A new type of stochastic dependence for a sequence of random variables is introduced and studied. Precisely, (X_n)_{n\geq 1} is said to be conditionally identically distributed (c.i.d.), with respect to a filtration (G_n)_{n\geq 0}, if it…
T. Erd\'{e}lyi, A.P. Magnus and P. Nevai conjectured that for $\alpha, \beta \ge - {1/2} ,$ the orthonormal Jacobi polynomials ${\bf P}_k^{(\alpha, \beta)} (x)$ satisfy the inequality \begin{equation*} \max_{x \in…
The sharpest known high probability generalization bounds for uniformly stable algorithms (Feldman, Vondr\'{a}k, 2018, 2019), (Bousquet, Klochkov, Zhivotovskiy, 2020) contain a generally inevitable sampling error term of order…
Using proof-theoretic methods in the style of proof mining, we give novel computationally effective limit theorems for the convergence of the Cesaro-means of certain sequences of random variables. These results are intimately related to…
We obtain a uniform ergodic theorem for the sequence $\frac1{s(n)} \sum_{k=0}^n(\varDelta s)(n-k)\,T^k$, where $\varDelta$ is the inverse of the endomorphism on the vector space of scalar sequences which maps each sequence into the sequence…
For uniformly chosen random $\alpha \in [0,1]$, it is known the probability the $n^{\rm th}$ digit of the continued-fraction expansion, $[\alpha]_n$ converges to the Gauss-Kuzmin distribution $\mathbb{P}([\alpha]_n = k) \approx \log_2 (1 +…
Consider the quadratic form $\beta = {\bf y}^* ({\bf YY}^* + \rho {\bf I})^{-1} {\bf y}$ where $\rho$ is a positive number, where ${\bf y}$ is a random vector and ${\bf Y}$ is a $N \times K$ random matrix both having independent elements…
We consider the gradient field model in $\left[ -N,N\right] ^{2}\cap \mathbb{Z}^{2}$ with a uniformly convex interaction potential. Naddaf-Spencer \cite{NS} and Miller \cite{Mi} proved that the macroscopic averages of linear statistics of…
Concentration inequalities for the sample mean, like those due to Bernstein, Hoeffding, and Bentkus, are valid for any sample size but overly conservative, yielding confidence intervals that are unnecessarily wide. The central limit theorem…
The Erdos-Kac theorem, a foundational result in probabilistic number theory, states that the number of prime factors of an integer follows a Gaussian distribution. In this paper we develop and analyze probabilistic models for "random…
Let $\{X(t):t\in\mathbb R_+\}$ be a stationary Gaussian process with almost surely (a.s.) continuous sample paths, $\mathbb E X(t) = 0$, $\mathbb E X^2(t) = 1$ and correlation function satisfying (i) $r(t) = 1 - C|t|^{\alpha} +…
In the realm of Boltzmann-Gibbs statistical mechanics there are three well known isomorphic connections with random geometry, namely (i) the Kasteleyn-Fortuin theorem which connects the $\lambda \to 1$ limit of the $\lambda$-state Potts…
Let $n$ be a sufficiently large natural number and let $B$ be an origin-symmetric convex body in $R^n$ in the $\ell$-position, and such that the normed space $(R^n,\|\cdot\|_B)$ admits a $1$-unconditional basis. Then for any…
We study a class of one-dimensional particle systems with true (Bird type) binary interactions, which includes Kac's model of the Boltzmann equation and nonlinear equations for the evolution of wealth distribution arising in kinetic…
We identify an equality between two objects arising from different contexts of mathematical physics: Kahane's Gaussian Multiplicative Chaos ($GMC^\gamma$) on the circle, and the Circular Beta Ensemble $(C\beta E)$ from Random Matrix Theory.…
We study the frequentist properties of Bayesian statistical inference for the stochastic block model, with an unknown number of classes of varying sizes. We equip the space of vertex labellings with a prior on the number of classes and,…
Objective Bayesian inference procedures are derived for the parameters of the multivariate random effects model generalized to elliptically contoured distributions. The posterior for the overall mean vector and the between-study covariance…
There are many generalizations of the Erd\H{o}s-Ko-Rado theorem. We give new results (and problems) concerning families of $t$-intersecting $k$-element multisets of an $n$-set and point out connections to coding theory and classical…
We investigate the asymptotic behavior of the number of parts $K_n$ in the Ewens--Pitman partition model under the regime where the diversity parameter is scaled linearly with the sample size, that is, $\theta = \lambda n$ for some~$\lambda…
We estimate multiplicative character sums taken on the values of a non-homogeneous Beatty sequence $\{[\alpha n + \beta] : n =1,2,... \}$, where $\alpha,\beta\in\R$, and $\alpha$ is irrational. Our bounds are nontrivial over the same short…
