Given a unitarily invariant ergodic measure on $\infty\times \infty$ Hermitian matrices, it is known that the characteristic function determines (and is determined by) a Polya frequency function $p(t)$. In turn the (finite) measure…

We present a categorical viewpoint of probability measures by showing that a probability measure can be viewed as a weakly averaging affine measurable functional taking values in the unit interval which preserves limits. The probability…

We construct a family of probability measures on the group of Hamiltonian diffeomorphisms of a closed symplectic manifold $(M,\omega)$. We show that these measures are Borel measures with respect to the topology induced by the Hofer metric.…

In this paper we study a p harmonic measure, associated with a positive p harmonic function \hat{u} defined in an open set O, subset of R^n, and vanishing on a portion \Gamma of boundary of O. If p>n we show that this p harmonic measure is…

We study the projective logarithmic potential $\mathbb{G}_{\mu}$ of a Probability measure $\mu$ on the complex projective space $\mathbb{P}^{n}$. We prove that the Range of the operator $\mu\longrightarrow \mathbb{G}_{\mu}$ is contained in…

We consider the action of Mandelbrot multiplicative cascades on probability measures supported on a symbolic space. For general probability measures, we obtain almost a sharp criterion of non-degeneracy of the limiting measure; it relies on…

We prove an analogue of the portmanteau theorem on weak convergence of probability measures allowing measures which are unbounded on an underlying metric space but finite on the complement of any Borel neighbourhood of a fixed element.

We give a simple criterion on the set of probability tangent measures $\mathrm{Tan}(\mu,x)$ of a positive Radon measure $\mu$, which yields lower bounds on the Hausdorff dimension of $\mu$. As an application, we give an elementary and…

We study $L^p(\mu)$ estimates for the commutator $[H,b]$, where the operator $H$ is a dyadic model of the classical Hilbert transform introduced in \cite{arXiv:2012.10201,arXiv:2212.00090} and is adapted to a non-doubling Borel measure…

Let X denote a simply connected compact Riemannian symmetric space, U the universal covering of the identity component of the group of automorphisms of X, and LU the loop group of U. In this paper we prove the existence (and conjecture the…

We show that whenever a separable subset $S$ of a complete metric space $X$ admits a $d$-dimensional weak tangent field, the set $S$ is close to being $d$-dimensional in the following sense. Whenever $\mu$ is a Borel finite measure on $X$…

Let E be a plane self-affine set defined by affine transformations with linear parts given by matrices with positive entries. We show that if mu is a Bernoulli measure on E with dim_H mu = dim_L mu, where dim_H and dim_L denote Hausdorff…

Sequential estimation of a probability $p$ by means of inverse binomial sampling is considered. For $\mu_1,\mu_2>1$ given, the accuracy of an estimator $\hat{p}$ is measured by the confidence level $P[p/\mu_2\leq\hat{p}\leq p\mu_1]$. The…

We study a large-scale one-sided multiple testing problem in which test statistics follow normal distributions with unit variance, and the goal is to identify signals with positive mean effects. A conventional approach is to compute…

Given $\epsilon \in (0,1)$, a probability measure $\mu$ on $\Omega\subset\mathbb{R}^p$ and a semi-algebraic set $K\subset X\times\Omega$, we consider the feasible set $X^*_\epsilon=\{x\in X:{\rm Prob}[(x,\omega)\in K]\geq 1-\epsilon\}$…

It is well-known that there is a Sobolev homeomorphism $f\in W^{1,p}([-1,1]^n,[-1,1]^n)$ for any $p<n$ which maps a set $C$ of zero Lebesgue $n$-dimensional measure onto the set of positive measure. We study the size of this critical set…

Let $t \in [1,2)$ and $p > 2/(2 - t)$. I construct a $t$-Frostman Borel measure $\mu$ on $[0,1]^{2}$ such that $\pi_{\theta}\mu \notin L^{p}$ for every $\theta \in S^{1}$. This answers a question of Peres and Schlag.
