In recent work with Harman, we introduced a notion of measure on a class of finite relational structures. In this note, we consider measures on the class of permutations, i.e., finite sets with two total orders. Using a method of Nekrasov,…
In recent work with Harman, we introduced a new notion of measure for oligomorphic groups, and showed how they can be used to produce interesting tensor categories. Determining the measures for an oligomorphic group is (in our view) an…
In this paper we introduce for a group $G$ the notion of ultralimit of measure class preserving actions of it, and show that its Furstenberg-Poisson boundaries can be obtained as an ultralimit of actions on itself, when equipped with…
Measures on Fra\"iss\'e classes are a key input in the Harman--Snowden (2022) construction of tensor categories. Treelike Fra\"iss\'e classes provide a particularly tractable source of examples. In this paper, we complete the classification…
Suppose $\{f_1,...,f_m\}$ is a set of Lipschitz maps of $\mathbb{R}^d$. We form the iterated function system (IFS) by independently choosing the maps so that the map $f_i$ is chosen with probability $p_i$ ($\sum_{i=1}^m p_i=1$). We assume…
We consider a binary supervised learning classification problem where instead of having data in a finite-dimensional Euclidean space, we observe measures on a compact space $\mathcal{X}$. Formally, we observe data $D_N = (\mu_1, Y_1),…
In this paper, we defined three kinds of measures depending on the given finite directed graphs. For the given finite directed graph, we can construct the free semigroupoid, the diagram set and the reduced diagram set, as algebraic…
A probability measure $P_n$ on the symmetric group ${\mathfrak S}_n$ is said to be record-dependent if $P_n(\sigma)$ depends only on the set of records of a permutation $\sigma\in{\mathfrak S}_n$. A sequence $P=(P_n)_{n\in{\mathbb N}}$ of…
This paper is partly an exposition, and partly an extension of our work [1] to the multiparameter case. We consider certain classes of parametrized dynamically defined measures. These are push-forwards, under the natural projection, of…
We develop \emph{Fra\"iss\'e theory}, namely the theory of \emph{Fra\"iss\'e classes} and \emph{Fra\"iss\'e limits}, in the context of metric structures. We show that a class of finitely generated structures is Fra\"iss\'e if and only if it…
Early results by Borel and Cantelli and Erd\H{o}s and Chung have provided bounds for the measure of a limsup set in terms of measures of its constituent sets and their intersections. Recent work by Beresnevich and Velani \cite{Velanipaper}…
A result of Nymann is extended to show that a positive $\sigma$-finite measure with range an interval is determined by its level sets. An example is given of two finite positive measures with range the same finite union of intervals but…
In this thesis, the main objects of study are probability measures on the isomorphism classes of countable, connected rooted graphs. An important class of such measures is formed by unimodular measures, which satisfy a certain equation,…
Let $f: M \to M$ be a diffeomorphism defined on a compact boundaryless $d$-dimensional manifold $M$, $d\geq 2$. C. Morales has proposed the notion of measure expansiveness. In this note we show that diffeomorphisms in a residual subset far…
We prove general results about separation and weak$^\#$-convergence of boundedly finite measures on separable metric spaces and Souslin spaces. More precisely, we consider an algebra of bounded real-valued, or more generally a $*$-algebra…
The multifractal spectrum of a Borel measure $\mu$ in $\mathbb{R}^n$ is defined as \[ f_\mu(\alpha) = \dim_H {x:\lim_{r\to 0} \frac{\log \mu(B(x,r))}{\log r}=\alpha}. \] For self-similar measures under the open set condition the behavior of…
We study the multifractal analysis of self-similar measures arising from random homogeneous iterated function systems. Under the assumption of the uniform strong separation condition, we see that this analysis parallels that of the…
In this paper we give an improved upper bound, as compared to the one given in [3] for the number of extreme points of the convex set of all G-invariant probability measures on X*Y with given marginals of full support.
Given a factor code $\pi$ from a shift of finite type $X$ onto a sofic shift $Y$, an ergodic measure $\nu$ on $Y$, and a function $V$ on $X$ with summable variation, we prove an invariant upper bound on the number of ergodic measures on $X$…
Outer measures can be used for statistical inference in place of probability measures to bring flexibility in terms of model specification. The corresponding statistical procedures such as Bayesian inference, estimators or hypothesis…
