In [3], we have introduced a probability measure to study the power and exponential sums for a certain coding system. The distribution function of the probability measure gives explicit formulas for the power and exponential sums.…

Let $G$ be a sofic group, and let $\Sigma = (\sigma_n)_{n\geq 1}$ be a sofic approximation to it. For a probability-preserving $G$-system, a variant of the sofic entropy relative to $\Sigma$ has recently been defined in terms of sequences…

With a new proof approach we prove in a more general setting the classical convergence theorem that almost everywhere convergence of measurable functions on a finite measure space implies convergence in measure. Specifically, we generalize…

A Borel probability measure $\mu$ on a locally compact group is called a spectral measure if there exists a subset of continuous group characters which forms an orthogonal basis of the Hilbert space $L^2(\mu)$. In this paper, we…

The hidden-variable question is whether or not various properties --- randomness or correlation, for example --- that are observed in the outcomes of an experiment can be explained via introduction of extra (hidden) variables which are…

We consider symmetric Dirichlet forms on locally compact and non-locally compact spaces and provide an elementary proof for their closability with respect to energy dominant measures. We also discuss how to use known potential theoretic…

We study the relationship between Amoeba forcing (the partial order which generically adds a measure one set of random reals) and projective measurability. Given a universe V of set theory and a forcing notion P in V we say that V is…

We derive an extended empirical likelihood for parameters defined by estimating equations which generalizes the original empirical likelihood for such parameters to the full parameter space. Under mild conditions, the extended empirical…

In this paper we give another proof of the fact that a random overlap array, which satisfies the Ghirlanda-Guerra identities and whose elements take values in a finite set, is ultrametric with probability one. The new proof bypasses random…

The Taylor expansion is a widely used and powerful tool in all branches of Mathematics, both pure and applied. In Probability and Mathematical Statistics, however, a stronger version of Taylor's classical theorem is often needed, but only…

We study the existence of non-separable compact spaces that support a measure and are small from the topological point of view. In particular, we show that under Martin's axiom there is a non-separable compact space supporting a measure…

In this paper, we develop a general theory on the coverage probability of random intervals defined in terms of discrete random variables with continuous parameter spaces. The theory shows that the minimum coverage probabilities of random…

We provide conditions which guarantee that ergodic measures are dense in the simplex of invariant probability measures of a dynamical system given by a continuous map acting on a Polish space. Using them we study generic properties of…

Dispersion is a fundamental concept in statistics, yet standard approaches - especially via stochastic orders - face limitations in the discrete setting. In particular, the classical dispersive order, well-established for continuous…

The paper is devoted to studying the image of probability measures on a Hilbert space under finite-dimensional analytic maps. We establish sufficient conditions under which the image of a measure has a density with respect to the Lebesgue…

We consider a discrete-time, continuous-state random walk with steps uniformly distributed in a disk of radius of $h$. For a simply connected domain $D$ in the plane, let $\omega_h(0,\cdot;D)$ be the discrete harmonic measure at $0\in D$…

Let $A$ be the disk algebra, $\Omega$ be a compact Hausdorff space and $\mu$ be a finite Borel measure in $\Omega$. It is shown that the dual of $C(\Omega,A)$ has the Dunford-Pettis Property. This proved in particular that the spaces…
