove that a sequence $x_n$ is uniformly distributed modulo 1 if it is weakly monotonic and satisfies the conditions $\Delta^2x_n\to…
Motivated by the need, in some Bayesian likelihood free inference problems, of imputing a multivariate counting distribution based on its vector of means and variance-covariance matrix, we define a generic multivariate discrete…
Using a probabilistic model, based on random walks on the additive group $\mathbb{Z}/m\mathbb{Z}$, we prove that the values of certain real character sums are uniformly distributed in residue classes modulo $m$.
This paper considers the topic of finding prior distributions when a major component of the statistical model depends on a nonlinear function. Using results on how to construct uniform distributions in general metric spaces, we propose a…
It has been conjectured that the sequence $(3/2)^n$ modulo $1$ is uniformly distributed. The distribution of this sequence is signifcant in relation to unsolved problems in number theory including the Collatz conjecture. In this paper, we…
This work proposes a unified theory of regularity in one hypercomplex variable: the theory of $T$-regular functions. In the special case of quaternion-valued functions of one quaternionic variable, this unified theory comprises…
The theory of algebraic extensions of Banach algebras is well established, and there are many constructions which yield interesting extensions. In particular, Cole's method for extending uniform algebras by adding square roots of functions…
Weyl's classical equidistribution theorem states that real-valued polynomial sequences are uniformly distributed modulo 1, unless all non-constant coefficients are rational. A continuous function between two topological groups is called a…
In 2023, Li, Du, Yi proved a uniqueness theorem for L functions in the extended Selberg class under the assumptions of positive degree, a shared functional equation, and the sharing of three complex values. This was later strengthened by…
The sum of $n$ {non-independent} Bernoulli random variables could be modeled in several different ways. One of these is the Multiplicative Binomial Distribution (MBD), introduced by Altham (1978) and revised by Lovison (1998). In this work,…
We apply the topology of convergence on compact sets to define unpredictable functions [5, 6]. The topology is metrizable and easy for applications with integral operators. To demonstrate the effectiveness of the approach, the existence and…
The algorithmic theory of randomness is well developed when the underlying space is the set of finite or infinite sequences and the underlying probability distribution is the uniform distribution or a computable distribution. These…
Possibilities for defining the radial derivative of the delta distribution $\delta(\underline{x})$ in the setting of spherical coordinates are explored. This leads to the introduction of a new class of continuous linear functionals similar…
Marshall and Olkin (1997, Biometrika, 84, 641 - 652) introduced a very powerful method to introduce an additional parameter to a class of continuous distribution functions and hence it brings more flexibility to the model. They have…
We provide finite-sample distribution approximations, that are uniform in the parameter, for inference in linear mixed models. Focus is on variances and covariances of random effects in cases where existing theory fails because their…
We construct a generalization of the multiplicative product of distributions presented by L. H\"ormander in [L. H\"ormander, {\it The analysis of linear partial differential operators I} (Springer-Verlag, 1983)]. The new product is defined…
In 1949 Wall showed that $x = 0.d_1d_2d_3 \dots$ is normal if and only if $(0.d_nd_{n+1}d_{n+2} \dots)_n$ is a uniformly distributed sequence. In this article, we consider sequences which are slight variants on this. In particular, we show…
In this paper, we give a general formula to determine the quantization coefficients for uniform distributions defined on the boundaries of different regular $m$-sided polygons inscribed in a circle. The result shows that the quantization…
