We consider the expected length of the longest common subsequence between two random words of lengths $n$ and $(1-\varepsilon)kn$ over $k$-symbol alphabet. It is well-known that this quantity is asymptotic to $\gamma_{k,\varepsilon} n$ for…

We establish limit theorems that describe the asymptotic local and global geometric behaviour of random enriched trees considered up to symmetry. We apply these general results to random unlabelled weighted rooted graphs and uniform random…

We characterize the growth of the Sibson and Arimoto mutual informations and $\alpha$-maximal leakage, of any order that is at least unity, between a random variable and a growing set of noisy, conditionally independent and…

For a permuton $\mu$ let $H_n(\mu)$ denote the Shannon entropy of the sampling distribution of $\mu$ on $n$ points. We investigate the asymptotic growth of $H_n(\mu)$ for a wide class of permutons. We prove that if $\mu$ has a non-vanishing…

For a word $\pi$ and integer $i$, we define $L^i(\pi)$ to be the length of the longest subsequence of the form $i(i+1)\cdots j$, and we let $L(\pi):=\max_i L^i(\pi)$. In this paper we estimate the expected values of $L^1(\pi)$ and $L(\pi)$…

We derive the asymptotic distribution of the total length $L_n$ of a $\operatorname {Beta}(2-\alpha,\alpha)$-coalescent tree for $1<\alpha<2$, starting from $n$ individuals. There are two regimes: If $\alpha\le1/2(1+\sqrt{5})$, then $L_n$…

In this paper we consider the normalized lengths of the factors of some factorizations of random words. First, for the \emph{Lyndon factorization} of finite random words with $n$ independent letters drawn from a finite or infinite totally…

We study the asymptotic behavior of the free cumulants (in the sense of free probability theory of Voiculescu) of Jucys--Murphy elements--or equivalently--of the transition measure associated with a Young diagram. We express these cumulants…

It is well-known that for a quickly increasing sequence $(n_k)_{k \geq 1}$ the functions $(\cos 2 \pi n_k x)_{k \geq 1}$ show a behavior which is typical for sequences of independent random variables. If the growth condition on $(n_k)_{k…

Let $X=(X_i)_{i\ge 1}$ and $Y=(Y_i)_{i\ge 1}$ be two sequences of independent and identically distributed (iid) random variables taking their values, uniformly, in a common totally ordered finite alphabet. Let LCI$_n$ be the length of the…

Erd\H{o}s and Szekeres showed that given a permutation $p$ of $[n]$, and the sequence defined by \newline $(p(1), p(2), \ldots, p(n))$, there exists either a decreasing or increasing subsequence, not necessarily contiguous, of length at…

Let $P_{n,k}$ be the number of permutations $\pi$ on [n]={1, 2,..., n} such that the length of the longest increasing subsequences of $\pi$ equals k, and let $M_{2n, k}$ be the number of matchings on [2n] with crossing number k. Define…

We analyse the asymptotic behaviour of the probability of observing the expected number of successes at each stage of a sequence of nested Bernoulli trials. Our motivation is the attempt to give a genuinely frequentist interpretation to the…

We study the asymptotic behavior of two statistics defined on the symmetric group S_n when n tends to infinity: the number of elements of S_n having k records, and the number of elements of S_n for which the sum of the positions of their…

The article studies the almost surely asymptotics of extreme values $\bar{\xi}_n = \max_{1\leq i \leq n} \xi_i$, where $ \xi , \xi_1 , \xi_2 , \ldots$ are discrete identically distributed random variables. One of the main results on this…

In this paper, we provide new approximation algorithms for dynamic variations of the longest increasing subsequence (\textsf{LIS}) problem, and the complementary distance to monotonicity (\textsf{DTM}) problem. In this setting, operations…

We consider uniform random permutations drawn from a family enumerated through generating trees. We develop a new general technique to establish a central limit theorem for the number of consecutive occurrences of a fixed pattern in such…

We show that a wide variety of generalized increasing subsequence problems admit a one parameter family of extensions for which we can exactly compute the mean length of the longest increasing subsequence. By the nature of the extension,…

Let $X_1, X_2, ..., X_n, ... $ be a sequence of iid random variables with values in a finite alphabet $\{1,...,m\}$. Let $LI_n$ be the length of the longest increasing subsequence of $X_1, X_2, ..., X_n.$ We express the limiting…

The purpose of this article is to present a general method to find limiting laws for some renormalized statistics on random permutations. The model considered here is Ewens sampling model, which generalizes uniform random permutations. We…
