We try to understand complete types over a somewhat saturated model of a complete first order theory which is dependent (previously called NIP), by "decomposition theorems for such types". Our thesis is that the picture of dependent theory…
This work investigates the combinatorial structures underlying cyclic conditional freeness and introduces cumulants that serve to linearize the cyclic conditional additive convolution. In the process, we establish the notion of "cyclic…
We revisit the problem of enumeration of vertex-tricolored planar random triangulations solved in [Nucl. Phys. B 516 [FS] (1998) 543-587] in the light of recent combinatorial developments relating classical planar graph counting problems to…
In this paper, we give a simple combinatorial explanation of a formula of A. Postnikov relating bicolored rooted trees to bicolored binary trees. We also present generalized formulas for the number of labeled k-ary trees, rooted labeled…
It is well-known that the Bhattacharyya, Hellinger, Kullback-Leibler, $\alpha$-divergences, and Jeffreys' divergences between densities belonging to a same exponential family have generic closed-form formulas relying on the strictly convex…
This paper proposes a regression tree procedure to estimate conditional copulas. The associated algorithm determines classes of observations based on covariate values and fits a simple parametric copula model on each class. The association…
In this paper, the notion of bi-Boolean independence for non-unital pairs of algebras is introduced thereby extending the notion of Boolean independence to pairs of algebras. The notion of B-$(\ell, r)$-cumulants is defined via a bi-Boolean…
We study some sequences of polynomials that appear when we consider the successive derivatives of the tree function (or Lambert's W function). We show in particular that they are related with a generalization of Cayley trees, called Greg…
A tanglegram is a pair of binary trees with the same set of leaves. Unlabeled tanglegrams were counted recently by Billey, Konvalinka, and Matsen, who also proposed the problem of counting several variations of unlabeled tanglegrams…
Cumulants and moments are closely related to the basic mathematics of continuous and discrete selection (respectively). These relationships generalize Fisher's fundamental theorem of natural selection and also make clear some of its…
In this paper, we characterize a duality relation between Eulerian recurrences and Eulerian recurrence systems, which generalizes and unifies Hermite-Biehler decompositions of several enumerative polynomials, including flag descent…
The in-order traversal provides a natural correspondence between binary trees with a decreasing vertex labeling and endofunctions on a finite set. By suitably restricting the vertex labeling we arrive at a class of trees that we call…
Categorical constructions on heaps and modules over trusses are considered and contrasted with the corresponding constructions on groups and rings. These include explicit description of free heaps and free Abelian heaps, coproducts or…
The generating function of the cumulants in random matrix models, as well as the cumulants themselves, can be expanded as asymptotic (divergent) series indexed by maps. While at fixed genus the sums over maps converge, the sums over genera…
We present a systematic procedure for analyzing cumulants to arbitrary order in the context of heavy-ion collisions. It generalizes and improves existing procedures in many respects. In particular, particles which are correlated are allowed…
The purpose of this article is to show how the isotropy subgroup of leaf permutations on binary trees can be used to systematically identify tree-informative invariants relevant to models of phylogenetic evolution. In the quartet case, we…
We discuss free probability theory and free harmonic analysis from a categorical perspective. In order to do so, we extend first the set of analytic convolutions and operations and then show that the comonadic structure governing free…
Given a multiarrangement of hyperplanes we define a series by sums of the Hilbert series of the derivation modules of the multiarrangement. This series turns out to be a polynomial. Using this polynomial we define the characteristic…
Motivated by the $(q,\gamma)$-cumulants, introduced by Xu [arXiv:2303.13812] to study $\beta$-deformed singular values of random matrices, we define the $(n,d)$-rectangular cumulants for polynomials of degree $d$ and prove several…
A classical result of Euler states that the tangent numbers are an alternating sum of Eulerian numbers. A dual result of Roselle states that the secant numbers can be obtained by a signed enumeration of derangements. We show that both…
