Let $P^{\left(\frac 12\right)}(n)$ denote the middle prime factor of $n$ (taking into account multiplicity). More generally, one can consider, for any $\alpha \in (0,1)$, the $\alpha$-positioned prime factor of $n$, $P^{(\alpha)}(n)$. It…
We establish results with an arithmetic flavor that generalize the polynomial multidimensional Szemeredi theorem and related multiple recurrence and convergence results in ergodic theory. For instance, we show that in all these statements…
The central limit theorem provides the theoretical foundation for the universality of the normal distribution: under broad conditions, the asymptotic distribution of a sum of independent random variables approaches a Gaussian. Yet, physical…
This paper introduces a framework for Chance-Constrained Optimization with Complex Variables, addressing complex linear programming for both individual and joint probabilistic constraints in the complex domain. We first analyze the 3CP…
We investigate the limiting behavior of multiple ergodic averages along sparse sequences evaluated at prime numbers. Our sequences arise from smooth and well-behaved functions that have polynomial growth. Central to this topic is a…
Although the prime numbers are deterministic, they can be viewed, by some measures, as pseudo-random numbers. In this article, we numerically study the pair statistics of the primes using statistical-mechanical methods, especially the…
The results of the study provide guidelines for the development and applications of algorithms. When the number of steps for calculating an assumption tends to infinity, probability theory can be applied to predict whether the assumption…
Riesz space (non-pointwise) generalizations for iterative processes are given for the concepts of recurrence, first recurrence and conditional ergodicity. Riesz space conditional versions of the Poincar\'{e} Recurrence Theorem and the Kac…
Let $X$ be a one dimensional positive recurrent diffusion with initial distribution $\nu$ and invariant probability $\mu$. Suppose that for some $p> 1$, $\exists a\in\R$ such that $\forall x\in\R, \E_x T_a^p<\infty$ and $\E_\nu…
In this paper, explicit error bounds are derived in the approximation of rank $k$ projections of certain $n$-dimensional random vectors by standard $k$-dimensional Gaussian random vectors. The bounds are given in terms of $k$, $n$, and a…
The entropy of an ergodic finite-alphabet process can be computed from a single typical sample path x_1^n using the entropy of the k-block empirical probability and letting k grow with $n$ roughly like log n. We further assume that the…
The need to condition distributional properties such as expectation, variance, and entropy arises in algorithmic fairness, model simplification, robustness and many other areas. At face value however, distributional properties are not…
We consider the variable selection problem, which seeks to identify important variables influencing a response $Y$ out of many candidate features $X_1, \ldots, X_p$. We wish to do so while offering finite-sample guarantees about the…
Let $f$ be a primitive positive definite integral binary quadratic form of discriminant $-D$ and let $\pi_f(x)$ be the number of primes up to $x$ which are represented by $f$. We prove several types of upper bounds for $\pi_f(x)$ within a…
Currently there is no known efficient formula for primes. Besides that, prime numbers have great importance in e.g., information technology such as public-key cryptography, and their position and possible or impossible functional generation…
This paper makes the following conjecture: For every prime $p$ there exists a positive integer $x$ with $\left\lceil \frac{p}{4} \right\rceil \leq x \leq \left\lceil \frac{p}{2} \right\rceil$ and a positive divisor $d|x^2$ so that either:…
On the twisted Fermat cubic, an elliptic divisibility sequence arises as the sequence of denominators of the multiples of a single rational point. We prove that the number of prime terms in the sequence is uniformly bounded. When the…
The Prime Number Theorem states that the number of primes in $\{1,\ldots,x\}$, denoted $\pi(x)$, is approximately $\frac{x}{\ln(x)}$. In this paper, we investigate the distribution of primes for domains other than $\N$. First we look at…
We consider the Gaussian limit law for the distribution of the middle prime factor of an integer, defined according to multiplicity or not. We obtain an optimal bound for the speed of convergence, thereby improving on previous estimates…
Let $\mathcal{P}$ denote the set of all primes. In 1950, P. Erd\H{o}s conjectured that if $c$ is an arbitrarily given constant, $x$ is sufficiently large and $a_1,\dots , a_t$ are positive integers with $a_1<a_2<\cdot\cdot\cdot<a_t\leqslant…
