Let $p_n$ be a random, degree $n$ polynomial whose roots are chosen independently according to the probability measure $\mu$ on the complex plane. For a deterministic point $\xi$ lying outside the support of $\mu$, we show that almost…

We consider a more generalized spiked covariance matrix $\Sigma$, which is a general non-definite matrix with the spiked eigenvalues scattered into a few bulks and the largest ones allowed to tend to infinity. By relaxing the matching of…

We prove that for each $k\ge0$, the probability that a root vertex in a random planar graph has degree $k$ tends to a computable constant $d_k$, so that the expected number of vertices of degree $k$ is asymptotically $d_k n$, and moreover…

Representation theory and the theory of symmetric functions have played a central role in Random Matrix Theory in the computation of quantities such as joint moments of traces and joint moments of characteristic polynomials of matrices…

We consider random permutations on $\Sn$ with logarithmic growing cycles weights and study asymptotic behavior as the length $n$ tends to infinity. We show that the cycle count process converges to a vector of independent Poisson variables…

For any $n\geq 1$, let $T_n$ be the complete binary rooted tree of height $n$, and $f(x)=(x+a)^2-a-1$ such that $a\neq \pm b^2$ for any $b\in \mathbb{Z}$. In \cite{Settled}, Jones and Boston empirically observed that iteratively applying a…

We obtain functional central limit theorems for both discrete time expressions of the form $1/\sqrt{N}\sum_{n=1}^{[Nt]}(F(X(q_1(n)),\ldots, X(q_{\ell}(n)))-\bar{F})$ and similar expressions in the continuous time where the sum is replaced…

The random polytope $K_n$, defined as the convex hull of $n$ points chosen uniformly at random on the boundary of a smooth convex body, is considered. Proofs for lower and upper variance bounds, strong laws of large numbers and central…

The projected normal distribution, also known as the angular Gaussian distribution, is obtained by dividing a multivariate normal random variable $\mathbf{x}$ by its norm $\sqrt{\mathbf{x}^T \mathbf{x}}$. The resulting random variable…

The goal of this paper is to apply the collection of mathematical tools known as the "method of arbitrary functions" to analyze how probability arises from quantum dynamics. We argue that in a toy model of quantum measurement the Born rule…

We consider generating functionals for computing correlators in quantum field theories with random potentials. Examples of such theories include condensed matter systems with quenched disorder (e.g. spin glass) or cosmological systems in…

This paper presents an identity between the multivariate and univariate saddlepoint approximations applied to sample path probabilities for a certain class of stochastic processes. This class, which we term the recursively compounded…

We derive an exact expression for the probability density of work done on a particle that diffuses in a parabolic potential with a stiffness varying by an arbitrary piecewise constant protocol. Based on this result, the work distribution…

Let $\boldsymbol{X}$ be a $d$-dimensional random array on $[n]$ whose entries take values in a finite set $\mathcal{X}$, that is, $\boldsymbol{X}=\langle X_s:s\in \binom{[n]}{d}\rangle$ is an $\mathcal{X}$-valued stochastic process indexed…

Conrey, Farmer, Keating, Rubinstein and Snaith have given a recipe that conjecturally produces, among others, the full moment polynomial for the Riemann zeta function. The leading term of this polynomial is given as a product of a factor…

We calculate the discrete moments of the characteristic polynomial of a random unitary matrix, evaluated a small distance away from an eigenangle. Such results allow us to make conjectures about similar moments for the Riemann zeta…

Ratios of random variables often appear in probability and statistical applications. We aim to approximate the moments of such ratios under several dependence assumptions. Extending the ideas in Collomb [C. R. Acad. Sci. Paris 285 (1977)…

In this note we study the number of real roots of a wide class of random orthogonal polynomials with gaussian coefficients. Using the method of Wiener Chaos we show that the fluctuation in the bulk is asymptotically gaussian, even when the…

This note is motivated by an old result of Kronecker on monic polynomials with integer coefficients having all their roots in the unit disc. We call such polynomials Kronecker polynomials for short. Let $k(n)$ denote the number of Kronecker…
