The sequence of 1/2-discrepancy sums of $\{x + i \theta \bmod 1\}$ is realized through a sequence of substitutions on an alphabet of three symbols; particular attention is paid to $x=0$. The first application is to show that any asymptotic…

We consider random integer partitions $\lambda$ that follow the Poissonized Plancherel measure of parameter $t^2$. Using Riemann$-$Hilbert techniques, we establish the asymptotics of the multiplicative averages $$Q(t,s)=\mathbb{E} \left[…

Given an arithmetic function $g(n)$ write $M_g(x) := \sum_{n \leq x} g(n)$. We extend and strengthen the results of a fundamental paper of Hal\'{a}sz in several ways by proving upper bounds for the ratio of $\frac{|M_g(x)|}{M_{|g|}(x)}$,…

For a fixed unit vector $a=(a_1,a_2,\ldots,a_n)\in S^{n-1}$, we consider the $2^n$ sign vectors $\varepsilon=(\varepsilon^1,\varepsilon^2,\ldots,\varepsilon^n)\in \{+1,-1\}^n$ and the corresponding scalar products $\varepsilon\cdot…

We prove a central limit theorem for random sums of the form $\sum_{i=1}^{N_n} X_i$, where $\{X_i\}_{i \geq 1}$ is a stationary $m-$dependent process and $N_n$ is a random index independent of $\{X_i\}_{i\geq 1}$. Our proof is a…

We obtain error rates for large deviations of sums of i.i.d. random variables in, a particular case, of the domain of a non-symmetric infinite mean $\alpha=1$-stable law. The focus of this work is on the method of proof via analytic…

In this paper we consider the parameter estimation problem associated to partially-observed time changed SDEs, with observations that are given at discrete times. In particular we consider both likelihood and Bayesian estimation. We develop…

Let $\{X_{i}, i\in J\}$ be a family of locally dependent non-negative integer-valued random variables with finite expectations and variances. We consider the sum $W=\sum_{i\in J}X_i$ and use Stein's method to establish general upper error…

Let $f$ be an arithmetic function satisfying some simple conditions. The aim of this paper is to establish an asymptotical formula for the quantity \[ S_f(x):=\sum_{n\leq x}\frac{f([x/n])}{[x/n]} \] as $x\rightarrow\infty$, where $[t]$ is…

We investigate fractional sums of arithmetic functions over products of two or three integers, with emphasis on fixed greatest common divisors and multiplicative weights. Let $f$ be an arithmetic function satisfying $f(n) \ll n^\alpha$ for…

In this short note we prove the following result: If a completely multiplicative function $f:\mathbb{N}\to[-1,1]$ is small on average in the sense that $\sum_{n\leq x}f(n)\ll x^{1-\delta}$, for some $\delta>0$, and if the Dirichlet series…

A random graph order is a partial order achieved by independently sprinkling relations on a vertex set (each with probability $p$) and adding relations to satisfy the requirement of transitivity. A \textit{post} is an element in a partially…

Let E be a separable (or the dual of a separable) symmetric function space, let M be a semifinite von Neumann algebra and let E(M) be the associated noncommutative function space. Let $(\epsilon_k)_k$ be a Rademacher sequence, on some…

The Poisson distribution of order $k$ is a special case of a compound Poisson distribution. For $k=1$ it is the standard Poisson distribution. Our main result is a proof that for sufficiently small values of the rate parameter $\lambda$,…

There has been recent interest in the conditional central limit question for (strictly) stationary, ergodic processes $...,X_{-1},X_0,X_1,...$ whose partial sums $S_n=X_1+...+X_n$ are of the form $S_n=M_n+R_n$, where $M_n$ is a square…

Motivated by recent results, we study sums of the form $S_f(x) = \sum_{n\leq x} f\left(\left\lfloor\frac{x}{n}\right\rfloor \right)$, where $f$ is an arithmetic function and $\left\lfloor\cdot\right\rfloor$ denotes the greatest integer…

We provide an asymptotic expansion for the mean-value of the logarithm of the middle prime factor of an integer, defined according to multiplicity or not, thus generalising a recent study of McNew, Pollack, and Singha Roy. This yields an…

We extend a result of Lyons (2016) from fractional tiling of finite graphs to a version for infinite random graphs. The most general result is as follows. Let $\bf P$ be a unimodular probability measure on rooted networks $(G, o)$ with…

The odds ratio (OR) is a measure of effect size commonly used in observational research. OR reflects statistical association between a binary outcome, such as the presence of a health condition, and a binary predictor, such as an exposure…

In this paper, we discuss an alternative approach to determine an asymptotic equivalent of the partial sum of the reciprocals of prime numbers. This well-known result, related to Merten's second theorem, is usually derived through methods…
