The normalized totally positive bases are widely used in many fields.Based on the generalized Vandermonde determinant, the normalized total positivity of a kind of generalized toric-Bernstein basis is proved, which is defined on a set of…

Let $(a(n) : n \in \mathbb{N})$ denote a sequence of nonnegative integers. Let $0.a(1)a(2)...$ denote the real number obtained by concatenating the digit expansions, in a fixed base, of consecutive entries of $(a(n) : n \in \mathbb{N})$.…

We study a particular chip-firing process on an infinite path graph. At any time when there are at least $a+b$ chips at a vertex, $a$ chips fire to the left and $b$ chips fire to the right. We describe the final state of this process when…

Generative semantic hashing is a promising technique for large-scale information retrieval thanks to its fast retrieval speed and small memory footprint. For the tractability of training, existing generative-hashing methods mostly assume a…

We construct meta-intransitive systems of independent random variables of any finite order from basic tuple of random variables which generalize intransitive dice. Under this construction, the equality of some linear functional is…

The induction principle for natural numbers expresses that when a property holds for some natural number a and is hereditary, then it holds for all numbers greater than or equal to a. We present a similar principle for real numbers.

We propose two families of tests for the classical goodness-of-fit problem to univariate normality. The new procedures are based on $L^2$-distances of the empirical zero-bias transformation to the normal distribution or the empirical…

We obtain the empirical strong law of large numbers, empirical Glivenko-Cantelli theorem, central limit theorem, functional central limit theorem for various nonparametric Bayesian priors which include the Dirichlet process with general…

Based on deleting-item central limit theory, the classical Donsker's theorem of partial-sum process of independent and identically distributed (i.i.d.) random variables is extended to incomplete partial-sum process. The incomplete…

In this article, we introduce a non Gaussian long memory process constructed by the aggregation of independent copies of a fractional L\'evy Ornstein-Uhlenbeck process with random coefficients. Several properties and a limit theorem are…

A Friedman number is a positive integer which is the result of an expression combining all of its own digits by use of the four basic operations, exponentiation and digit concatenation. A "nice" Friedman number is a Friedman number for…

G-Brownian motion has a very rich and interesting new structure which nontrivially generalizes the classical one. Its quadratic variation process is also a continuous process with independent and stationary increments. We prove a…

D. Bailey and R. E. Crandall recently formulated a "Hypothesis A", which provides a general principle to explain the (conjectured) normality of constants like pi or log 2 and other related numbers, to base 2 or other integer bases. This…

In this paper, we consider an inference problem for an Ornstein-Uhlenbeck process driven by a general one-dimensional centered Gaussian process $(G_t)_{t\ge 0}$. The second order mixed partial derivative of the covariance function $ R(t,\,…

Various specifiable combinatorial structures, with d extensive parameters, can be exactly sampled both by the recursive method, with linear arithmetic complexity if a heavy preprocessing is performed, or by the Boltzmann method, with…

We study stochastic billiards on general tables: a particle moves according to its constant velocity inside some domain ${\mathcal D} \subset {\mathbb R}^d$ until it hits the boundary and bounces randomly inside according to some reflection…

In the article integer divisibility properties and related prime factors natural number representation concepts have been defined over the whole infinite hyperoperation hierarchy. The definitions have been made across and above of unique…

The sequential form of a statement $\forall\xi(B(\xi) \rightarrow \exists\zeta A(\xi,\zeta))$ is the statement $\forall\xi(\forall n B(\xi_n) \rightarrow \exists\zeta \forall n A(\xi_n,\zeta_n))$. There are many classically true statements…

It is well known that Sturmian sequences are the aperiodic sequences that are balanced over a 2-letter alphabet. They are also characterized by their complexity: they have exactly $(n+1)$ factors of length $n$. One possible generalization…

In this paper we give a new proof of the second order Boltzmann-Gibbs principle. The proof does not impose the knowledge on the spectral gap inequality for the underlying model and it relies on a proper decomposition of the antisymmetric…
