In the probability theory limit distributions (or probability measures) are often characterized by some convolution equations (factorization properties) rather than by Fourier transforms (the characteristic functionals). In fact, usually…

We study the asymptotic distribution of zeros for the random polynomials $P_n(z) = \sum_{k=0}^n A_k B_k(z)$, where $\{A_k\}_{k=0}^{\infty}$ are non-trivial i.i.d. complex random variables. Polynomials $\{B_k\}_{k=0}^{\infty}$ are…

We investigate the problem of characterizing the optimal variance proxy for sub-Gaussian random variables,whose moment-generating function exhibits bounded growth at infinity. We apply a general characterization method to discrete random…

We study asymptotic probabilities of attaining the maximum in heterogeneous Gaussian samples. In the two-group setting, the first sample has variance $1$ and size $n_1$, while the second has variance $\sigma^2>1$ and size $n_2$. We…

We consider first passage percolation on sparse random graphs with prescribed degree distributions and general independent and identically distributed edge weights assumed to have a density. Assuming that the degree distribution satisfies a…

In a recent paper, we considered integers n for which the polynomial x^n - 1 has a divisor in Z[x] of every degree up to n, and we gave upper and lower bounds for their distribution. In this paper, we consider those n for which the…

Suppose that $G_j$ is a sequence of finite connected planar graphs, and in each $G_j$ a special vertex, called the root, is chosen randomly-uniformly. We introduce the notion of a distributional limit $G$ of such graphs. Assume that the…

We study the full distribution $P_{N}\left(A\right)$ of sums $A = \sum_{i=1}^N$ where $x_1, \dots, x_N$ are $N \gg 1$ independent and identically distributed random variables each sampled from a given distribution $p(x)$ with a…

The classical Poisson theorem says that if $\xi_1,\xi_2,...$ are i.i.d. 0--1 Bernoulli random variables taking on 1 with probability $p_n\equiv \la/n$ then the sum $S_n=\sum_{i=1}^n\xi_i$ is asymptotically in $n$ Poisson distributed with…

A classic result by Carbery and Wright states that a polynomial of Gaussian random variables exhibits anti-concentration in the following sense: for any degree $d$ polynomial $f$, one has the estimate $P( |f(x)| \leq \varepsilon \cdot…

Let $K_n$ denote the number of distinct values among the first $n$ terms of an infinite exchangeable sequence of random variables $(X_1,X_2,\ldots)$. We prove for $n=3$ that the extreme points of the convex set of all possible laws of $K_3$…

On a probability space $(\Omega, \mathcal F, \mathbb P)$ we consider two independent sequences $(a_k)_{k \geq 1}$ and $(b_k)_{k \geq 1}$ of i.i.d. random variables that are centered with unit variance and which admit a moment strictly…
