We compute averages of products and ratios of characteristic polynomials associated with Orthogonal, Unitary, and Symplectic Ensembles of Random Matrix Theory. The pfaffian/determinantal formulas for these averages are obtained, and the…
In the simple random walk the steps are independent, whereas in the Elephant Random Walk (ERW), which was introduced by Sch\"utz and Trimper in 2004, the next step always depends on the whole path so far. In an earlier paper we investigated…
We prove a conjecture by Bertoin that the multi-dimensional elephant random walk on $\mathbb{Z}^d$($d\geq 3$) is transient and the expected number of zeros is finite. We also provide some estimates on the rate of escape. In dimensions $d=…
Spherically symmetric random walks in arbitrary dimension $D$ can be described in terms of Gegenbauer (ultraspherical) polynomials. For example, Legendre polynomials can be used to represent the special case of two-dimensional spherically…
Orthogonal polynomials and multiple orthogonal polynomials are interesting special functions because there is a beautiful theory for them, with many examples and useful applications in mathematical physics, numerical analysis, statistics…
In this paper we obtain some explicit expressions for the Euler characteristic of a rank n coherent sheaf F on P^N and of its twists F(t) as polynomials in the Chern classes c_i(F), also giving algorithms for the computation. The employed…
Orthogonal polynomials are of fundamental importance in many fields of mathematics and science, therefore the study of a particular family is always relevant. In this manuscript, we present a survey of some general results of the Hermite…
Gut and Stadm\"{u}ller (2021, 2022) initiated the study of the elephant random walk with limited memory. Aguech and El Machkouri (2024) published a paper in which they discuss an extension of results by Gut and Stadtm\"{u}ller (2022) for an…
We describe a family of polynomials discovered via a particular recursion relation, which have connections to Chebyshev polynomials of the first and the second kind, and the polynomial version of Pell's equation. Many of their properties…
In this paper, we consider sequences of polynomials that satisfy differential--difference recurrences. Our interest is motivated by the fact that polynomials satisfying such recurrences frequently appear as generating polynomials of integer…
In this paper, we define the notion of descent for the paths in the $p$-Bratteli diagram. This leads to the definition of $p^{k}$-Eulerian polynomials, whose coefficients count the number of paths with a given number of descents. We provide…
Polynomial ensembles are determinantal point processes associated with (non necessarily orthogonal) projections onto polynomial subspaces. The aim of this survey article is to put forward the use of recurrence coefficients to obtain the…
For a measure on a subset of the complex plane we consider $L^p$-optimal weighted polynomials, namely, monic polynomials of degree $n$ with a varying weight of the form $w^n = {\rm e}^{-n V}$ which minimize the $L^p$-norms, $1 \leq p \leq…
This paper revisits the notion of classical orthogonal polynomials from a broader functional-analytic point of view. It is intended neither as a survey of known results nor as a review of the literature, but rather as a conceptual…
In this paper, we construct families of polynomials defined by recurrence relations related to mean-zero random walks. We show these families of polynomials can be used to approximate $z^n$ by a polynomial of degree $\sim \sqrt{n}$ in…
A family of multivariate orthogonal polynomials generalizing the standard (univariate) Charlier polynomials is shown to arise in the matrix elements of the unitary representation of the Euclidean group E(d) on oscillator states. These…
We show connection between Dyck paths with peaks of bounded height and random walks. The correspondence between a certain class of random walks and such Dyck paths allows us to develop a probabilistic perspective on Chebyshev polynomials.
The P-Eulerian polynomial counts the linear extensions of a labeled partially ordered set, P, by their number of descents. It is known that the P-Eulerian polynomials are real-rooted for various classes of posets P. The purpose of this…
We consider a randomized urn model with objects of finitely many colors. The replacement matrices are random, and are conditionally independent of the color chosen given the past. Further, the conditional expectations of the replacement…
In the simple random walk the steps are independent, viz., the walker has no memory. In contrast, in the Elephant Random walk (ERW), which was introduced by Sch\"utz and Trimper in 2004, the walker remembers the whole past, and the next…
